A legend in the Wii scene. Sounds like he was so much more than that to those around him. Rest in Peace.

Most people leave from this earth without leaving behind a legacy, rest well old friend, for your legacy has brought us where we are today.

Luglige · Feb 18, 2016

We loved you Bush. I give a big virtual hug to his family. I aways believe there is something greater after death and I hope he's going to it.

omg that was 1 day before my bd, to me it's always sucks/hurts/saddening & also a bit shocking to hear/read (especially when their age isn't that much further apart from yours too) a talented person died so young.

R.I.P, I also hope the ppl that were close to /cared about him will also be able to recover from this loss!

Touko White · Feb 21, 2016

It's always shocking to hear people die so young and he contributed so much to the progress of the homebrew scene. There will always be a legacy left behind no matter if anyone progress further than him because if he'd never contributed anything those people wouldn't be able to surpass...

I'm sorry if this post seems a bit cold-hearted.

That's kind of strange that he died so young of a heart attack. And so sad. RIP

Fatih120 · Mar 3, 2016

Wanting to bump.

Didn't know about him at all, but thanks (sadly) to the announcements, I realized how important he was. It also struck me because a few days ago my grandma had a heart attack [but she's okay now].

Rest happily, buddy.

I've been away from wii related stuff for five years or so. Really saddened by this late news to me. I remember him as a kind person that tied his team together. May he rest in peace.

jamespoo · Jun 24, 2017

r.i.p thanks for everything you have done

g4jek8j54 · Aug 31, 2017

I have been away from things related to Wii hacking for a long time, and have only now come across this news. It makes me very sad to read this. I also remember him as a very kind person, both from my conversations with him, and conversations he had with others. My (late) condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace.
