Re: Sega 3D Classics Developer Akira Saito Loses Battle With Cancer

James1993

He was only 43 years of age....
if it wasn`t for Akira Saito-san, who I didn`t even know was the main programmer, I (probably) wouldn`t own ANY of Sega`s Mega Drive games via the Wii Virtual console service. You are in heaven now where my grandparents are (I now only have one Grandmother) , Satoru Iwata and many key figures of the industry. I will ensure that today I will play many Sega games in your honor, not original but virtual console ones you programmed. I may even have enough to download everyone now as I have roughly 16,000 Nintendo Wii virtual console points.
Rest in peace Akira Saito-san , I wish all the very best for your family and friends.

Re: Nintendo Direct Broadcasts Will Continue Despite Iwata's Passing

James1993

Nintendo Direct will NEVER be the same again.
Will it be the same without Satoru Iwata san`s bow when he greeted?
Will it be the same without his wave goodbye?
Or HELL even the way he said "directly".
Even his glasses (I wish I was never prescribed them by the way).
Or even when he smiled slightly while waving in one of the last Nintendo Directs?

NEVERTHELESS, Nintendo Direct will continue.
Shigeru Miyamoto should present them.
My comment and the avatar, coincidence.

@RyanCraddock I think there is a good chance they will be in London? am I right? Ironically in 2003, I had the chance to meet Shigeru ,but was unaware! I think I was at school that day, what a shame, the irony. you was surprised, the element of surprise must not be underestimated.
your surprise was 100% which, basically made it cooler.

Re: Nintendo President Satoru Iwata Passes Away Aged 55

@Kirk I didn`t expect this news at all.
I actually cried a little. Upon learning the passing away of the voice actress
of Dexter from Dexter`s Laboratory, I couldn`t help but cry as she was young,
she seemed like a very nice lady. I felt as if a part of my childhood had died.
In case you don`t know her name was Christine Cavanaugh. She voiced one of the female characters in one of the Sonic series, Gossamer (from Darkwing Duck), one of the characters from `AAAHHHH! real monsters`, Chuckie finsterand Bunny from the Powerpuff Girls. I think it is times like these when one has to be most positive and basically remember everything good.

I can`t believe this. It hasn`t even been a few months since we all saw him at the last Nintendo Direct. Satoru Iwata - san thank you for all your work at Nintendo and Hal Laboratory, thank you for being so cool at the Nintendo Directs. Thank you sir for everything and ALL you did at Nintendo.
I felt the pain over 16 hours late. Satoru Iwata rest in peace in the heavens in the afterlife with your family and the angels.
