Reggie Fils-Aime vs. Chuck Norris

Ever since Nintendo VP Reggie Fils-Aime used the phrase "taking ass and kicking names" err... I mean "taking names and kicking ass" at 2004's E3 press event, the man has been perceived as a bad-boy of video game executives. Well just how bad is this guy? And could he take on the beloved Chuck Norris? Well we decided to replace Chuck's name with Reggie's on the now famed list of Random Chuck Norris Facts to see if it had the same effect. You be the judge.

"Reggie Fils-Aime does not hunt because the word hunting infers the probability of failure. Reggie Fils-Aime goes killing."
"When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Reggie Fils-Aime."
"The chief export of Reggie Fils-Aime is pain."
"When Reggie Fils-Aime sends in his taxes, he sends blank forms and includes only a picture of himself, crouched and ready to attack. Reggie Fils-Aime has not had to pay taxes ever."
"Superman owns a pair of Reggie Fils-Aime pajamas."
"According to Einstein's theory of relativity, Reggie Fils-Aime can actually roundhouse kick you yesterday."
"There's no such thing as a tornado. Reggie Fils-Aime just hates trailer parks."

Taking part in internet fads is now a bannable offence on the somethingawful.com forums.

Don't you start too.

Everyone got really tired of it really quick.

Heres a few good ones.

While still in the womb, Reggie Fils-Aime cut his own umbillical cord because, "he didn't need any help".

Reggie Fils-Aime once took sleeping pills, they made him blink

Jesus wears a wristband that says WWRFAD.

Aliens do exist, they are just waiting for Reggie Fils-Aime to die before they attack.

There are no disabled people, just people who have met Reggie Fils-Aime.

Bullets dodge Reggie Fils-Aime.

Spence, how the hell do they enforce that?

I haven't seen the new rule yet, but I imagine we accidentally START half of the stupid internet fads out there.

You know I did this same thing in a different post right here on Joystiq when reggie talked about how the Nintendo revolution will sell more than the Xbox 360. and You know what it still holds trues

"Reggie's tears cures cancer! But he never cried! EVER!"

one More

"Reggie Fils-Aime and Iwata walked into an EB. The game retail establishment soon exploded, as no one building could contain such awesomeness by itself!"

K, Chuck Norris is offically played out as of last Friday.

Nice job copying Chuck Norris facts. Reggis would get his ass destroyed.

Shit, it works! Reggie is our new Chuck Norris! Viva!

Can't we let this Chuch Norris shit die yet. It was funny when I read it about Vin Diesel many, many months (perhaps over a year) ago....

what�s w/ the recent Chuck Norris fads?

If Chuck Norris had a pansy name like Reggie, he would have to kick his own ass. This article is an abomination.

My judgement: Slow News Day.

Reggie is eerie I think. But he does a good job - he's got the press just waiting for his next speech. that's what a good marketeer/pr-professional should do.

It would probably have worked better with his nickname "The Reginator". "Reggie" sounds powerful, but "Fils-Aime" (no matter which way you pronounce it), kinda takes the oomph out of it.

Who cares. Reggie pwns (even Chuck Norris, albeit BARELY).

Viva-la-Reggilution!

We did this with a crazy rabbi at my school, much funnier

"7. Taking part in internet fads is now a bannable offence on the somethingawful.com forums.

Don't you start too."

Internet fads... such as forums?

Roundhouse kick you yesterday
LOL I gotta remember that one.

Roundhouse BABY!!!

While Reggie is badass, he cannot touch Chuck Norris.

BTW, I need to get that image on a shirt...

hahahahahahahahaha- awesome.

reggie clearly came to do 2 things, and he's all out of gum...

i love you joystiq, but sometimes i just wonder: how can some posts can be so exceedingly wack? it almost defies imagination.

"Superman owns a pair of Reggie Fils-Aime pajamas."

LOLZ!!!!111 That's the funniest thing I've heard all day!

By the way, "Fils-Aim?litterally means "Loved-Son" in French. I just have trouble seeing someone called Reginald Loved-Son as a bad ass... He sounds so sweet! More like a kitten than Chuck Norris.
