reggie fils aime nintendo job

Reggie Fils-Aime spent about 15 years at Nintendo, including more than a decade as president of Nintendo of America. His time with the company was marked by lots of success, memories, and plenty of memes. Interestingly though, Reggie recently revealed that all of his trusted advisors told him not to take the job.

Reggie shared that nugget of information during a talk at SXSW 2022. When asked why his advisors felt that way, he stated:

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is three months away, so we’re definitely feeling the hype. Monolith Soft has said that this new game can be played if you haven’t gone through the first two, but those that really want the most out of it will want to see what the previous outings have to offer – especially from a story perspective.

Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and 2 are both special in their own right, but some fans have a clear preference for one over the other. With that in mind, we want to hear from you about which one you like more (we haven’t forgotten about Xenoblade Chronicles X, but obviously 1 and 2 are more similar to each other). How do you feel they compare from the perspective of the gameplay, world, story, characters, and music? Share your thoughts with us in the comments.
