It can be so easy to take life for granted. While most of us are waiting on pins and needles for the December release of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, one fan received terrible news: Chris Taylor, aka SpookyWoobler on Twitter, was diagnosed with terminal cancer after successfully beating it three times in the past. He was told that he has only a few more months to live.
Following this, Chris tweeted out that he was worried that he might not get to experience Smash Bros. Ultimate, given when the game is set to release:
Im really scared i won’t be able to play ultimate

Chris amassed major support online and eventually caught the attention of Nintendo, who arranged for Chris to try the game in his home with family and friends.
