Description
"Above all, videogames are meant to be just one thing: fun. Fun for everyone."
- Satoru Iwata
This one is in memory of Nintendo's late CEO and President Satoru Iwata who passed away a few days ago. I wanted to paint something featuring Nintendo characters he was most involved with, like Kirby and Pokemon, and also Luigi because of his Year of Luigi Nintendo Direct videos.
One thing that stood out to me while Iwata was President of Nintendo is his visible enjoyment with his job. His public appearances were always joyous and had showmanship and plenty of clowning around with Reggie and Miyamoto. It was always about fun, and I wanted to depict that in the painting with the characters just playing games and having fun.
Takes place in what I think Luigi's house could look like. Little references to him and the Mario universe here and there. I want that fire flower lamp.
Strayed from my comic style a bit here as I felt it would have been off on this more light-hearted scene. I wanted the bright colors to stand out and my usual bold black outlines would have ruined it, I think.

Thank you, Iwata.

Ahh Mattu this is such a nice tribute! The colors are very vibrant. Love all of the little details that you put into it, too. Also, that mushroom couch needs to be a thing.
