Reggie: Our Competitors Need To Be Worried

March 13, 2010 in News comments 10

It looks like Nintendo have some big plans for this year. Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime recently told IGN that: "All of our competitors need to be worried about what we're going to do."

Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime has said that every competitor of the platform giant needs to be worried about what's on the way from them.

Sony and Microsoft have motion devices on the way for their own consoles, and with the expected price cut of the iPod Touch, speculation that the sales of the Wii and DS are suffering are lingering in the air. However, Nintendo are still confident of the future.

"All of our competitors need to be worried about what we're going to do." said Fils-Aime in an interview with IGN. "I don't worry about what they're going to do. We're going to continue to innovate."

    Reggie's right, if I was MS or Sony at this point I would be seriously worried, I can't imagine how much suffering their respective employees go through whenever they read articles like this; if the laughing doesn't kill them then the ridiculous amount of facepalming will probably cause severe brain damage.
    Nintendo's going to kill their competition at this rate.


    On a serious note whilst I'm sure MS and Sony may well be weary of the upcoming E3 due to the next Zelda game's reveal, unless Ninty have a heck of a lot more planned for it I highly doubt they're going to be beating down their competition with Zelda and a Vitality Sensor.

    PS: In the instance an amazing game that actually uses the Vitality Sensor is announced and turns out great, this comment was actually an incredibly elaborate way of praising it and I definately always knew that it would achieve greatness.

      Your too right! these comments from Reggie are getting more and more hilarious each time he posts a new one! I can't see Nintendo's E3 being too great this year, it'll be the same old predictable stuff. The last 2 Ninty E3's have been god awful.

        The sad thing is Reggie is single-handedly managing to make Nintendo's image ten times worse than it's gotten during this generation every time he opens his mouth. It saddens me to think that in 10 years or so it's going to be people like Reggie Nintendo are remembered for by newer gamers.

        Besides that though Ninty have blown their load on the first half of the year, unless they've got one heck of a surprise in store the only thing they've got left for E3 is Zelda, and that goddamn Vitality Sensor.

          I dunno though, I don't mind Reggie. He's like a hype-man who got stuck with a terrible act.

          He comes out and says things like, "Man you should see what we got coming!" and Nintendo brings out Wii Music and a Heart monitor. I doubt Reggie's like shit yeah, isn't that awesome. He's probably face palming too. That's his job though, talk up whatever Nintendo is doing.

    I think Sony and Microsoft are more concerned with competing against video game companies, not interactive software companies that occasionally make video games.

      Any marketing guru will tell you that's stupid. They need to be thinking like their competition is home entertainment. That is the industry that they are in.
