Iwata meant allot to me because him and his ideas resparked my gaming fire back in the early 2000s, I had to read up on what he died from, its just something I do.
This was full blown cancer not just a simple growth, must've been late stage 3 when he found out and got the surgery for it. he must've had a good remission but relapsed into stage 4 recurrent earlier this year.
He walked around with stage 4 bile duct cancer and never made a big deal out of it, never wanted to freak anyone out or scare his fans or the company itself if they didn't already know how severe it was but i'm sure some higher up parts knew and already planned for this. but here he was all this year fighting until the cancer took him, promoting Nintendo and its products and having a good time. Thats how much he cared about his company and most of all, cared about us.
This guy, we lost somebody who was a real gift on this world. this is sad, this is sick, this is wrong. he was taken far too soon.
Rest well Iwata, you've earned it.
