R.I.P. I am truly sad to hear this is really happening. I really liked that man and I always will. Thank you Iwata-san for all those years of great passion and love to games!! I will always remember you!

Wow...RIP.

Thanks for some fun games and systems, Iwata. You've had quite an impact on the industry you loved.

Wow. Shocking news. Sad news. Rip.

Wow, this is some awful news to wake up to. Iwata had a direct hand in some of my favorite games growing up, and it's quite likely Nintendo is still alive and well thanks to the success of the Wii and 3DS under his watch. Thank you for the great times, Mr. Iwata.

neither are 99.999% of the people claiming to be christian as, for example, the worship on SUNday demonstrates so that's irrelevant

ot well that's sad to hear i didn't know the man personally but he's obviously had a profound impact on people

Moderated - Miguel_Zorro

its even more messed up when you consider all of the criticism that's been thrown his way recently

RIP, Satoru Iwata. Such a sad reminder that while we are always worrying about what we are going to play next, some people have more important battles ahead of them.

Just wanted to leave this, for helping dev EarthBound...

Once again, R.I.P. Iwata.

"I miss you."

Wow. This seriously caught me off guard. 55 is way too young. R.I.P Iwata and thank you for the countless memories of great games over the years!
