I initially wanted to compile some heartwarming quotes about Satoru Iwata’s impact on the gaming world, but I was in way over my head. That may sound like a cop-out, but here’s the thing – he touched countless hearts during his lifetime. Not a single forum has been anything less than filled to the brim with intimate condolences since his passing.
Realizing that there was no way to narrow down the written accounts of his legacy, I instead gathered these fan-made images. Satoru Iwata didn’t leave anyone out of his journey to make great games, so I didn’t want to leave anyone out of this celebration of his life.
RIP Iwata-san. Here’s to making it past the final level.
