— NOCHI (@nochi0079) 13 Luglio 2015Masahiro Sakurai, creatore della serie Smash Bros., dice: "Non è un giorno normale e anche io non sto in uno stato mentale normale, ma andrò comunque al lavoro e, come sempre, mi getterò nello sviluppo di videogiochi. Questo è quello che faceva anche Iwata-san. Fare ciò che devi."
ふつうではない日、ふつうではない心境ですが、ふつうに出社し、ふつうに開発に打ち込んでいます。それが岩田さんのためでもありますしね。なすべきことをします。
