Robin Williams passing and under such a circumstances was a great tragedy. The actor, comedian was loved all over the world by many different people and generations, he will surly be missed.
If you didn't know, Robin Williams was a Nintendo fan and especially a fan of the Legend of Zelda series. He even named his daughter Zelda after the game. Both of them did a commercial for Nintendo some years ago. The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time is one of the best games ever on any console.
After Robin Williams passing, fans started a petition where they want Nintendo to make a non-playable character named Robin, that will be included in the next Zelda game. Fan petition become viral very soon and a lot of fans singed it already so Nintendo decided to address the fans.
Nintendo spokesperson said: “Robin Williams was loved at Nintendo,Our hearts go out to his entire family, and especially to Zelda Williams who we've worked with multiple times. We appreciate the outpouring of support from the gaming community, and hear the request of fans to honor him in a future game. We will not be discussing what might be possible for future games during this difficult time, but we will hold our memories of Robin close.”
So they are not saying anything conclusive just yet, we certainly hope there will be a character named Robin in their new Zelda game, the fans would definitely love it.
Petition was started by Nick Shaedel and this is what he had to say about that: “Robin was an avid player of video games, with a love for all things Nintendo, and a particular love of all things Legend of Zelda, It is well-known that he named his daughter after the series' titular princess. Nintendo of America itself only recently hired him and his daughter to promote the franchise in a series of ads.”
