Reginald "Reggie" Fils-Aime (born March, 1961) is the current president and COO of Nintendo of America.

As Fils-Aime continued Nintendo's presentation, he spoke with great enthusiasm about what Nintendo had to offer in the coming year, with Project Revolution, Nintendo's then-upcoming next-gen console only two years away, fans were enthusiastic about Nintendo's return to glory. With the Nintendo 64 and Nintendo GameCube falling behind rivals Sony and Microsoft in sales, many fans were glad to hear Fils-Aime's introduction, with the internet soon dubbing his arrival at Nintendo as the "Reggielution".
In mid 2006, Fils-Aime was promoted from Vice President of Sales and Marketing to his current position as President and COO of Nintendo of America, replacing Tatsumi Kimishima, who moved up to the position of CEO of Nintendo of America. In this position, Fils-Aime oversaw the Sales and Marketing division of Nintendo through the release of the Wii at the end of the year, and was responsible as the company entered the next generation of gaming.
