The quote currently used on the article contains a swear word. While swearing is allowed on the Wiki (as long as it isn't in excess), I believe that having it on an important page such as this that could easily have younger viewers is probably a bad idea. As such, I suggest changing it to "Over the years, I know you've heard a lot of Nintendo people say, "we're all about the games". Well, guess what? We are. Whether you're talking about Donkey Kong or Tetris, Madden or Mario, Metal Gear or Resident Evil, he with the best games wins. Always been that way, always will.". This is a nice quote for Reggie as well, and doesn't swear. [[User:Peanutjon|Peanutjon]] ([[User talk:Peanutjon|talk]]) 22:41, 27 June 2014 (EDT)

I apologize for the inconvenience. Issues are preventing me from copying the content from my test page and making it into an article. Therefore, I need someone who can edit user pages and sub-pages to do this for me. Thanks in advance. Mario4Ever (talk) 20:45, 20 June 2011 (EDT)

What exactly do you need help with? Seems like the article turned out fine. Even if you can't edit the user pages, you still should be able to view and copy coding.--Knife (talk) 21:12, 20 June 2011 (EDT)

Quote Change[edit]

The quote currently used on the article contains a swear word. While swearing is allowed on the Wiki (as long as it isn't in excess), I believe that having it on an important page such as this that could easily have younger viewers is probably a bad idea. As such, I suggest changing it to "Over the years, I know you've heard a lot of Nintendo people say, "we're all about the games". Well, guess what? We are. Whether you're talking about Donkey Kong or Tetris, Madden or Mario, Metal Gear or Resident Evil, he with the best games wins. Always been that way, always will.". This is a nice quote for Reggie as well, and doesn't swear. Peanutjon (talk) 22:41, 27 June 2014 (EDT)

No, the quote's what's reasonable: any request to censor the wiki being styled as "reasonable" is what's laughable. The official wiki policy is: "articles occasionally discuss content that some users find disagreeable, such as [...] the use of profanity in quotes. Under no circumstances will users be allowed to remove or otherwise suppress material of this nature [...] If you can't handle certain subject matter being professionally addressed on the wiki, that's your problem, not ours."

Reggie Fils-Aimé - Worst item in Mario Kart[edit]

Can we add in the Trivia section that Reggie considers Blooper as the most worst item of the Mario Kart series? (http://www.eonline.com/news/773580/nintendo-boss-finally-confirms-the-absolute-worst-item-in-mario-kart) --LudwigVon Sig.png(TALK) 21:11, 2 July 2016 (EDT)

It's pretty relevant, so why not? Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 23:30, 2 July 2016 (EDT)

Quote's relation to the Mario series[edit]

Bob Hoskin's quote on his page represents his horrible experience working on the Mario film while Reggie's quote seems to be a goofy, unrelated line to the Mario franchise.--Wikiboy10 (talk) 14:10, July 14, 2020 (EDT)
