When Reggie Fils-Aimé decided to announce his retirement yesterday, it didn't take long for millions of gamers around the world to share their gratitude and best wishes to him. He even got some from his "fierce competitors".
Both Shawn Layden, the Chairman of SIE Worldwide Studios, and Phil Spencer, Executive Vice-President of Gaming at Microsoft, have sent messages of love and admiration to the retiring President of Nintendo of America. Layden writes:
"Reggie, thanks for all the games and your leadership in our industry. We are a better and brighter place for your wisdom and efforts. With appreciation and best wishes from all your friends @PlayStation"
While Spencer has this to say:
"All the best to Reggie Fils-Aime on the next phase of his life and career. Great leader, industry partner and friend."
Not exactly groundbreaking news, but it's always nice to the three console-makers play nice with each other from time to time. Even if Microsoft and Nintendo seems to do it a lot lately, even to the point where it's rumoured Xbox Game Pass is coming to the Switch.
