where's the music
How important is Mother 1 to Earthbound? I want to play Earthbound to honor this man. I can't imagine it's too important due to the fact that we never officially got the game until a month ago but autism being what it is I worry I'm going to miss something. I do have the game but I wanted to go straight to Earthbound right now.
another one?

>>302350417As a guy who hasnt played Nintendo since 2001, can someone tell me what this guy did?

Please don't leave us anytime soon Mr. Miyamoto.
Like I'd give a fuck.
>>302350417Fuck me, gaming is really dying
Continuing dumping my Iwata folderHere's Mr Iwata giving the thumbs up after E3 2012
>>302350463Gone, thankfully.I can appreciate the gesture, but with no easy way to turn it off it's better off gone.
>>302350467Eh, Mother 1 is nice but skippable. I'd play it after EarthBound and 3.RIP. Fucking sucks getting off work to this.
Why did you do this Anon ??
What if Iwata killed himself after disappointing millions of fans and they're just protecting his family from the shame?
RIP IN PEACE ;A;
>>302350538>not for U
Rip in peace, Iwata sama.
>>302350417>dies at 55He died and took those dubs with him.
Goodnight sweet prince
Don't worry iwata understands the shitposting
>>302350417shit company shit president
Rest In Peace, Iwata.
>>302349078See >>302342495 (You).I could make a bigger list of his accomplishments.But Iwata was a programmer and a developer. He absolutely loved computers and videogames. And his vision for Nintendo was indeed to remain videogame company and a strong center of videogames. And that's not an entirely popular mindset in Japan currently.Company after company in Japan are heading in new directions, and shareholders wanted Nintendo to do so as well. But Iwata didn't.Iwata believed in videogames and believed that there was still hope for videogames if you just went about it the right way. I can only pray that whoever steps up next has the same general idea and vision.But even then they will have lost one of their most talented programmers ever.
>>302350556see >>302350536
Put another song. Also board call. /m/ and /a/ here.
hahahah, who cares?
too young (︶︹︺)
>Microsoft hasn't said anythingwhat fags
Their E3 was so bad it killed him. Damn shame.
>>302349593In many cases it turned into a North Koreaesque thing where people try to show off sadness to get social cred in biggere and more elaborate shows of despair.There's the right way to mourn then there's the "have you no shame" or "show off" way.
>>302350618posting superior version
>>302350517
Where does nintendo go from hereWho will replace him
With Iwata gone, what will happen to Nintendo? Can Reggie suplex all of the retarded shareholders by himself?;_;
I FUCKING BOUGHT A PLAYSTATION TV TODAY BECAUSE IT WAS ON SALE!I KILLED HIM, DIDN'T I?

Mr Iwata peeking at you
>>302350361
I MISS YOU IWATA
>>302350467Not very. All 3 of the games are really great, though. I'd recommend playing all of them, but Mother 1 was my least favorite gameplay-wise.
Now i'm freethere are no strings on me

>>302350684what if it was yakuza...remember this is just after the shares fell in value because of the E3.
Goodbye Iwata.
>>302350538UNDERSTAND WHAT??? I WANT TO KNOW!!!
>>302350417Iwata died just I have to go to a clinical study tomorrow; was confident but now I am scared...
This whole thing is fucking me up.Not just because Iwata was a great guy (though he was), but because he wasn't that old and looked to be in good health.I don't know, gets me thinking about my own mortality. We all tell ourselves "I'm not going to die until I'm really old, and by then I'll be ready," but that very well might not be the case, is it?
>>302350667/mu/ reporting. Kirby's music is so wonderful. Many of the games he was involved in had great music - Animal Crossing, Pikmin, Pokemon GSC. RIP.
Mr Iwata posing on the stairs
If you’re feeling down please look at mario. He is giving you the thumbs up. Everything will be ok. It ok. Please be happy. I love you.

>>302350714He died July 11 in Japanese time, so probably late Friday/early Saturday for 'Murica. Just took time for it to become public.
>>302350615Is there a translation for mother 3 yet? Earthbound was one of my childhood defining games. I made friends with it, grew up and explored life with it. I never played the "sequel" as I can't read japanese.
>>302350417Good bye Mr. Iwata.May your soul rest in peace.
>>302350835
I'm gonna crush it at the gym tomorrow for you, Mr. Iwata
I actually cried.I was getting choked up and suddenly started crying, not wanting to hold it in.Dammit, this is the end of an era. He was Miyamoto's junior. He lost what may as well have been a younger brother. And Sakurai, an older brother.
This seems to be the last sticky...He will still live in our hearts.
>>302350835Seriously, what's the fucking point of the sticky if they're just going to let it spill out?Fucking hell..
>>302350564I can never read these images. What happened?
>>302350712Reggie isn't going to do a fucking thing, he's a westerner. Head of NoA is as far as any westerner will ever get in Nintendo.
>>302350848Good riddance.
he was more than a programmer or a businessman. he had basically become a mascot for nintendo. he was willing to put himself out there and be apart of the skits and the presentations. most ceos don't bother with shit like that. you could tell he truly enjoyed what he did.rest in peace. we took you for granted. we understand now.
>>302350564What exactly happened here?
>>302350517holy fucking shit....
>>302350860Because of the occasion I won't respond to you the way I usually do /co/ but I'm going to say in nicest terms please get out and go back there.

>>302350517great sadness
>mfw /v/ was unanimously sad about Robin Williams' death but shitposters are running rampant when motherfucking IWATA passed away.
>>302350592It's always been dying mate.>>302350661But his resistance to modern trends hurts him heavily.It's like Nintendo refuses to believe that people emulate games on there phones/tablets (both with controllers and touch screen). Refusing to attempt to tap into that market will hurt them down the line if the new xeo decides to stay the course.>>302349593In many cases it turned into a North Koreaesque thing where people try to show off sadness to get social cred in bigger and more elaborate shows of despair. Fortunately the gaming industry is much more mature then the people their consumers tbh.There's the right way to mourn then there's the "have you no shame" way.

Mr Iwata being funny
I guess the time is right to post this classic: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/113889The guy who made this is dead too
>>302350517Woooow
>>302351093No shit people die every day do you want a fucking cookie for that rationalization? We as a culture have learned that we can't mourn every death and still be okay. And there is nothing wrong with an idea like that unless your moral system is seriously fucked. That doesn't mean that when somebody important to a lot of people die that it is suddenly hypocritical. That grandfather that just died or the soker that just suffered from cancer have no ties to me, so I have no reason to mourn them. On the other hand, somebody that contributed to a large part of my childhood AND had a name died, so it is completely okay to mourn.
Was Iwata married or not?

Mr Iwata having fun at E3 2013...
FI've always disagreed with Iwata on where to take Nintendo, but he was a good guy and cared about the company, games, and their fans, I'm sorry to see him go. I guess it must have been late stage cancer that even the surgery and chemo (I presume, seeing how much weight he's lost) that got him. Best of luck to his family and friends.Maybe, it was just his time, please understand.
literally who?
Just this morning I was thinking of buying and playing Earthbound for the first time. What a coincidence. ;_;

>His programming is what let them put Kanto into Pokemon GSCFinding Kanto was amazing for me. So that's one happy Childhood memory he's directly responsible for.Sayonara, Iwata-San.
Shit. 55 is way too young.Wa wearing a new Nintendo shirt today and people kept saying how much they loved it.Damn. He was just at the E3 thing.. and in puppet form too.May he find that smiling Lakitu cloud in the sky to soar on.
>>302351275Satoru Iwata
>All my heroes are dying and there's nothing I can do about it>even the ones who are still alive are ones I'll never get to meetI'm sorry
Could the E3 reaction really have contributed to his decline? You know how mental health is half the battle with any illness, what if he really just gave up and despaired after the backlash?
>>302351360Could you imagine that he was going to die in 2 years
It's time to start a new adventure Mr. Iwata.
>>302350564Do you know if he ever got it? Did you get any reply?
How do we kill cancer
>>302350531You forgot Smash.

>>302350582Appreciate him every day, anon. Miyamoto will unfortunately die in our lifetime, but we shouldn't wait until he's gone to remember what incredible things he helped bring to gaming
>The NX won't be delivered DIRECTRY to usWhat are the chances he recorded one last Direct to be released posthumously or something like that?
Who else is playing a game to honor the memory of this man? Downloaded Earthbound on VC from Club Nintendo. Lot of memories with that game.
Is there anyone in the industry who's death would even have this close of an impact?I don't even think Gaben's would
I was not prepared for this.
Satoru Iwata deserves the Nintendo Seal of Quality.

>>302351502Stop please :[

I understood Mr. Iwata. I understood ;_;
>>302350417FUCK I THOUGHT THIS WAS FAKE TILL I CAME TO /v/ IM NOT EVEN A NINTENDO FAG BUT FUCKING SHIT THIS IS DEPRESSING. IWATA DID NOTHING WRONG. HE HAD A HARD LIFE. YOU ONLY HAD TO UNDERSTAND
>he died knowing his fans were disappointed and thinking he was hatedI mean I know Nintendo's been falling short of my expectations lately but damn...;_;
I feel empty guys, I can't stop crying.....everything is going dark. I can't even play games any more...he was only 55 IT'S NOT GODDAMN RIGHT.
>>302351556I cannot think of any CEO that is closet to their audience as much as Iwata.I love his interviews and presentations. They were amateurish in a good way.
Wonder who will take his place? Myamoto?

>>302351481I can't see Iwata giving into despair. He always put on such a brave and strong front.However, the stress probably was a contributing factor to his death.

Goodbye Mr. Iwata.

I feel so hollow right now...
>>302352284Yeah. Given life expectancy and all that jazz.He was in the autumn of his life, he could have had 20 more years.
>>302351902>mfw his photos in the recent Iwata Asks pagesHe got so fucking thinHow did we not know
Never owned a Nintendo console in my life, but I'm still sad.F.
>>302352169fucki mean I'm already in a bad way but thisthis onejust...fuck....i can't carry this weight alone, anons.i can't do it alone
Maybe now Nintendo will suck less.
God, the next Nintendo Direct is going to be really fucking depressing, isn't it?
>got to see an oddball original IP become a success
>>302350564I remember this
Mr Iwata dressed in leather
I blame each and every one of you. All he wanted was for you to understand..... WHY COULDN'T YOU UNDERSTAND?!?!
>>302351556CEO? No. Gaben's will be big, but the guy is a fat lard and totally has it coming. Iwata was supposedly perfectly healthy until cancer came along and did its thing and murdered him.Miyamoto will be the biggest one in gaming no doubt.
WHAT THE FUCKI just got home and I find this shit jesus christ why
>>302352278>Didn't even say any words of condolences for Iwata>Spins the fake tweets into her advantage by playing the victim card, againGood job idiots, you just gave her another opportunity for PR.
REPORTING IN FROM /INT/
It's a damn shame.We need more people who cared about the medium as much as he did.Say what you want about Nintendo, but at least he loved what he did.
Guys I am getting legit sad about this.Why? WHYYYYYYY?Is it because this is just the beginning for that generation? Like the death of famous film stars affected our parents, the death of amazing game developers will affect us, their memories will soon be lost into the annuls of history.
This is no excuse for their weak e3 performance. I expect them to tank even further in the following months. Investors on suicide watch.

I will repeat this a hundred fold I don't careIf there is anything wrong with you, tell your neighbour, tell your friends, tell your family, anybody who can provide a shoulder and a ear.
>>302352413NoA probably doesn't have any of their website/social media staff on duty at this time on Sunday.Then again even Sony has posted their condolences on the PlayStation Twitter so...
>>302352278When has that stopped us before from making more, spreading it like the plague, and make her seem like she is backpeddling to get out of it hopefully ruining and finally getting some of her fans to leave her.She should of died in every parallel universe that exists just so that Ieata could of lived.
>>302352440Yeah, I was about to play some video games, but this ruined my completely ruined my mood

My body wasn't ready. Splurged out content, too bad I never draw anymore.
>>302352248What was it?
Mr Iwata with a gym green screen
I need to get a tube TV to make a setup like this for Iwata and play Mother
>>302352272It's a fake tweet from Anita saying Iwata was responsible for misogyny in the industry.
Don't worry guys,In a parallel universe next to ours, Iwata is still alive and Nintendo in this universe is the top selling console of every generations.
does anyone know what it says in the frame?
I wasn't crying until I came to these stickies. Somehow, though, I think I feel a little better.

video games are over
>mfw I both shitpost and mournpost.
>>302352667IT'S FAKE.
ugh, that's fucking horrible. He was getting thinner & thinner each direct, so I'm not surprised. Its a shame, he worked on so many nintendo games before becoming president, & was such a programing wizard it's said he went to gamefreak, cleaned up their sloppy code, & so much room was left on the cartridge they were able to fit all of the red & blue map into pokemon gold & silver.He also worked on stuff like earthbound when he was younger, & having someone who was actually a coder who physically made games as the president of nintendo was always a good thing. Now there's nothing to stop them from going full mobile games.
>>302352667holy shit, that has to be fake
>>302352463Well, we did.
Mr Iwata presenting something
He just wanted to make people happy.

You are now living in a post-Iwata world.
>>302352667It's fake, you dumbass.
>>302352551you're a good person, anon.
>>302352278>Instead of giving condolences to Iwata she just takes the opportunity to further cry about how tough it is for her.I will always loathe her. She just doesn't understand. She has absolutely no empathy. She thinks only for herself.
First moot no this
>>302350667Fellow /m/ and /pol/ here.
>>302351402thats what gets me the most to be honest.

I must know if I am banned
>>302351402Man, I really don't want that to be the last thing he remembered when he passed. It'd be nice if it was him and his family gathered around his hospital bed playing vidya. I think fitting way to go, though I'm not sure a happy one, if such a thing can even be so.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvpRdZJpZnUThe End...?
>>302352483He also got to see the NWC be a huge success.
>>302352629It's probably actually real and she took it down once the heat started.
He.... he just wanted you to understand.....
>>302352714No one cares. Spread it anyway. Let's vent our anger on her.
If he's so great, how did he let the Wii U exist?
>boot up Wii-U to play something in his memory>remember I have Balloon Fight because they sold it for a penny at one point This game is infuriating, but fun once you get a hang of the character's heavy weight momentum You could tell there was stuff going for him from playing this game
I wonder how that Russian guy feels.
Wait whatThis came out of no where. He had cancer?
>>302352802What the fuck chance do we have in this world
>>302352631Thanks for this, bro.
>>302352727I'll just choose to remember him by this image.I can't bear to see how shit he looked these past few months.
inb4 Metroid Prime Federation was the actual cause of his death.
>>302350417IWATA COME BACK! I'LL EVEN BUY A FUCKING WII U AND SUPER MARIO MAKER WITH SMASH JUST FUCKING COME BACK!

>>302352802Wow this guy completely called it a year ago. God damn.
>>302352540People will mourn, memorialize and move on then it will all fade away.
I'm gonna miss his engrish and his style of presentations. The next direct is going to be so sad to watch.
Mr Iwata, Miyamoto and Reggie with Pikmin plushies
Is this God doing?He want to save nintendo from amiibo and mobile shit?
>>302351485damn you, hit me hard and idky >>302351623his face lol ahahaha...T-T damn, found out when i was eating with my family, they came down to see me and i end up crying a bit.

>>302351556Maybe Miyamoto, although it would be more sadness than an impact to the industry as he's mostly retired these days.It's sad though, Iwata died so young. He honestly made my childhood as a developer and as an executive and I'm sure the same is true for many of us. RIP
>>302350417>http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2015/150713e.pdfFucking japs, what an impersonal release.
>>302352284Go pave your cave, you filthy caveman
We've lost a member of the old guard.
>>302352278>Ignores Iwata's death>Spins the situation into another chance to garner sympathy for herselfJesus fucking christ. The nerve of this woman.Is she a narcissist?
>>302352278Christ, even when it's just a photoshop, she continues to make passive aggressive tweets. Tweet about my remark about your tweet if you agree.
>>302352667Obviously real and she just took it down once people started criticizing it.
Haven't owned a Nintendo system since the Wii, but still want to pay my respects to one of the most underrated programmers in the business... RIP Iwata you crazy lovable jap you ;__;F
I follow a lot of people who work at Nintendo on twitter, and most of them haven't tweeted at all.If me, a person who has never met Iwata personally, cried like a bitch, I can't imagine how someone who actually was with him at some point must feel right now.
rest in peace mr. iwata. I didn't always agree with everything nintendo did, but man, you did so much good alongside some of that stuff. I'm sorry you had to go so early, but your legacy won't die out.
>>302352375>no NessEarthbound is one of the biggest games he worked onKirby and Pokemon too
>>302352540Why wouldnt you be sad? Hes one of the most important figures in gaming history.
>>302351905He... he really cared about us.
>>302352918You had your chance.

>>302352481>>302352480>>302352270You know what, fuck you guys. Serisouly, I am actually mad right now. You sit here and shit post on /v/ so much that it has literally become your persona. I'm all for rivalry and competition, but it's cynical bastards like you that take it too far. You literally wish the death and failure of a rival company, even the president of said company, just so you can get your kicks. You're the reason these boards are a fucking cesspool. I hope you all die of rectal cancer.

https://twitter.com/PlayStation>Nintendo was literally beaten by Sony at announcing their own president's death to America
I'm in /sug/ right now and there are people mourning iwata
>>302351481Highly doubtful. The stress of running a company, sure. But people in positions like his learn to rise above criticism like that. Unless he was SERIOUSLY delicate and that considered with how the public felt, I doubt it had little to any impact.
>>302352278what a complete demon.
>>302351902
>>302352284With modern medicine, yes. He should have lived until at least 70. Only then will his age at death be even remotely acceptable to me, and even then, it doesn't make it hurt any less.
>>302353042I'm kind of surprised that NoA hasn't tweeted about this yet. Even PlayStation tweeted about it.

Mr Iwata announcing Monster Hunter exclusivity to 3DS
>>302352968I think we'll remember him, he kind of presided over the company during the period when our interest in video games became as high as it is. He's always been THE video game executive (with Reggie and Gaben) in my mind and I don't think that'll change
