RIP, Hiroshi Yamauchi (Mr. Nintendo)

A great visonary that brought Nintendo from a simple playing card manufacturer into a video game conglomerate (although currently that is not the case) has passed away today.

RIP, Mr. Nintendo.

Thanks to him and his vision for making them into a gaming company I had the pleasure of growing up with some of the best gaming moments in my life, from Mario world to Lylat wars to killer instinct 1 and many others
