However, even for other people, Mr. Iwata’s presence was too great to simply call him a character in the story of life.

Can I cry again? Thank you for everything.
Day two: It’s sinking in. The more I think about it, the more I see posts, it really is beginning to hit me. But you know, this is my tribute to him. I have my way of words and here’s what I want to say:
I’m going to push forward. I said this to a friend.
I’m going to push forward. He would want that, right?
He’d want us all to smile and play the games that he invested his love and time into and go forth. He doesn’t want us to see us sad.
Yes, the stinging and hurt will be there but he brought so much to us, not to mention he was such a prestigious programmer and the fact he saved so many games. We may have lost such an iconic figure in the industry who not only impacted Nintendo but other companies too but he will always be around. He will be
Give a smile and celebrate his life and career. He did what he loved the most and cared for the fans and his colleagues and friends and family a lot.
Don’t be sad.
Just smile
It would make him happy
Mad love to the Splatoon community for all the posts tho

I saw the translation for Sakurai’s Tweet to Iwata.
The fact that he’s still throwing himself into development as normal.
Damn Sakurai… I don’t know how you do it… This is why I look up to you…
You were very close to him. I know you were :(. From the first tweet you sent out... I could see. He meant so much to you.
Yes. Do this for Iwata. He will always be proud of you :).
You know what? My mother said that we should always celebrate someone’s life. Yes, the sadness will be there but… We have so much to celebrate.
And that’s what we should do for Iwata. We should celebrate all his great achievements for Nintendo and his career :)
