R.I.P Hiroshi Yamauchi

I was playing Lylat Wars (The PAL Version of StarFox 64) just now, and when I finished it, I saw "Executive Producer - Hiroshi Yamauchi" and started tearing up as I remembered hearing about his passing on StarFox-Online Forums...

I even teared up again, but it went into crying this time - when I was back on the Main menu with the soft, relaxing music...

I will always remember you, Hiroshi, since you brought us our favourite series such as Zelda, StarFox, and I believe Metroid and F-Zero as well - he was the one that made Nintendo who they are nowadays, without him... we probably wouldn't have these amazing games. I'm sure Miyamoto did Mario, but it may have been the both of them.

He even made my Childhood gaming - I was born the same year as when StarFox 64 was made (1997) and the first game I played on the N64 was Ocarina of Time, along with Donkey Kong, GoldenEye and Perfect Dark.

R.I.P Hiroshi... I will never forget you for making our favourite games, you shall be missed.

In case anyone wants to know my run (Probably not the time, but I apologize) :

• Normal Mode (I don't have Expert Mode)
  
• Nearly died a few times (on Solar, Macbeth, and Venom) I also "missed" a checkpoint on Macbeth, when I was touching it (I was on a slope diagonally, touching the trim).
  
• Path: Corneria > Sector Y > (Went down to normal path) Katina > Solar > Macbeth > Bolse > Venom
• I also destroyed the mothership and Bill followed me to Solar! I kept accidentally friendly firing on Katina as well... the only thing I had to differentiate was that Bill's team had white ships with green on the end of their wings - but the lighting didn't help and his team's shapes weren't consistent. xD
  
• Took out Andross in about 30 seconds, taking only 1 damaging hit from him (which was the metal skull's ear) - I came in, immediately shooting his eyes, destroyed his right hand (nearly instantly) with my button-mashing skills, then got him in the eyes again to take out his left hand, just about dodged his inhale by going to the right and holding R, blew his face up and destroyed his metal skull (after taking the hit).
  
• Extra Arwings x 7, Smart Bombs x 9
  
• 583 hits (around that, about "34724sp$") I'm not sure if that's high or not, but when I did the easy path I got 284. (I've only went through the game twice, too - first on Easy path, and this one is the second run) I'm not actually sure if my path was one of those "High score paths", I was doing this blind.
  
• Falco and Slippy remaining (I lost Peppy during the fight with StarWolf on Bolse)
• And I had the speech on Lylat instead of English (makes everyone talk like on Banjo Kazooie or the original StarFox)... so I couldn't tell what Fox and Pepper were saying on the ending...

I feel like wanting to make something nice for Hiroshi, like a tribute picture to remember him.
