[Hitman_Leon]

This man would be one of the main drives behind the way we play games today, his influence can be said to have affected the whole gaming industry. Follow-on effects from his work filtering into every sphere of gaming technology.

Hiroshi Yamauchi, rest in peace.

Same here, its a sad day when a visionary like this dies, but im sure his legacy will live on forever.
I just hope now Nintendo pull their fingers out and get serious again, before all the hard work this guy has done is undone.
