Just because he is shit at Public Relations doesn't mean he should quit. He is probably decent at running the internals of the American subsidiary (though they should fix their marketing strategy). I do think he should stop the digs at the competition and take a few classes in PR. |
Is he? Reputation is hard to gain but easy to lose in this industry. And NoA have been doing nothing but demeaning their own reputation. Nintendo's ad policy for one. Lack of games for another. Where are the american nintendo developers? What about comments about third parties tech, companies he could be relying on in the future, which explains absense of a lot of third party support. When you lose rep, you lose customers support, and in turn, you get lesser sales ala wii u

Most of these decisions are Iwata's responsibilities and the responsibility of the parent company. Nintendo of America may deal with these, but it will be most likely under the guidance and the request of the big guys in japan. Reggie is more about the product distribution in America, marketing and organising the internals of NoA.
To illustrate my point further, it wouldn't make sense if you blame all these issues on Nintendo of Australia or Nintendo of Korea.
And I do agree that Reggie sucks donkey dick in Marketing and PR.
