Reggie may be gone but his memes are forever.

Its been a good 15 years! Salute to you Mr.Regginator

Reggie to me felt like a Miyamoto, Iwata, etc. etc. To me Nintendo was the whole family, his sense of humor, his character, it was what being a Nintendo fan meant. He had this tremendous amount of charisma and I will miss him.

Reggie, you will be dearly missed. All your jokes, skits, and amazing charisma put a smile on every Nintendo fan. Wishing you all the best in life and retirement.

Nintendo without Reggie is like EA games without micro transactions. It doesn’t feel right 😂

Bowser is taking over Nintendo of America! What alternative universe have I stepped in?!!

[Nerdstrategy]

Being able to retire is a rare thing in this century. I'm honestly happy for anyone who is able to do that. I wouldn't want to stall anyone for wanting to do something they want to do with their life, and would want them to be happy. And am I shocked? Na, he did his work, got to where he wanted, made his dent and was able to now invest time in being with his family. Which at that level of success you sell your life away to it, and not saying it's a bad thing, it's just how it is.

Imagine if the day he retires he announces Mother 3 remake.

Big guy, big heart. I'll miss him a lot.

Doug Bowser is taking over.

KING KOOPA

The one thing more important than being president of Nintendo of America: Family

Today marks the 33rd Anniversary of The Legend of Zelda. This was not supposed to happen today. My body was not ready.

Bowser has officially captured the Mushroom Kingdom.

"My name is Reggie, I'm about kicking ass, I'm about taking names and we're about making games!"


So long Reggie, enjoy your retirement :)

Best personality in the video game industry

It's gonna be hard to get use to another CEO for that company in the US. He was always the go to guy to steady the ship when things got rough.

Great opportunity to celebrate his achievements.

Growing up and becoming invested in gaming and seeing Reggie for more than a decade, it really is sad to see him go. I'm so happy for him to be able to retire and be with his family, but it's all bittersweet.

Even you Johnny, I've been watching for such a long time now. Way back in the beginning when you were just getting started, before AGG, back when it was guys like PeteDorr who were the most active. I don't comment much, I've never had contact with any of you. I've just been watching and enjoying and you've been a part of my life for so long now that it would be weird if you weren't making videos anymore. It really is like I know you in a weird way. Now you're doing reviews with Victor Lucas, another person I've watched since I was only just a kid. It's pretty crazy.

Truly makes me appreciate how much this hobby means to me and the people who are a big part of it.

Dude, you made me think he died. I only looked at the thumbnail.

Reggie moment for me, he responded to my wedding and wrote me a letter to me and my wife in 2017. Class act!!!

Wow, did this news ever catch me off guard, Reggie will be sorely missed 😥🤯 I can remember back in 2004 when he announced the Nintendo DS, you know it's kinda ironic in the sense that Nintendo has slowed sales of games for the Nintendo DS and here Reggie is announcing his retirement. It definately is the end of an era. All the best to him 😊 he deserves to spend time with family, I mean after all it's what anyone retiring wants to be able to spend time with the family you could never see from working all the time. I am definitely going to miss seeing him on Nintendo direct streams over YouTube here or even E3. Maybe one day Nintendo will have come back as a guest to announce something really good that everyone's been waiting for.
