Play Pokemon gen 2 (Gold/Silver)
It was basically due to his programming skills that Kanto was put into the game along with Johto.
Wait, really? I never knew that. The fact that gold/silver has both regions makes it my favorite Pokémon game, and one of my favorite games ever made. And that was all thanks to him? Damn.

When you look at this and realize .... programmer to CEO? That's an absolutely meteoric rise.
I love that Nintendo had a programmer CEO and I don't think I appreciated it until now.
Again, Mr. Iwata was the canvas maker AND the painter.When you look at this and realize .... programmer to CEO? That's an absolutely meteoric rise.

This is the best way to revisit Iwata's legacy: just play games and have fun.

I didn't even know HAL made MSX games.
I might not have the OG Gold and Silver but I will play HeartGold in his honor tonight with some Wii U games.
Had no idea iwata was responsible for this(these are my favorite games ever). Iwata will forever be the goatlAlso admire how impressive Pokemon Gold and Silver's size is for the time and technology, because that was awesome. What a badass thing he pulled off getting all that on a small cart.
Get the Balloon Fight theme.
Several weeks ago, as my final Club Nintendo reward, I got Earthbound for free. I was thinking about getting something else, but I just wanted Earthbound on my Wii U. Time to revisit that game.
I have had it on my WiiU since releasr and only started playing it yesterday. After he died but before I knew. Feels like my subconscious knew there was a reason I should be playing the game at that point, I realise how weird that sounds.I have Earthbound on Wii U VC but never played it. Tonight's as good a time as any to start.
Arcana and Alcahest (with translation patch) - damn good games with excellent music.
Oh wow, never heard of Alcahest that looks sweet.Arcana and Alcahest (with translation patch) - damn good games with excellent music.
go onI plan on playing a lot of HAL Laboratory games, mainly their Japanese PC line-up that Iwata had some part in developing.
Sweet flopping fucks! What is this?! This is perfect.Alcahest (with translation patch)
Dear lord, it's 6 in the morning and I'm still half snapped on shine and the untimely news of Iwatas death, but I never knew he had a hand in Lolo! This guy had his fingers into just about everything Nintendo from my early years as a gamer. I'm gonna give Earthbound a serious look and revisit Kirby...Balloon Fight. Adventures of Lolo. Kirby Superstar.
