The first five videos in this series will show us painting different segments of the cover, and the 6th and final video will be a long video featuring each segment with artist commentary. Each segment of the cover art represents a different Nintendo game or franchise which Mr. Iwata impacted in a critical way. First up is the Pokémon series! Without Mr. Iwata's programming wizardry and business savvy, the Pokémon series would not have enjoyed the success it did in its earliest days – nor would it have been set up to succeed in the long-term, for nearly 20 years now. His code-writing skill allowed the development team of Pokémon Gold & Silver to double the size of the explorable game world, letting players revisit the entire Kanto region after the journey in Johto came to an end. He translated the battle system of the series from the Game Boy to the N64 in just one week, making the creation of the Pokémon Stadium series possible. And he helped set up The Pokémon Company itself – the company that's still guiding the direction of the brand and its hundreds of popular characters to this day. If you're a Pokémon fan, you've just got to say, "Thank You, Mr. Iwata!"
