Prior to the Seattle Mariners’ baseball game against the Kansas City Royals yesterday, a moment of silence was held for former Nintendo president Hiroshi Yamauchi. Yamauchi passed away last week due to complications stemming from pneumonia.
Yamauchi became majority owner of the Marines in 1992. Nintendo of America took over in 2004, though he still maintained a strong influence over the team.
One fun fact for you: despite his ownership of the Mariners, Yamauchi never actually attended any of the club’s baseball games.

Not much has changed since then, as Oliver & Spike’s fate on Wii U hasn’t been determined. However, according to Rock Pocket’s Natascha Röösli, the game is now being pitched to the likes of Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft as a second-party title.
Röösli told Dromble:
