Nintendo Co., Ltd. deeply regrets to announce that President Satoru Iwata passed away on July 11, 2015 due to a bile duct growth.

:cry:

When I die, all I ask is that they don't report the cause... unless it's something awesome like a bear or an asteroid.

A fuck who gives?

Maybe they'll start making good games again.

Did anybody else see the story that was recently out about a guy discovering a Nintendo Playstation in his basement. His dad worked at nintendo and had died but worked with a guy he knew the name of. It was his nickname though and ended up being someone like the vp, or ceo, rtc.

Nintendo had made a deal with the company that I guess Sony makes a deal with and they produced the Nintendo Playstation but the same company made a bigger deal with Sony afterwards and it pissed Nintendo off so they just scrapped it all. I'll see if I can find it again on the chive or probably on google

Unconfirmed prototype

:up

:thankyou

this guy has had a huge impact on video games, its sad to see him go so early

Not really. He wasn't the founder, and didn't join the company until 2000.

Exactly! Pretty much when they started going fucknuts

Only one way he could have died with honor: seppuku. :sadyes

2000-2015 was amazing for nintendo

Did you know that the wii outsold the xb360 and the ps3?

And the handhelds demolished the sony competition?

Did you play any of the games? Have you played the Nintendo wii? Have you played the new Zelda, Mario, Mario party, or any of those games from the last5-10 years

XB and PS had to compete with each other. Wii made video games for toddlers.

I played twilight princess and the new mario on wii

I also currently own a ds and play final fantasy games and zelda on it

i also played most of the new metroid games

:timeout
While kids are a huge part of their demographic

They had several adult games, like red steel, Resident evil and so on

Don't know about the DS, I would assume the DS is better as they have always been great at the handheld device and beat every other platform.


But its be my motto that when games become more work than play then they aren't games anymore.

I don't know what the fuck that is, but it sounds right up your alley.

you are gayer than aids

:dog

Nintendo has always shit on Microsuck and Hackedstation EOT.

the second to last zelda game that came out, i was answering the smartass JD who assumes i dont play nintendo games
