Just saw this on Twitter thanks to my friend Rudrake.

There isn't much known as far as I can tell. I'm not a religious man, but if you are, I request you pray for his family.

This is a sad day for Nintendo.

Damn, that's a real shame- I didn't realize he was that ill. Certainly an end of an era for Nintendo.

I admit to saying that I'd like to see a shakedown of Nintendo's hierarchy, but I didn't want it to happen like this.

Part of me feels super fucking shitty.

Rest in peace, Iwata. I honestly would never expect a 55 would die. Yamauchi died last year, however, he was around 80 years old so he lived a long life.

Also, Iwata died from bile duct cancer.

I know, right? I mean, if someone said to me about 20-40 years from now that Iwata has passed away, I'd believe. But at age 55? That doesn't sound very believable.

I really feel for the guys over at Vinesauce right now. Especially Jen, since she lost her mother recently to the same type of cancer.

They're in the middle of their charity stream that they'll be donating to cancer research, and then this news drops.

I don't have words.

Still though, as hard as it is to take this kind of news, they're actually pretty fortunate to have been doing their charity stream. I mean, the support that will roll in because of this will be massive.

Also, they say the bile duct growth killed him, but really it was the Metroid fans.

Too young that's for sure. I had no idea his role in Gold and Silver. The big thing about G&S that I loved was the fact your could revisit Kanto and battle more gym leaders.

I'm genuinely shocked. I don't get shocked often.

I started listening to this because I heard /v/ embedded the song and now I just can't even right now.



The "I miss you" at 5:10 hits me right where it hurts the most.

KP: I hope they do get more donations with this. If we can finally get rid of cancer, then we won't have to worry anymore about deaths like this anymore.

Wow, I was not expecting this. This does not feel real. I didn't know he even had cancer.

RIP Satoru Iwata and best wishes to his family and friends.

The odd thing is NoA hasn't responded yet. The NoJ has of course, but not NoA.

Well, this seemingly nice morning turned to shit really quickly. Saw this in Trel's streaming thread first but I actually had to confirm it on another forum because I just couldn't believe it.

Something I just found: learned about Aerosprays in Splatoon.

Also if you haven't seen it someone compiled a collection of the Splatoon miiverse postings here.

Thank you Satoru Iwata for giving me the best childhood I ever had, growing up playing the NES. He left us too soon, my childhood was shitty but the NES helped me coped with it.

I hope the big N makes an Amiibo figure out of him... ^_^

I don't think they are totally unprepared for Iwata being "hit by a bus" as they say in business speak, since he's been hospitalized several times before over it. I heard about it him being sick and in hospital few times in over the last year or so, but they never tried to publically make a big deal out of it. Which is why it kinda came out as a shock as it did still. :(
