Nintendo of America shocked fans around the world last night with the announcement its iconic figurehead, Reggie Fils-Aime, would be retiring after 15 years at the top of the company.
But while fans were still wishing Reggie well, attention was already turning to the new man in charge, the improbably named Doug Bowser.
Mr. Bowser has already been at Nintendo for four years, but his ascension to NOA boss makes him one of the most visible characters in the entire company. And with a name like that – Doug! lol – Twitter was quick to begin the memes.
It’s the first day of knowing that Nintendo of America’s new president’s name is Doug Bowser, and the jokes are old already.
Also it’s not funny for the NoA employees who now have to search the building to find the stars to unlock his office door when they need to talk to him
