Looking back how did he do it? He's probably the only likable, wholesome corporate guy in the industry.

Because you're braindead.
he fat and funny, also has a good voice
OHHH MYY GOOOD HE'S JUST LIKE US GUYS!! HE'S SO LIKEABLE!!!!
He knew that games are supposed to be for fun.
wasn't he supposed to announce one last game in april or did i miss it?
This.
>some corporate PR guy who never played a video game in his life
>likeable
he played melee agains't hbox, and animal crossing new leaf
Corporate puppet does live demo. Wow
That's all a facade, it was his job to put up an act that indoctrinates their consumer base. Reminder that this shitskin worked for Pizza Hut and MTV.
He claims to have played A Link to the Past back when he was young, and that might be true and not completely out of the realm of plausibility, but it was just one game. Let's not pretend playing ONE fucking game from your youth is enough to give you street cred. Do you really think he was playing video games back then while he was working to get his career?
What about Kaz?
even if you don't like him you have to admit that he was, in general, liked by most people. I don't think any company has really been able to do that with some corporate figure since like... Jared from Subway(until he was outed as a cunnysseur)
He was charismatic on stage, that’s it. Behind the scenes he probably wasn’t very different than any other CEO.
It helped that most of the era he was backing was Iwata’s time, who was more open and out there as a CEO, regardless of bad business moves.
Its nice for Nintendo to have hired this guy back then, being inclusive before it was a thing. I guess he did pretty good taking into account his chromosome defency and mongoloid factions
>That's all a facade
So? Even if it was (and yeah it probably was) the fact remains that he still comes off as likable when no other game company suit does.
P5S
A friend of mine was in an elevator with him at a gamestop meeting a few years back, said he was an asshole who ignored him when he tried to say hi, at the same time I can mark that up to be that Reggie wasn't exactly enjoying the day.
Just like how Bill Clinton is objectively the sleaziest, scummiest president we've ever had, everyone who met him always felt like he was a cool guy.
Reggie is kinda like that. Its charisma.
Because even though he had no interest in video games, he understood his company's consumer base.
>0:57
Kaz knew
People can say that it wasn't genuine all they want and that's probably true, but it didn't matter if his persona through Nintendo was real or not because he made it very convincing. Whether he was a "real" fan or not, he knew what he was doing and he did it well because he understood Nintendo's fanbase.
Stat dump into CHA will let you get away with all sorts of shit you have no business getting away with.
That's not a good thing. It's very slimy. Just because only HE did it and it looked welcoming to YOU does not justify the actual REALITY of the situation.
Most of you zoomer children were too young back then to even be cognizant of what was happening in the gaming world. They introduced him in 2003 at E3. You know what he fucking did? He went in guns ablazing saying cringy shit "I'M ABOUT TAKING NAMES" because the GameCube was a flop and getting SLAUGHTERED by the PS2. So they got his ass from Pizza Hut and MTV because they needed some sort of attitude, some kind of ammunition. Under his watch they'd try desperate things like plastering Samus on Jones soda bottles, holding adult rave parties for FUCKING NINTENDO GAMES, and funding the abomination that was Geist (The so-called Miyamoto's "Halo killer". To be fair, Reggie saw it was a farce, but he let it happen anyways).
No one back then memed him. In fact no one really paid much attention to him. They were more concerned about droughts than some fucking PR guy doing the whole "How do you do fellow kids" routine. No self-respecting Nintendo fan over the age of 12 was under the fantasy that their brand was in any way as cool as Reggie was putting it. Their main console of choice was a fucking lunchbox with colorful Playskool buttons.
It was only until after the Wii somewhere in the middle of its lifespan did you zoomer children grow up and start to fall for his Jewish tricks, starting with Wii Fit. It only got more flanderized as time went on with Nintendo Directs and social media. Just because it gave you warm feelings doesn't mean it was a good thing. It set a dangerous precedent. These companies are NOT your fucking friends, they only want your MONEY, they will do whatever it takes to get it.
Damn right, CHA builds are overpowered for corporate fuckers
he's only likeable because he's awkward in a hes-trying-his-best osrt of way
Why are you TYPING like THIS?
>fils-aime
>letting the french into vidya
this was what did it. ever notice everything bad about video games is Ubisoft and Blizzard's fault? It's because they're french. They fucking suck at technology and electronics.
You are very clearly misremembering some things considering Geist started developement in 2002 and approved 8 months later. Reggie didn't enjoy join Nintendo until dec 2003 and appeared at the 2004 e3
you underestimate autism
He didn't insult his customers
This. Reggie had a way with fast talk, but he always tried to focus on the games.
Imagine being this retarded
>[corporate PR guy] is so wholesome and relatable!
You're being tricked. You're a smoothbrain. You've been played like a fiddle.
At least Cuckman is being honest(i don't agree with this faggot btw), Reggie was just a character, nothing more, nothing less.
all of the nintendo guys are. they just hire good people
Vivendi doesn't control Blizzard anymore
