Pac-Man's creator has passed away at the age of 91


Good grief, what a way to start a monday.

To think he died when Bandai Namco is about to have, what will likely be, a great year to what with Tales of Berseria, Digimon, Tekken 7 and Ni No Kuni II to name a few. 

This is one of the more difficult deaths to deal with, but at least he lived that long, most famous people or important figures to their craft, have died a lot younger than this, so at least he leaves behind a long life and an excellent legacy to be proud of. Still hard to deal with though.

I'm pretty certain that the gaming community is already paying their respects to his passing. Funny thing is, I was wearing a Pac-Man themed shirt today.

I'm not sure if that really sucks, or it's appropriate. Either way that timing is just against the odds and highly interesting.
