GameDaily recently caught up with former Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime. Reggie retired from the company earlier this year after more than fifteen years with the company.
Reggie had some interesting things to say during the interview, and spoke about his decision to retire, his relationship with the late Nintendo president and CEO Satoru Iwata, and how the company wanted to shake up the industry with Wii and DS rather than going with “more horsepower and more accurate visual representation.”
We’ve rounded up these comments from GameDaily’s interview below. You can find the full discussion here.

Atelier Ryza has been one of the series’ most successful entries. Gust is already hard at work on the next game, and during a live stream today, spoke vaguely about what plans are in the pipeline for the future.
Gust mentioned how it has received all kinds of feedback since a great deal of people played Atelier Ryza. Based on those responses, the team feels like it needs to raise the base quality of its Atelier games. Because Atelier Ryza’s theme of “summer and youth” went over well, Gust feels it should continue to insert clear themes into its games.

Posted on 5 years ago by Oni Dino(@Oni_Dino) in General Nintendo, Podcast | 0 comments
Hello my happy helpers and fortune cookies! This week on NEP, Oni Dino and Galen are talking The Game Awards, the industry and mobile monetization schemes. We chat about the nominees, snubs, predictions for Nintendo and past instances—new Smash DLC fighter? Metroid? Bayonetta? Who knows! Let’s keep it logical, though.
Then we tackle Animal Crossing Pocket Camp getting a subscription service with a very opinionated argument over if free-to-play games like these should even be considered games. We finish things off with some Pokemon talk on the new designs, and the Gizmodo situation in our listener mail segment.
If you’re enjoying NEP, please consider giving us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts, aka new iTunes. It’s incredibly helpful in getting us exposed to new listeners through algorithms, so we would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you for listening!
Darksiders Genesis dev says Strife first-person shooter would be “a no brainer”
Posted on 5 years ago by Oni Dino(@Oni_Dino) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
While speaking with Nintendo Everything, Darksiders Genesis developers Joe Madureira and Ryan Stefanelli have brought up another possible idea for the franchise: a first-person shooter. In fact, Madureira said that a new title in that genre featuring Strife would be “a no-brainer.”
Thus far, three main Darksiders games have been released that feature different characters from the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: War, Death, and Fury. Only Strife hasn’t been given his own starring role, though he’ll be properly introduced for the first time in Darksiders Genesis.
