My body was not ready for this. My body was not ready at all!
To me, Reggie embodies and symbolizes Nintendo just as much as Miyamoto or Iwata (RIP). When a big change like this happens, it always makes me feel sad because it's a reminder that as time goes on, things will change whether you want them to or not. I could not envision anyone else in Reggie's role other than him. Yeah, he had his faults and made his mistakes, but what CEO doesn't? Suddenly, him not going to be there is like a big punch in the gut. But, I'm sure Doug Bowser is going to do a great job once he gets settled in and I look forward to the new memes that will surface now that "Bowser" is running Nintendo.
As for Reggie, it seems like he's going out on his terms, with happiness, pride, and his head held high, which is what we should all hope to have and achieve whenever we get to our retirements. I wish him nothing but great health and happiness in his future along with his family.
Thank you, Reggie, for everything!
