Mr. Satoru Iwata has passed away

[Helmo]

Not only was he a brilliant programmer, but remember when Iwata took a 50% pay cut due to poor Wii U sales?

"I sincerely doubt employees who fear that they may be laid off will be able to develop software titles that could impress people around the world."

"I know that some employers publicize their restructuring plan to improve their financial performance by letting a number of their employees go, but at Nintendo, employees make valuable contributions in their respective fields, so I believe that laying off a group of employees will not help to strengthen Nintendo's business in the long run."



What a boss... literally.
