Farewell, Satoru Iwata. Sleep well.
10 years ago
General
So for those who don't know, Satoru Iwata, the recent President of Nintendo, has passed away. Now this may spell some things, but to me it's this;
This man was one of the biggest inspirations, and one of the kindest men to grace a video game company. He deserves so much, and I believe there are many people out there who owe him, myself included. As a person who wants to be a game developer, I grew up with the games he helped to create; Kirby, Earthbound, and more. Truly a man of legend, and he'll be remembered for all the years to come. Which is why I'll be dedicating myself to putting all effort into creating my game.
No more sitting around and taking breaks, or working on my game "when I feel like it". After yesterday's news, I learned that life is too short, it is NOT to be taken for granted. Please remember this. Work hard, do what you can to achieve your dreams, even if you burn yourself out for good. Do it for people like Iwata who passed away; Do it for yourself. I personally believe we owe them that much.
Mr. Satoru Iwata, if you can hear the many people who cry for you, we will do our best. We all love you very much, and everything you've brought for us. The work you created, the inspirations. We'll take it and make something out of it. We will make you proud. Good night, Iwata, and as the ending credits of Earthbound say;
"I miss you".
