Description
The text in this comic is my favorite quote from Satoru Iwata. Maybe many others like this quote as well!Shame on me for being a month late! If it weren't for this man, I wouldn't be drawing Nintendo comics today; he played a pivotal role in making video games an irreplaceable part of my life. Many other people have much more eloquently expressed how Iwata has impacted their lives. Be that as it may, here's my own farewell to Iwata.

Heβs up in heaven, looking down on Nintendo and fans alike from a replica of Peachβs castle, made of clouds.

Nintendo has put a tribute to Iwata in the Switch. In every one, there's a NES game called Golf, the very first game Iwata programmed. The only way to access it is by using the Joy-Cons(Detached from the console) and doing his 'Direct' motion on July 11th, the day of his death.

It's been a year and I still cry at the thought of his legacy. And concerning I'm a 14 year-old teenage male, this shouldn't be the case.
And, hey, I'm a year late for a video.

Satoru Iwata, a V.I.P (Very Important Player) will be greatly missed... May your ride on the Rainbow Road be enjoyable and may Lady Palutena treat you well in Skyworld... Thank you for giving us the joy and childhood of video gaming throughout the long years... Rest in peace and Palutena bless your gaming heart

His ride in Rainbow Road will be great. Everyone else's ride, however... Let's just say the game's rigged.

A very fine tribute for a very fine man!
Responsible for some big titles getting the chance to grace our lives!
His and his team-mates/workmates are one reasons we have the ever cheerful Kirby series and others as well.
Satoru is the only Corporate executive and company president that I know of, that took a personal 50% pay-cut instead of laying off a 1/4 or 1/3 of his workforce during these tough years!......
I wish our Country's CEO'S were that noble in business life.....
P.S: You think your late?
I'm still not finished on mine..... I'm still stuck in the drawing phase!.....

This is a very good comic. While I never actually met him in person (obviously), I know he was a very inspiring individual.

The feels that this comic gives ; u ;
I have to agree with you on the quote, it has to be my favorite as well~! I honestly didn't know that Iwata was President of Nintendo until I learned about his death.
But I have to agree with MintyZedGrimes on this, he didn't deserve to go through cancer. It's horrible to go through something like that ; m ;

Correction Iwata didn't creat Legend of Zelda Shigeru Miyamoto did also he didn't create the Kirby series Masahiro Sakurai created the character Kirby when he was just 19 years old. Iwata co developed the first Snash Bros. game with Sakurai.

No you did not. You said Iwata made Kirby and Smash Brothers, but Sakurai made Kirby on his own before joining Nintendo and also made Smash Brothers.

Actually Sakurai made Kirby and brought him to Nintendo, who accepted Kirby as a video game character.
