Satoru Shibata, president of Nintendo of Europe, published a lengthy message on the company’s website today with the arrival of the holidays. Read it in full below.

Hello everyone!

This is Satoru Shibata from Nintendo of Europe.

I would like to thank you all for your tremendous support of Nintendo in 2015.

With Mr Iwata passing away in July, this year has proven to be a real challenge for us, as well as for me personally. It saddened me not only as president of Nintendo of Europe, but as a fellow Nintendo Direct presenter. Looking back at the overwhelming number of tributes you all have paid, it again brought home to me just how much he was loved.
