Did they bury him with a 3DS so I can streetpass him from beyond the grave?

Just read about NeoGaf's admin having a meltdown about people wanting a Iwata banner for a day or whatever. What a douche

Sleeveless posted:They burned through the mythical "war chest" that they built up over the Wii's lifetime in like two years and the only thing keeping the company afloat is whoring out their IPs to third parties, branching out into cell phone games, and selling toys that double as on-disc DLC while reassuring everybody that their new console is just around the corner and will totally turn things around. Just because they managed to pull out of their tailspin at the last minute doesn't change the fact that they were heading for bankruptcy. Google their financial reports. Their war chest is still $10 billion and has barely dipped below that in years. It would take something like 50 more years of their recent losses to come close to bankruptcy.

quote:I did in fact ask my art team to create an Iwata memorial logo immediately upon hearing the tragic news, since the idea resonated with me and we were all deeply saddened by his passing. An appropriate memorial logo was created shortly thereafter. It's sweet like candy edit: The actual thread is a bit more obvious that the other posters are lovely too. poo poo all around!

He also stole and leaked nude images of another guy's ex-girlfriend He's a nutjob that doesn't even post on his own forums anymore because they're so involved in the fight of social issues like feminism and transgender acceptance, despite his own troubling views on those issues.
