[Video] Remembering Satoru Iwata 10 Years On (A Game & Chat Special)

Hi all. I know we are a bit late on the take with remembering the 10-year anniversary of Satoru Iwata’s passing. We did have something in the works but had to adjust the timing of it to better suit our busy schedules. With that said, we have recorded a new episode for our Game & Chat podcast that is dedicated to the incredible person who was Satoru Iwata.

For those of you who don’t know who he was or would like a refresher, Iwata-San was the president of Nintendo from the DS era, up until the Wii U and his unfortunate passing on July 11, 2015. He did some truly incredible things during his time at Nintendo and before, when he was president at HAL Laboratory.

In our latest episode of Game & Chat, I (Mike) am joined by Pete Beckett of Rapid Reviews UK and Rich Stokes of We Love Game Music to reminisce and read some passages from the Ask Iwata book to shine some light into the kind of person Satoru Iwata was.

You can find the episode in the embedded video below or alternatively on our YouTube channel and Spotify. Special thanks to Pete and Rich for joining me on this episode.
