Satoru Iwata

The Nintendo world was impacted immensely by my hero, Satoru Iwata. He created games like Pokemon, and one of my most enjoyed games possible, Super Smash Bros. His progress that he made in the video-gaming world has inspired me a lot and, though he has left our world, his work on Nintendo will be seen and will never be forgotten.  He died of bile duct cancer on July 11, 2015, but he has inspired my dream of following his footsteps of impacting the Nintendo world. The games he made are still immensely enjoyed internationally and nationally in the US, like the Kirby series and, with more games he co-created or made himself, he will be remembered for the amazing sales from his creativity and genius.
