Nintendo visionary Hiroshi Yamauchi dies aged 85

We owe the video game resurgence to that man.

If you are a gamer, you should celebrate the life he had while you mourn what the world has lost.

RIP :c

Read it. RIP :(
"You cannot overestimate the influence the man had on the games industry."
DAMN RIGHT.

:C

RIP Yamauchi-san. The gaming world wouldn't have been the same without you, quite literally.

I will never get to know you personally, but you'll be an inspiration for generations to come (including me).

:{ R.I.P Loved playing the NES and remember "returning" some products to be able to buy a SNES and play Uncharted Waters New Horizons all day!!

RIP Thanks for video games dude. Had it not been for him, it is likely that vid games would have died and the best game we have would be some form of poker game.

Bumping because this thread doesn't deserve to die.

This actually hit me harder then I thought it would, surprising how people you don't even really know in person can affect so many things you do.

ご冥福を祈ります。
