        FYI this happened to Satoru Iwata, former CEO and President of Nintendo, so this reads as a really insensitive joke.

        This article is brilliantly written. Am I missing something that's in poor taste or is everyone trolling?

        One of Kirby's creators died of a form of stomach cancer. He was also Nintendo's president: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satoru_Iwata …

        Hey @TheOnion, I don't even wanna RT but this is in incredibly poor taste considering the death of Nintendo President Satoru Iwata. Not cute https://twitter.com/TheOnion/status/885178247566295045 …

        Stomach cancer is hilarious. I always thought you guys missed out on some laughs by not using it as a punchline.
