For the record, I'm a big fan of Nintendo and video games in general. I also appreciate Reggie for his personality and character working at Nintendo. In this book, I got a good glimpse at what Reggie's life was like before working at Nintendo and after. I didn't know much about his upbringing or working as a a CEO prior to Nintendo at Pizza Hut or Guiness. The anecdotes give readers good insight into who Reggie is. The premise is how he "disrupted the game" and operates as sort of a "self-help" book on how you can do the same. I don't love this approach. It makes sense where it makes sense but other times comes across as forced. While I recognize that it wasn't easy for Reggie to break into Nintendo's industry and the power of some of his moves, the biography reads very self-indulgently. It didn't feel respectful of his relationship with the superiors (Satoru Iwata especially). Frequently, the format is "Iwata wants to do something one way, I challenged him into doing it another way, and then it worked." That style of writing makes Reggie look like the hero of Nintendo at those moments which feels insincere to his peers and the company's history. I feel like some higher-up / editor or something pushed Reggie to frame the book in this way to make it brandable -- it is only 200ish pages. If Reggie writes another book, I'd like him to do so with less limitations and more recognition towards the impact of his peers. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

The only "mistakes" he talks about making are not being persuasive enough to push his idea that would have fixed everything. It may be that Reggie is just a near-perfect person, but I could have used more here.
Also, not enough info on the Bigfoot Pizza.
Lots of easily digestible lessons about working with different cultures and different markets that are really interesting and lots of info on behind the scenes decisions at Nintendo, so I got what I wanted from it. ( )
