It seems E3 2015 would be the last for Satoru Iwata as the Nintendo Co was announced dead today at the age 55. Iawata passed on July 11 from bile duct growth” is also known as Cholangiocarcinoma. This is a form of cancer with a high morality rate. Satoru Iwata underwent a surgery for the tumor but it was unsuccessful. To his family I say my condolences as Satoru himself I say rest peace good sir. Here is a little background incase all you can remember about the Iawata is that he would appear at conferences.
“Iwata joined Nintendo back in 1980s as a programmer for HAL Laboratory. He was involved in lot ot key projects of Nintendo including Kirby, Earthbound, Pokemon and many others. At Nintendo, Iwata also provided his expertise for games such as Zelda, Animal Crossing and many others.
Some of the key milestone Nintendo achieved under the leadership of Iwata are: He work behind two of the best and highest selling gaming console in history: “Wii, which has sold over 101 Million units and DS, which has sold over 154 million units”.
As always thank you for reading.
