Er war 55 Jahre alt. Iwata hatte anhaltende gesundheitliche Probleme und nahm 2014 eine Auszeit, um sich einen Tumor aus seinem Gallengang entfernen zu lassen. Iwata wurde 2002 zum CEO ernannt und folgte damit Hiroshi Yamauchi, der seit 1949 Pr\u00e4sident war.<\/p>\n<p>Iwata presided over over some of the biggest product launches in the company\u2019s 126 year history. He had a large part in bringing both the Wii and DS to market which saw near immeasurable success and kept Nintendo a major player in the console space after several difficult years. He was the very public face of the company, being involved in many Nintendo Direct online events. Most recently he appeared in puppet form for Nintendo\u2019s E3 Digital Event.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/aptgadget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/iwata.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"342\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3108\" src=\"http:\/\/aptgadget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/iwata.jpg\" alt=\"iwata\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aptgadget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/iwata.jpg 630w, https:\/\/aptgadget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/iwata-300x163.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aptgadget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/iwata-1024x556.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aptgadget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/iwata-765x415.jpg 765w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Bevor er direkt f\u00fcr Nintendo arbeitete, war Iwata f\u00fcr die HAL Laboratories t\u00e4tig, wo er an vielen ber\u00fchmten Spielen beteiligt war, darunter <em>Luftballon-Kampf<\/em>und die <em>Kirby<\/em> und <em>Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> Serie.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say this a shock to Nintendo fans, and all gamers. While Nintendo did nothing to hide Iwata\u2019s health issues he had been back at work for some time and appeared to be healthy again. Iwata did not attend E3 this year, but that was only because there were no major hardware announcements planned.<\/p>\n<p>Ein Nachfolger wurde nicht benannt, aber Nintendo hat zwei weitere stellvertretende Direktoren, Genyo Takeda und Shigeru Miyamoto, die diese Positionen weiterhin bekleiden werden. Es ist sehr wahrscheinlich, dass einer von ihnen die Nachfolge antreten wird. Als weiteres \u00f6ffentliches Gesicht des Unternehmens ist Miyamoto eine naheliegende Wahl.<\/p>\n<p>Whoever the next CEO of Nintendo is, they will have a lot of work ahead of them. We know Nintendo has another console being designed, code named the NX, which may be launching as early as next year. Following the disappointment of the WiiU\u2019s launch Nintendo does have some ground to get back in the console space. Still, the contributions of Iwata cannot be understated, whoever takes over will also have big shoes to fill.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today Nintendo announced that company CEO Satoru Iwata died on Saturday of a bile duct growth.
