Difference between revisions of "Reggielution"

'''Reggie Fils-Aime''' is the president and COO of Nintendo of America. The fad, dubbed "The Reggielution", revolves around a quote said by Fils-Aime at E3 2004: "My name is Reggie; I'm about kickin' ass, I'm about takin' names, and we're about makin' games". The fad began with {{ytmnd|reggie|REGGIE & THE REGGIELUTION}}, and didn't really catch on at first, as very few ytmnds were made about it. The fad was revived at E3 2005 with the "Reggie dance", the first to feature this being {{ytmnd|reggiedance|The Reggie Dance}}, and this spawned many spinoff ytmnds. Also, a quote from Nintendo president Satoru Iwata (Who's your daddy?), first featured in {{ytmnd|tookreggiesname|Reggie, who your daddy?}} also helped the fad, and even spawned it's own fad, albeit much smaller. Also, some ytmnds crossed over the Reggielution with other ytmnd fads (among other things), such as [[What is Love!?]] and [[Secret Nazi]]. This was first seen in {{ytmnd|reggiefaces|The many faces of Reggie}}. There is also a popular gif which features a crudely edited animated gif if Reggie eating several competing consoles, first seen in {{ytmnd|reggiechomp|GO REGGIE GO!}}, but made popular with {{ytmnd|reggieiwatarap|Reggie kicks ass while Iwata says WOW}}, which features the gif along with other Reggielution pics and quotes from E3 2005. More recent ytmnds, such as {{ytmnd|reggiesings|Reggie Sings With AC/DC}} use quotes from E3 2006, such as "big damn truck", which is considered particularly humorous. Some ytmnds also feature crossovers with Sony's E3 2006 press conference, first appearing in {{ytmnd|ristarreggieracer|Reggie and Kaz Team Up For Planet Sonata}}. The Reggielution has also crossed over with other ytmnd fads such as [[Ualuealuealeuale]] and [[Cake Song]].
