Seeming more and more to be legit, sorry to say but this is true.

Wow, at age 55. Sad to hear.

Naoto · July 12, 2015, 07:11:38 PM

Knew he had missed some events due to health complications, but.....fuck.

RIP Satoru Iwata, 1959 - 2015.

Maybe now they'll make some good games.

R o c k e t · July 12, 2015, 08:02:57 PM

Dang, at 55?

He will be missed

nosejob · July 12, 2015, 08:09:28 PM

He was a good dude, and had a positive influence on the gaming community. Definitely sad to hear as a Nintendo fan.

What a great man....lost.
Iwata, you will be missed.

Hopefully the man who takes his place can even begin to live up to him.

Miia · July 12, 2015, 08:29:18 PM

This legitimately makes me sad

Naoto · July 12, 2015, 08:34:44 PM

"Iwata voiced his puppet and participated in the E3 skits even though he knew he was dying..."

Should've called Wolverine to steal his healing factor.
