Hiroshi Yamauchi was Nintendos 3rd President and took the company from making playing cards to creating all of Nintendo's consoles, up to the Gamecube. He was President for 53 years and was Japans richest man. 

 

I felt like this was something people should read.

This is saddening, but reminds me of only one thing.

 

 

We are approaching a new generation and the old generations are now dying off. It's sad but true. 

Mr. Yamauchi, you gave us the wonderful opportunity to have such an amazing memory during your time in charge, you will be missed...
