Ben Harper out of nowhere

 

[Willy Wanka]

Very nice speech from Reggie there.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Touching speech by Reg

 

[Auctopus]

"He was my friend and Im better for it"

killer line.

 

[Crayolan]

I think that's the most genuine I've ever heard Reggie.

 

[Skelter]

Reggie talking about all the fantastic courage that Iwata had as leader, very true words indeed. Really hope Nintendo continue in his spirit.

• Wii
• Nintendogs
• Brain Age

and the other stuff Reggie listed...man Iwata really did have some brilliant ideas.

 

[Skrams]

That reggie looking up moment as if he holding back tears

God fuck

 

[Japanmanx3]

This is really special. Thanks Geoff.

 

[Vire]

please stop Ben Harper, seriously going to cry.

 

[Aaronrules380]

Uhh ok?

It was a bad joke, and I already apologized

Spoiler

my God so sad

 

[Kusagari]

That was easily the classiest thing these shows have ever had.

 

[Easy_D]

How is Reggie making a eulogy sound like a sales pitch.

Well, it's not a far off assumption that he's leaning back towards his past experience in holding presentations just to keep it together, he looked pretty sad.

 

[aly]

Pls don't cry Reggie. I can't take it

 

[Ashodin]

I cried with the line "he was my friend." COULDNT TAKE IT

 

[thefro]

Linking him to Gameboy's sales is a huge stretch...

He helped develop Pokemon Gold/Silver

 

[AdanVC]

What a beautiful tribute to Satoru Iwata :')

 

[Sodding_Gamer]

Ben Harper?!?!?! Holy fuck my favourite musician just arrived!

 

[Anth0ny]

Awesome speech.

 

[Soyongdori]

I'm not feeling anything.

 

[inked_illusion]

damn that quote, "we play games to make yourselves feel younger than what we are"

not verbatim but you get the point

 

[PhaZZe]

damn reggie, you are a Professional dude. sad face

 

[HUELEN10]

I miss our friend...


I miss him a lot.

 

[ByWatterson]

Ben Harper? Wow. This show is the real deal.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Holy shit,
Im a waterfall.

 

[DietRob]

There are some straight up miserable people in this thread.

Yea it's really off putting and a stark reminder about why I almost exclusively stay in OT.

 

[RevolverRoden]

"Alright, let's cut to Reggie memorializing Iwata."
"Oh, what music should we play?"
"Generic EDM sounds appropriate."

ikr
what was up with that

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Sorry you had to find it out here guys, but you are not unique. It's true. You probably aren't. Live with it.

 

[ViciousDS]

Iwata did man......he gave no fucks and went all out.....dude was fearless.

 

[DeadlyVirus]

I miss last years super close angles...

 

[Azure Dream]

Nice sentiment, but I wish Reggie had a speaking mode other than forceful shouting.

 

[~Kinggi~]

that was actually kind of great

 

[sora87]

Damn this is too emotional

 

[outunderthestars]

Reggie tearing up at the end got me. :*(

I miss Iwata.

 

[GreyWind]

So sad

 

[muzzymate]

Damn Quantum Break looks fantastic!!!

Also, nice Iwata tribute.

 

[Lashley]

Reggie: You aren't special. Iwata is special. But not you

The fuck?

 

[brandonh83]

I'm not feeling anything.

Okay.

 

[DarkChronic]

Great tribute. Great speech.

Guys, I think Geoff did it. These awards are really kind of fantastic so far.

 

[Slixshot]

Yo the awards and trailers are great, but tonight will be remembered for two speeches:

Greg Miller and Reggie Fils-Aime.

 

[lazybones18]

who's the Pharrell knockoff?

 

[Floody]

If Reggie cries my hearth might explode.

 

[hoserx]

Reggie nailed this.

 

[Gnilres]

Well this is absolutely fucking heartbreaking.

 

[Quonny]

Man that speech was rough in the beginning. Ended strong, but this song feels overly cheesy.

 

[NotLiquid]

It's too late in the night for me to start feeling these things again...

 

[Wagram]

Pretty good speech from Reggie. Iwata will be remembered forever.

 

[105.Will]

Sheesh. Good job Reggie, that couldn't have been easy.

[SmartWaffles]

Damn it I didn't ask for this ;_;
