Gumpei Yokoi 

Creator of the famed Game Boy and the not so highly thought of Virtual Boy. After the humiliation of the VB, he left Nintendo and worked with Bandai to create the Wonderswan. Sadly, he soon later died in 1997 from a car accident. He ended off poorly, but still left his mark on Nintendo and the world.

Yoko by Alexandre Soares April 6, 2005
Avante garde conceptual artist who added a political, earth-loving edge to the music of a Beatle she married, giving up her personal fame, until his assasination, when she grieved with all of us through music, and eventually re-emerged into art "in her own write", and as his loving, loyal archivist. One who does not compromise her integrity, who loves eternally, who is a sister always.
