Why would Reggie make a better president? NoA has been completely useless the last ten years. It took a massive fan campaign just to get them to port three fucking games over. And by the way, still waiting on Mother 3.


Yes because NoA are just allowed to do whatever they want. I'm fairly certain (based on some I think authentic leaks I read like a year ago) that there has been some internal frustration for NoA on the Japanese aspect of the company. I'm fairly certain Reggie would be regionalizing a lot more Japanese games if he could, he would probably be marketing a lot more if he could, and I am 99% certain he would make Nintendo have guns blazing in a real E3 press conference every year. He would also connect a whole lot better in American 3rd party companies and I would imagine would push for a lot better internet features. In fact, I would guess Reggie disagrees with so many upper management decisions that Nintendo has considered firing him but won't because he is just about the ONLY aspect of that company that connects with the West. Nintendo needs Reggie a WHOLE lot more than they need Iwata, regardless of their roles. Reggie could be the best figurehead in gaming if Nintendo promoted him.

Personally, I'm fine with Iwata as the head, however I do wish NoJ would allow NoA to have a lot more freedom than they currently do.


indeed
