On July 12, Nintendo announced that their president, Satoru Iwata, had passed away. Over the course of his career he developed many great games, led two prominent game companies, and inspired millions. As the public face of Nintendo, he delighted fans with his Iwata Asks segments, Nintendo Directs, and other appearances. We take this episode to remember him and how he affected our lives, personally.

Using only pens, paper, dice, and imagination, you can embark on the most fantastic of quests. It's a story that YOU build, with combat, diplomacy, adventuring, and skillful challenges. Wizards of the Coast recently began unleashing the 5th edition of D&D on the world, and so now is the perfect time to jump in.

We know that Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Mario Kart 8, Captain Toad, and many more titles will take advantage of the figures, and 3DS support will not be far behind. How else might Nintendo exploit the potential of this new product? We offer our thoughts on Pokemon, inter-game functionality, and more.
