    This may be my mid life brain speaking but didn’t Reggie retire like 2 and a half years ago or so? It couldn’t have been that long ago.

    This seems like a very short span.

      I had the same thought, but apparently he was in charge for the release of the switch, so it’s been a minute. That there Covid black hole of time at work if I had to guess

      No, Doug Bowser Jr is terrible and always has been. He needs to have his 7 other kids, who were all around before Jr, to become co-CEOs.

    Cool. Can we get someone that actually enjoys games and makes decisions that benefit us rather than the shareholders?

      its still a business at the end of the day. remember the atrocious creator partner program? that was under Reggie and Iwata. all they did was put a good face on a corporation. the new leadership won’t be any different.
