Reggie Fils Aime Accepts Ice Bucket Challenge
Reggie Fils-Aime Accepts Ice Bucket Challenge Nintendo Life His bucket is ready by Share: The Ice Bucket Challenge, a web phenomenon that has been raising millions for ALS research, is currently washing through the games industry and Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime is not expected to back down. The challenge is simple: film yourself getting doused by a bucket of ice water, post it to social media, and challenge your friends. The scheme was originally to raise awareness for the devastating condition known as ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig's disease), with participants able to donate to ALS research as a way to cop out of the ice bath. Most now are opting for both the bucket and charity, however. As , Reggie has been challenged by Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, who also called out Sony's Shuhei Yoshida and Valve's Gabe Newell. Spencer does his own polar bear impression in the video below: on The challenge has been accepted through Nintendo of America's Twitter account, with the implication that Reggie might try to kick things up a notch: 501859646357770240 There's a larger mystery that must be addressed, though: will Reggie still be considered a victor in the Ice Bucket Challenge if the water screams in terror and explodes into steam before hitting his skin? You have to take these things into consideration. [source ] Share: Comments ) Aww I thought Ice Climbers were confirmed beforereading the ttle lol. Knowing him, he'll probably just cheat and use the Fils-A-Mech. lol The ice and water is not ready... I think Reggie should dare Shigeru Miyamoto, Satoru Iwata, and Masahiro Sakurai to do the challenge, and the Ice Climbers to be revealed that same day. Oh man! Looking forward to the video! Why is everyone doing this all of a sudden? Ice Climbers: They fight ALS, while fighting their way into the Smash Bros. roster! I've got it! The icy water will change his outfit into Ice Mario clothes! Then he'll freeze somebody complaining about something! His Body is Ready!!! Who cares about games when you can have this type of hype!!!! Please Understand /shot Oh boy, can't wait to see how Reggie handles the ice cold water. He's gonna pull the oh I'm dumping money I'm donating instead thing I bet lol. The reputation of Nintendo is at stake here Reggie. Reggie Fils-A Mech would be the worst thing to accept the challenge. His body must prepare before it is ready. Reggie's jumping from the roof top into a pool of ice water in his Mario trunks right after Fils-A-Mech is done filling it up. Can't wait! Expecting lot's of "My body is ready" puns in the video! Just gonna wait for him to say his body is ready before he showers in the icy cold... One up?! In the next few days?! Man, Nintendo really is the master of hype. Fils-a-mech can't get wet, remember? He's like a mogwai. How convenient. Reggie taking on a ramped-up Ice Bucket challenge and revealing Ice Climbers for Smash Bros. would be a perfectly timed opportunity. Because this is the internet, my friend. This is the place where fads come to burn in a blaze of super nova glory before being forgotten forever. I know now I'm upset Charlie Sheen already did that. I've gotta be honest. Browsing late at night with the top post being a picture of the Ice Climbers, I thought they were confirmed for Smash Bros. Oh well, maybe tomorrow. :u Watch Reggie do it at the end of a Direct. I think the Ice Climbers should accept it as well. You showed that Ice Climbers pic at this time made me think they were just announced to return in Smash Bros. Could have posted this earlier Yeah cuz' Reggie is SOOOOOO hot... lol! Read the article. Please wait while Reggie begs Sakurai to let him reveal Ice Climbers early. I'm looking forward to Vladamir Putin's and Michelle Obama's. Vin Diesel nominated them. But maybe Reggie will use the opportunity to announce the Ice Climbers for Smash. I'm looking forward to seeing it. I've been donating for every one I've seen, so impress me Reggie. Good this is all for charity they need to do this kind of hype for charity more often! My question still stands It's actually been a popular trend for a while now. Both of the links below provide extensive details how this challenge went viral.
I wish he had not joined this trend. It's ridiculous, unnecessary, humiliating, and unpleasant. was ready way before this became cool.
Lord forbid our savior go through that. It's fine. I am more curious who Reggie is going to nominate. I really have no clue how you one-up an ice water bucket challenge. Dye the water and ice Mario colors? Beats the heck outta me.
Same here, nothing jumps out at me besides other Nintendo execs. Maybe thats how he'll one-up it, by getting even higher level execs involved. The Only one dat wouldn't do it is Yoshida ... He's just chicken it out ( But he donated the money though ) and ordered his executive officers did it for him instead ....
What a loser!
I was so looking forward of Yoshida IceCubeChallenge. TT__TT.
Now I can't wait to see "Reggie in his body not so ready yet"
LOLOLOLOLOLOL Lol. I bet everyone thought that Ice Climbers were confirmed for Smash Bros. Reggie will take a bath tub full of ice water over his head. REGGIE TROPICAL FREEZE Lol I love stuff like this. Do you believe in fun? Yes, but I don't believe having ice dumped on your self is fun. It seems more torturous than fun. Reggie should be a Boss and take the challenge up a notch ( no pun intended) by doing it in a freezing environment. Then it would actually be a challenge. I used to do this or stuff like this all the time in hot summer days as a kid. Memes and charity. That's why. Reggie will fly to the North Pole and cannon ball into the below ice sea filled with polar bears I hate your avatar, I look at it and want that game but... it is SOOOOO FAR AWAY!!!. lol Can't wait to see this! Hashtag Regginator? Wahoo! Generally speaking you only have 24 hours to Rise to the Challenge. Reggie is already late on that front. Can't wait to see what the master does. I believe it's been around for a little while, but it got very popular when a former college athlete accepted the challenge because it spread to many pro sports. I know that just about every big name in hockey's already done it. Great, keep in mind this request was started because of Notch, the guy who slagged off the Wii U. His Body is Ice Ready!!! Gotta beat this 1 Reggie. Not the first part, the last part. Maybe Reggie has a Mario tattoo somewhere This is exactly why I love Nintendo, their playful attitude, all of their amazing franchises, and of course, Shiggy and Reggie. #Nintendoforlife YES! I was hoping he would do this! Knowing Reggie, he'll probably up the game by switching ice water with liquid nitrogen. nope he'll ask NASA to lend their shuttle so he can get some ice from the moon Europa He's obviously gong to put some frozen 1-up mushrooms in, instead of ice EDIT: I didn't know Zelda Universe put him up to it LOL My teacher did this today, so I'm also looking forward to Reggie doing it (was it within 24 hours?). I'm offended by that pun. There was no reason to change "body" for "bucket." I was only referring to the way some people had brought awareness to the disease as ridiculous, unnecessary, humiliating, and unpleasant. Major nelson looking fly as always
I've seen themed ice cube trays before, wouldn't be surprised if there are Mario themed trays out there. I just thought of something though, what if instead of a bucket of ice water, he rented a dunk-tank and fills it with ice water?
Thats the whole point. Doing something ridiculous like this help it stick in peoples' minds. How is this any different than a dunk-tank booth at a carnival-style fundraiser? Also, the latter two parts of your complaint only make sense for the person doing it, and they can opt out. It just so happens people are choosing both options, so really your complaining about people doing something of their own volition. I don't like dunk-tank booths being used (for their original purposes) for fundraisers either. Not sure if Fils-A Mech would resist this like a boss or it'd explode. I just hope they don't turn it into a crass commercial or self promotion. I'm shocked MS didn't! Reggie really needs to actually do the ice bucket. Wasn't he supposed to do it within 24 hours of his nomination? This could be a disgrace for the company otherwise. what's taking so long?
