I hope they do a tribute to Iwata, maybe they are saving that for The Game Awards
These Directs are basically advertisements.

Using someone's death to incite sympathy for a company and their products would be tasteless and cynical.

Iwata was a major part of the Directs and well beloved by most who watched them.  Nothing wrong with giving a tribute to him since this will be the first Direct since his death. 


Tasteless and cynical would be if after the tribute they announce they're now selling Iwata Amiibos that'll unlock exclusive content in Twilight Princess HD and Star Fox Zero.

How come there's never a link to the direct in the articles?
TVman is dead. I killed him and took his posts.

Nice to see Cesaro getting a job at a place that respects him.

There's about 20,000 things going at once in the runup to the Direct, and it sort of slipped the mind. We do have all the relevant videos on NWR TV.
