Description
Yesterday was a very tragic day for Nintendo fans. Satoru Iwata, the fourth president of Nintendo of Japan and host of the Nintendo Directs prior to now, has passed away from a tumor. And so, the time has come to mourn the loss of Mr. Iwata. (You may not see it, but Meta Knight is actually shedding a tear beneath his mask.)Original Sprites by Nintendo, AlphaDream, HAL Laboratory, Creatures, Game Freak, APE Inc., Marios-Friend9, KingAsylus91, NeoZ7, Oldskoolmario, Aquamimi123, and jmkrebs30.

Actually, even though it doesn't look like it, he does care. After all, OmegaMario89 made a tribute, and Bowser Jr. cried just like he did in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour.

Unfortunately, it's true. If you don't believe me, Nintendo released a short single-page document that can be accessed via Adobe Reader.

And Mario, Kirby, Pikachu, and the others aren't the only Nintendo characters mourning his loss... Other characters like Samus Aran, Lucina, Pit, Olimar, Little Mac, and even Captain Rainbow and Barbara the Bat are remembering Mr. Iwata...

He's now with Mr. Yokoi and Mr. Yamauchi...

You mean Inside Out, The Good Dinosaur, or Zootopia?

Inside Out because the Good Dinosaur and Zootopia are not out yet.

This reminds me that in the spirit of Mr. Iwata's passing, during the Thank You message at the very end of the game, after the message fades out, another message should appear with Tiff and Rocky standing next to each other with sad looks on their faces. The message should read this: "In Loving Memory of Satoru Iwata: 1959-2015". Lastly, the scene will take place in the Mushroom Kingdom Cemetery where three headstones (From Left-to-Right order: One shaped like a Game Boy, one shaped like a Power Star, and one shaped like an NES controller) are located, and a bouquet of assorted flowers (like Fire Flowers, Ice Flowers, Cloud Flowers, Boomerang Flowers, and common real-life flowers) is placed in front of the center headstone.

And judging by the picture, Tiff and Rocky are about to leave the Mushroom Kingdom Cemetery, hence the headstones being placed north of them.
