I knew he was a programmer, but I didn't realize how many games he worked with hands-on. The industry was lucky to have someone like him.

I didn't know the WiiU can scan QR codes. Do I just turn the GamePad's inward-facing camera toward the code while in the Mii Maker?Probably already been posted but I'm currently doing this:
Already seen a few others doing it. Would be cool to see some more.

Here's a link to American Cancer Fund. Fuck cancer indeed.
R.I.P. Mr. Iwata. I thank you for everything you worked on and everything you green-lit. Though your position may be replaced, you as a person will never be replaced. And while I smile at all the games, I hold back tears, knowing that you're gone. Thanks for all the memories and all the fun that I shared with friends and family, huddled around a television and being together.

Oh man, RIP 
This isn't necessarily true. One of my teachers died of the same thing. Sometimes the cancer wraps around one of the pumps/valves and theres not much you can do.
Damn, he looked horrible... Poor guy. One of my friends replied to a post I made on FB about his passing and said that bile duct growths are very treatable. If that's the case, I wonder why he/they didn't do more as far as treatment goes.
Such a great man, gone way too soon.

I didn't know that's a thing, either!

For the new page, donate so we can beat cancer sooner rather than later.
UK - http://www.cancerresearchuk.org/
America -http://www.aacr.org/Pages/Home.aspx
A few dollars a month or a one time donation from many of us can go a long way.
Let's not sit back and accept it taking away the people we love so early.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
I died a lil inside ;.;
Even if this absurd article was real, what makes you think it's ok to post fucking stupid shit like this in this thread?

Pow, right in the ticker.
For America, I'd like to add that the very best thing you can do for science research like cancer is to vote for politicians that support funding like the NSF and NIH. Scientists get the majority of their funding from things like this, not charities. But charity definitely helps! Every bit helps!
I would be so happy if someone set up a cancer donation fund for pancreatic, liver, and bile duct cancers. These are some of the hardest to detect and the most fatal.
Made me smile.

Business Insider calls out PETA: http://www.businessinsider.com/peta...5-7?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed
Sure, PETA, what a tribute those games were:
PETA should stop doing parodies. It gets them in the news, but not in a positive light.

Specifically, this is what Iwata had: http://cholangiocarcinoma.org/
Consider donating for the less well-known types of cancer that are no less deadly or painful.

All these tributes are very touching. I will be racing as Iwata in MK8 for the time being.

So when Kamiya was giving his Wonderful 101 Direct, Iwata told him he should making it jokingly as if he were Iwata hosting a general direct. So Kamiya did exactly that, dressing in a suit, and introducing every aspect of Wonderful 101 as if it were its own game, complete with release date at the end.

The sentiment is quite nice, it was just a bit too overdone with the self-promotion of their parody games. Either way, it's nice to see so many non-gaming outlets and companies so affected by Iwata and his death. It's really a testament to him and the company he ran.
Kirby doing it is what got me. Dammit. I'm gonna step away for a bit and give my tears time to dry.
RIP Iwata.
I've been following this news for the entire day. It truly is a great loss. I think it's beautiful how the entire industry has reacted to this news and it's simply wonderful to see all the touching tributes.
I was actually planning on playing some Nintendo games today in honor of Iwata, but I'm ashamed to say that I don't own any Nintendo hardware currently.

Gonna donate a little bit here as soon as I get the opportunity. Thanks very much for sharing.
That one made me smile.
I've been saving all the tributes on my computer. The community has been doing fantastic things, and I want to remember that man who did so much for Nintendo and for us.
Thank you Iwata for making us dream.
You can't scan QR codes with the Wii U so you do have to transfer it from a 3DS.

That was my thought. I don't like PETA in the slightest, but I understand their schtick and I believe it was heartfelt, if not too self-indulgent.

Not to be out of line, but where do I find the Iwata ribbon so I can put it on my avatar to pay respect?

Thank you Iwata for everything. Nintendo wouldn't have been the same, and won't be the same without you. Rest in peace.

My favorite variation is Sakurai's
I imagine that Iwata loved people poking fun at his Direct gesture.

This is just horrible to think about. No more Directs with Iwata, no more Iwata Asks. Things I really looked forward to whenever they were announced

Fun tidbit, but why bring this up now?So when Kamiya was giving his Wonderful 101 Direct, Iwata told him he should making it jokingly as if he were Iwata hosting a general direct.
