God, I'm legitimately angry at twitch chat right now. So many assholes.

That's why I disabled it.

 

[Floridian]

Hard to believe it's been 6 months since Iwata died.

Woah time traveled quickly.

 

[PhaZZe]

perfect

 

[melkier33]

This is really out place, they should have closed the show with this.

Edit: unless this is the end, wasn't Keeling track.

 

[def sim]

This is nice. A heartfelt gesture.

 

[Kaneda Shotaro]

What's the name of the song Ben Harper is playing right now? It's beautiful.

 

[Karl_Dilkington7]

The sales figures was weird. However, he finished strong. Nice move Geoff on the tribute.

 

[Scientist Supreme!]

This is a terrible fucking speech. I'm not unique? Fuck you Reggie. Jesus.

You really are a child.

 

[Salsa]

Lol, dude, he's been around for o, about 25 years or so.

unrelated but to be fair Pharrell has been around for about that much lol

 

[Josh5890]

Greatest Iwata moment on stage was when he pulled that Wii out of his jacket. Like a boss

 

[Xamtheking]

That's why I disabled it.

How did you do that?

 

[Morfeo]

and I thought the actual awards were boring ... haha

Show some respect dude.

 

[Nesther]

Some Kirby music would be fitting.

 

[Gamer79]

RIP Iwata but this guy sucks

 

[DedValve]

Was hoping theyd play some zelda or pokemon music.

Reggie holding back those tears nearly got me.

 

[Mark5130]

This event has come a looooong way since its inception. Nice job, Geoff!

 

[JimJamJones]

 

[Hydrus]

This thread is turning into a twitch chat. Jeez...

 

[Majine]

Good and important bit to remind ourselves that gaming lost one of the biggest ever this year.

 

[SDBurton]

Holy shit that hit dead center. Incredible speech Reggie.

 

[Primethius]

[Ithil]

There's some shockingly fragile egos around.

 

[Flunkie]

and I thought the actual awards were boring ... haha

bye

 

[KiLLz4TwinKies]

Class personified on all fronts; Geoff, Awards, Reggie, and the crowd

 

[TheDangerMan]

 

[kitchenmotors]

This is a terrible fucking speech. I'm not unique? Fuck you Reggie. Jesus.

You can't be serious with this post?

Jesus, some of you people.

 

[Emedan]

That is really cold and uncalled for tbh.

Get over yourself.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

Why is there hand waving in a piano song. Have these people ever seen anyone perform live before

 

[Bornstellar]

Waving your hands is a bit much

.

 

[demosthenes]

The toxic comments about Reggie's words, and "what the fuck is this shitty music". You people, my god.

 

[Hexa]

I know this is a fast moving thread but I hope mods go back through it. Some of these posts are absolutely disgusting.

RIP Iwata

 

[Tinfoilhatsron]

This is a terrible fucking speech. I'm not unique? Fuck you Reggie. Jesus.

Now Ain't the time for that shit.

 

[Stinkles]

I'm not feeling anything.

Then don't say anything?

 

[Delio]

That speach was fantastic...

And what with the sales numbers that have you all shocked? He was listing some of his accomplishments.

Seriously I had no problem with that. Yikes at some people in this thread getting bent out of shape over it.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Lovely song!

 

[elitewillie1]

Lord let's move this shit along. We all have to die at some point. It's part of life. Jesus.

 

[kcurlsjr]

Think he'll play "Burn One Down" next?

 

[Violence Jack]

Never thought I would need Kleenex for a gaming awards show.

Geoff's outdone himself here. This is a great tribute.

 

[EloquentM]

Man I remember that day. It was completely insane and unexpected

 

[Justinh]

So, um... that was pretty great.

 

[CloakedPuppet]

Classless gamers remain classless

Great tribute to a great industry icon

Too true. On both accounts.

 

[Teknoman]

Yeah all they needed was the speech.

 

[a secret-boss]

Can't you guys just enjoy the moment stop criticizing every moment

 

[Mory Dunz]

I think a Nintendo song would be cool too. Maybe Kirby for a little bit.

 

[Bear Force One]

Good time to make a sammich.

 

[Tenebrous]

That dude on the piano was alright.

 

[StriKeVillain]

That was beautiful. Good selection.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

That is really cold and uncalled for tbh.

Why? It's the truth. So many people here seem upset that Reggie said "Iwata was unique" interpreting as "Reggie just said I'm not unique". Sorry to break it to you guys, but most people here (including me) aren't that special. It's just how it is.

 

[Krappadizzle]

unrelated but to be fair Pharrell has been around for about that much lol

Ben Harper released his first album in 92. Pharrell helped produce music in 92.

 

[Kerned]

This is really out place, they should have closed the show with this.

No way man, you can't end an awards show on a sad note. The middle is exactly where this should be.
