Satoru Iwata Passed Away on July 11th

I went on Miiverse to post my sadness, but the comment box was full, it's in my activity feed.
RIP Iwata, you were such an inspiration.
 
Oh my god I just knew...
RIP Iwata san, you will be missed :(
 
RIP, Satoru Iwata. I've loved Nintendo since I was old enough to hold an NES controller in my hand. If not for him, EarthBound, one of the games that changed my childhood, inspired me into the creative branches I enjoy, and continues to inspire me well into adulthood, never would have made it passed the programming stage. His hard work and dedication has brought me and countless others on this earth years of fun and a true passion for gaming. I would not be the same person that I am today without his efforts, time, and everything he has done to make games fun for everyone. Thank you, Iwata-san.

He's in a better place now, but he will be sorely missed. Thank you for all that you've done for us and my condolences to his family and friends for this immense loss. He was a great man and has left a great legacy.
 
Rest in peace Mr Iwata,
As of the 11th of July 2015, the gaming community has a huge hole in it, but he is now in a better place, and making everyone around him happy, just like he made us happy.
 
This man really raised the bar for what a CEO should be: engaging, selfless and kind. This is the man who took a 50% pay cut after the 3DS launch because of lackluster sales (to put it mildly), is the reason Kirby even exists, as well as Earthbound and I have no idea how Nintendo is going to fill his shoes.

As a gamer, he knew what fans wanted and always tried his best to keep us happy.
 
Rest in Peace Iwata. And thank you for giving the childhood that I've always wanted! :'(
 
He was so young and full of life... his memory will live on through the childhoods he created </3
 
Don't worry Iwata, you don't need to plead to us to understand, loyal fans have always understood.

R.I.P.
 
this is seriously so sad like wow i think im going to cry?? i loved him he was such an amazing person rip in peace
 
Sorry if this sounds extreme, but whoever was completely butthurt about E3 2015... I hope they now live with regret... I know the two happenings were not related... But I frankly don't care...

I was hoping for Animal Crossing for Nintendo Wii U at E3 2015, but before E3 started, I knew that if it was not revealed at E3... oh well... If I don't get a game that I'D LIKE at E3, life carries on.

But Iwata. Rest In Peace! You are AMAZING! :D

Did you say your sister? If yes, my sympathies are with you and whoever has lost someone dear to them.
