Man this is that name that I always knew was going come up at the end of those great Nintendo games that I always struggled to pronounce as a young child and made me feel that final sense of accomplishment as it was followed by "The End". I guess this is sort of the end of an era in a way.

R.I.P. Mr. Yamauchi. Even if the impact on me wasn't quite as significant as others, I was still a part of this phenomenon he created.

Thanks for changing the world forever Mr. Yamauchi, and thanks for making the childhood memories of millions if not billions of children around the world totally awesome thanks to Nintendo. Thanks to you Nintendo became a house hold name, and for most of us the first video game consoles we ever played. May you rest in peace.

How do you memorialize a guy who created a legendary brand, but was also, like... kinda evil?
