>REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--After more than 15 notable years at Nintendo of America, and nearly 13 as its President and COO, Reggie Fils-Aime will retire. His last day with Nintendo will be April 15. Doug Bowser, NOA’s current Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, will then succeed Reggie as President of Nintendo of America.

>“And rest assured, we will continue to build on his work to evolve and expand our brand, furthering Nintendo’s global mission of creating smiles. There are millions more of those to come.”

>“I really appreciate everything Reggie has done for Nintendo,” said Shuntaro Furukawa, President of Nintendo Co., Ltd. “Inside and outside our company, Reggie is known as an exceptional leader. We are grateful that he is leaving the business in good shape with strong momentum. While we will miss him and we wish him the very best in his retirement, we are also pleased to have such an able successor ready to step into that role. Doug Bowser and the rest of the team will ensure a seamless transition and continued momentum for Nintendo.”

>“Nintendo owns a part of my heart forever,” Fils-Aime said. “It’s a part that is filled with gratitude – for the incredibly talented people I’ve worked with, for the opportunity to represent such a wonderful brand, and most of all, to feel like a member of the world’s most positive and enduring gamer community. As I look forward to departing in both good health and good humor, this is not ‘game over’ for me, but instead ‘leveling up’ to more time with my wife, family and friends.”

I'll miss him unironically.

He was a nobody, dont let his frequent oublic appearrances deceive you. Nintendo has lost nothing

That makes me really sad but I wish him the best. He's a one of a kind individual and Nintendo won't be the same without his presence at Directs or E3

Doug Bowser was hired towards the end of Wii U era and likely the reason the Switch has been so successfully marketed in the West thus far.

It was nice while it lasted. I hope Reggie enjoys retirement, he's earned it.

Nintendo has gotten better since Iwata's death though.

I still cant belive that there was a person backstage that didnt say.
>You might want to go with a better suit to not look like a bond villain.

Neat.

I consider Koizumi Iwatas replacement if anything. That guy has almost as much charm when he hosts the directs.

>President Bowser

we did it

Used to work at EA. Was hired as VP of marketing and sales and was the main factor in Switch's marketing success (at least in North America) Got promoted to President of Marketing and Sales only a year after joining NoA.

Clearly the dude knows what he's doing with how well Switch is selling in NoA as well as software.

I unironically would rather see Miyamoto: the hack retire than Reggie. I feel the fans are owed a fucking explanation here.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

fuck man its an end of an era

But his name tho

Perhaps he just got a job offer from somewhere else that gets him bigger bucks

He worked for EA before NoA hired him

Oh shit it is

True

First Iwata, now Reggie... Fuck, man. I don't like this and and I don't want this, but the guy really needs to stop and enjoy life.

It blows my mind that people actually want Mother 3 to be localised or even worse, remade. I can see the screeches of "soulless!" "censorship!" "muh treehouse!!!!" already. Then everybody will just say to play the fucking fan translation which has been possible for ages now.

No it was sent to Treehouse, the people who censor games

He's a PR guy who had tons of charisma.

As long as Bowser likes anime games and will uncensor them

It looks retarded

He's charismatic.

He played along with them, paired with whatever charisma he had, made Nintendo seem more approachable. Which is why people like him/nintendo

Why is pixel art so pleasing to look at?

He had decent charisma and was perfectly willing to go along with the silly stuff Nintendo planned for E3 skits and such.

I still believe that was a nice gesture, it just hasn't aged well.

Yea Forums always like to pretend that the past never happens and that people in the past somehow will have premonition or some shit.

That particular E3 was really good.

the last soul of the presidents

He can't be that bad, his name is Bowser.

Someone post the Jojo ed version of this pic

It was sent after a nintendo direct

Sad for that. Although I am happy that a man can finally go home to his wife, his family and his friends again.
Also, can't wait to see the Bowser memes coming out of this, like having the turtle Bowser actually wearing a president outfit and whatnot

Never say never. It's easy to forget when 3D World dropped and a lot of people were PISSED about how it was a "proper" 3D Mario and then we got Odyssey with a full explanation as to how they're two separate types of 3D Mario. Miyamoto has made mistakes for sure, but he's still just human at the end of the day. I'm sure the next PM will be back to normal at this rate.

No, that reason is that IS is incompetent. Super Paper Mario had absolutely nothing to do with the Mario universe so Miyamoto told them to fuck off.

Hi, it's me Reggie. President of Nintendo of America from Reggie Fils-Aimé to Chris on 28 January 2009 1:16 AM
But right now, I'm just strictly Reggie. I'm not going to even bother sending this through my Nintendo email address. Because you know what? This isn't business. This is strictly personal. I have something to say to you, and you need to listen. This has nothing to do with Nintendo right now, this is just me and you. Mano e mano. Man to man. I don't normally do this, but hell, I just need to get this off my chest.

If you don't know who I am, then allow me to introduce myself. My name is Reggie Fils-Aime. I've been kicking ass and taking names ever since the E3 expo at 2004 where I made my debut, where from then on I eventually earned my position as president of this company.

I'm known to be a loud mouth. I don't take crap from anyone. So if you are easily offended, I suggest you stop reading. But don't worry, I'll try to go easy on you, key word being "try" here.

But with that out of the way, I just want to say something to you personally.

May I kindly ask, what the hell is wrong with you? Are you for real or what? I was there for everything. I saw Miyamoto waiting for up to 2 days in the bitter cold for you to show up and you stood him up. I was even there trying to arrange everything for you, even setting up someone to escort you to our building complete with bodyguards and full security because I knew you were concerned about safety. And for what? So you could just NOT show up? I mean, I don't even know what to think, it's just completely unbelievable.

I'm sorry but it just is. I heard what you said to Mr Miyamoto too, your reasons for not coming. And I just have to say. How old are you? You're 27, if I'm not mistaken right?

27! I mean, think about it, you are almost 30! What is a man of your age still doing being coddled by his parents? Let me tell you, when I was about your age, I was already married and had children!

You'll miss him because he wasn't a company president, he was a funny cartoon character that acted in skits and had anime fights against japanese cartoon characters.

It's his charisma.

Remember when 10 years ago when Reggie wanted to wind down being a public face and they had that women host E3 instead? The backlash was swift that people wanted Reggie back. Reggie's a cult of personality that people liked beyond the memes.

Nintendo leadership will never be as charismatic as the Iwata/Miyamoto/Reggie trip ever again

I'm glad he is going out on his own terms, without any scandals and on a huge high note for the company.

Isn't Doug Bowser an ex Vice President for business at EA?

>"Nintendo holds the publishing rights to Fatal Frame Wii, which was developed by Tecmo LTD and Grasshopper Manufacture and released in Japan on July 31st, 2008. Nintendo of America has since then decided not to publish the title in North America ? consequently, the title will not be released in this territory. As the owner of the IP, Tecmo feels very unfortunate that the fans of the series in North America will not have a chance to play the game, but respects the final decision made by Nintendo of America".

When companies know you love them unconditionally that's when they have free reign to whatever they want to you

He embraced the memes. He was a great PR guy.

It's fake. The text is lifted from a Warner Bros DVD addressing old racism in cartoons. Pretty cool thing for them to do, but yeah - Nintendo one is fake.
