Hiroshi Yamauchi: Richest Man in Japan



Forbes is reporting that Hiroshi Yamauchi, retired chairman of Nintendo, is now Japan's richest businessperson. The 80 year old legend of the industry is now worth $7.8 billion. I'm curious to know who's inheriting his stock once he dies.

Some choice responses from NeoGAF on the news:
"Ah, the Dreadlord Yamauchi himself..." - KyanMehwulfe
"Pimp hand is strong." - Rorschach
"I don't know if Yamauchi can die at this point... he can probably buy off the Grim Reaper." - DavidDayton
"He is the Grim Reaper" - HK-47
