Reggie Fils-Aimé
When Nintendo's new president announced "I'm about kickin' ass, I'm about takin' names, and we're about makin' games" to a crowd of gamers, people knew they were in for something different. By sticking to the idea that the Wii could succeed with its unique motion-sensitive controls while the PlayStation3 and Xbox 360 beefed up graphics but not much game-wise, Fils-Aimé helped bring back Nintendo from its third-place ranking. He's credited with reshaping the company's image among people in the US, believing that the Wii appealed to gamers and non-gamers alike with its simple and interactive controls. While designer Shigeru Miyamoto and the Japanese heads of Nintendo were responsible for the Wii's excellence (and innovative design), it was Reggie's legwork that convinced us we really would like to play.

My family would like to thank you for the invention of the WII system...we have all the games you can think of .I wish they would come out with one of my all time favorites which is 'centipedes'. We love the wII fit. In which I lost 32 pounds as to date . I own any and all new products for the system. I feel it's the BEST system that was ever created...I have to ask ? Please invent centipedes for the WII ? I'm sure that would be a seller. Also we need more of the 70's and 80's songs for Rock Band 2 ...This the best entertainment and has brought our family closer than ever before. We look forward to our family fun with the "Thanks" of the WII. This also gives my spouse joy in which he's a disabled veteran and having him in a wheel chair, makes it convient for him to play with the children. Even though my spouse and children are all grown up. The WII will always make our family'a kid at heart' when we turn on the WII system. Thank you, Paula
