I clicked into this thread fully expecting to see a joke about him running out of extra lives or some such.

bile duct cancer seems like a fuged up way to die. i hope he was able to go as peacefully as possible, with his loved ones around him, and that he was proud of all of the great games that he worked on over his life, and how much joy he brought into the world.

Even stage 1 bile duct cancer only has a 15% five-year survival rate. The only real treatment is surgery and if they can't get it all out, there is no chance of survival.
