As the Wii U was sinking (despite some good games), I was in a period from about mid 2014 to mid 2015 where I really thought Iwata, Reggie, and some others at NIntendo needed to go. Reggie might've needed to go, but I had no idea the next system would be awesome with the concept approved by Iwata.
I didn't become some Iwata fanboy or think he was amazing just because he died, but his death and in particular Switch made me appreciate him more. I also continued to learn about some of the awesome stuff he'd done throughout his career.

Honestly, I wasn't a big fan of Nintendo of America during the Wii/Wii U era, and that included Reggie. They kept quite a few good games out of the American market.  I wasn't exactly upset when he left.
