Mr. Iwata Tribute

Project Description

This project was not exactly for a class or anything quite like that. I created this design as a tribute to Satoru Iwata. He was the President and CEO of Nintendo and passed away at the age of 55. Both me and him share the same birth day, Decemember 6th. Nintendo had a lot of influence on me when I was growing up. I played a lot of Super Mario Bros. and Legend of Zelda games in my childhood and I play a variety of other Nintendo games even still now. Nintendo's games were different from the competition. Sony more so focused on enhancing graphics. Nintendo focused more on enhancing ideas and creating something inovative and different. They may not have been the best in the graphics department, but many of their games have done a wonderful job at introducing different types of gameplay mechanics and being memorable for many, many years to come. I've owned every console from the NES to the Wii U and I have never regreted a single purchase. I wanted to be able to create something innovative and different as well, just like how Nintendo does. It may be a bit more risky and difficult, but it will be worth it and amazing in the end. Nintendo taught me the powerful lesson that fun has no age limit.
