I know that troll Twitter account was a parody one, but deep down I still believe it's him. Gonna miss all that.

Ya. The parody twitter account was great.

It's kind of funny but I'm legitimately sad about this. I'm finding as I'm getting older that I'm becoming more resistant to change. I'm at an age now where I'm starting to understand why I thought old people were so inflexible and cranky when I was young. They were simply reacting negatively to change, because it signifies the passing of time and getting older.

If I were 25 I really wouldn't have even cared about this information. But at 45, and with Reggie also going this year, I'm just sad about the changing of the guard. And of course the changing of the gaming industry as a whole.

Duno about Reggie. Not a fan personally. Definitely Iwata for me though.

I never liked the way Reggie talks, he has this arrogant look every time he speaks and pauses. And I certainly didn't like it when he said they'll talk about next gen when the Wii hit 75mil? He just feels like a PR dude rather than being passionate about games. Miyamoto is my man though.

If you are going to go out, you might as well go out while on top.

It's similar to nobody remembers you showing up to the party, but they all remember you leaving.

Him and Jack Tretton where the best faces of Sony, you could literally feel their passion to what they do.

Yeah I changed my pronouns and my own username offended me. So I transitioned from Virex to Solaris.
