Reggie says it’s “gratifying to see” Switch doing so well, will eventually show his Animal Crossing island
Reggie Fils-Aime couldn’t have retired as Nintendo of America’s president at a better time. Following the tough times of the Wii U era, Switch has been incredibly successful. Essentially, he was able to go out on top.
Speaking with Washington Post, Reggie said it’s “gratifying to see” Switch doing so well, including the “tremendous momentum” the system currently has. He told the publication:
“When I retired it was important for me that the company is well positioned, and that it would be able to continue delivering smiles and unique experiences. As an executive who retires, the best thing to see is the company continue to do well as [that executive has] transitioned away from the business, and tremendous momentum the Nintendo Switch has is gratifying to see.”
Like many gamers, Reggie has spent his time recently playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons. “When I feel it’s up to public review, I’ll do some sort of reveal of my island,” he said.
