    Hi, today we're taking a look at a new book from the good folks over at Nintendo Force - The Impact of Iwata. We're sort of burying the lead here but our very own Kit contributed to the book with and wrote a section about working on Nintendo Direct with Mr. Iwata. The book is a really great collection and comprehensive history of Mr. Iwata's life. Let us know your favorite Mr. Iwata moment in the comments below.

    I still think of the incredible team Iwata, Miyamoto, and Reggie made. That was something truly special.

    “On my business card, I am a corporate president. In my mind, I am a game developer. But in my heart, I am a gamer.”
    Still very deeply missed, and my favourite quote by Mr. Satoru Iwata, as it showed that he was one of us, not just someone who was only concerned by profits, but as a gamer, knew that “Above all, video games are meant to just be one thing: Fun for everyone.”

    I am so grateful you two have spotlighted this book. NintendoForce doesnt get enough credit for being such an amzing, special thing in this time of physical media decay. The book and magazines are of such superb quality and writing.

    Man, I really miss him, despite never crossing paths with him, his impact will never be forgotten. His passion for everything he did really shines through even to this day ☺️
    I got really teary eyed at the end of the video and it just reminds that even when people are gone, it’s never “the end” 🥹
    Thank you Satoru Iwata 🙏

    I’ll never forget the announcement of his passing. Was coming home from comic con and I opened twitter to the news of his death. Made the trip more meaningful cause I went to comic con for the Nintendo lounge in particular. No amount of words can express how appreciative I am for him and his contributions to gaming

    For Mr. Iwata. Glad I read Reggie's book "Disrupting The Game" and appreciate the recommendations to see other things Mr. Iwata is in, ranging from books to pamphlets and many more. Thanks Kit and Krysta! I bet his spirit is somewhere up in the Kit and Krysta studio.

    This man was a great inspiration, i specifically remember his English voice, i remember this specific line about Majora's mask 3D i think. He would say in a super cute way: *Majora's mask can be quite scary*. It went something like that. But its been a long time since ive seen it. Maybe one of you you two remember! his *directly to you* line in directs still hits hard for me.
    It still feels like some of that magic is missing sometimes. But this might also just be the company looking forward rather than backwards.
    Unfortunately i live in Europe, so i would've loved to purchase one, but I'll have to wait a bit longer for that. In the meantime, great review! The book looks amazing, as well as all the artworks! Many props to all the writers and artists!

    I still remember coming home from school, one of the few last directs had Iwata featured not long before his passing on my 3ds handheld. it actually made my tear up. Once I saw this Kickstarter getting recommended to me i knew i had to back it last year and glad I did. Growing up on Nintendo consoels/handhelds most of my life i just had to as well. I still haven't had time to read through it yet. But loved watching you twos review on the book. I also have a copy of the other iwata book as well which i loved.

    I love this book & Iwata-san! I’m a Nintendo Force subscriber, and I got this on Kickstarter with all these goodies! Lucas and his family are in my city in Kentucky! I wasn’t home, but his wife delivered my copy, and my mom talked with her a bit and she seemed very nice! I’d love to meet them one day!
