Well, we know that when a famous singer dies usually the sales skyrocket next day. When a famous actor dies the movies sales skyrocket . The death of a CEO may affect the sales of the company product? I don't remember any say when Steve Jobs died about apple products selling more. Give your opinions.

I just bought balloon fight on the virtual console in his memory. I'm sure others have probably done that also, but idk about nintendo sales as a whole and idc either. A death shouldn't be thought of as a way of boosting sales.
