The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom pay tribute to Iwata

Then we remembered that he was no longer here,” said director Hidemaro Fujibayashi, after the premiere of the first installment (via The New Yorker). “Miyamoto told me that the same thing happened to him. (…) The sadness is deep. This becomes spiritual, but we had the feeling that he was watching our work. That became a source of motivation, an impulse to do better and to be better”.
