With Runbow now available in both North America and Europe, Nintendo of America has posted an amusing video on its YouTube channel revealing Reggie’s addiction to the recently released Wii U eShop title.
The clip, which can be viewed below, lasts a minute and a half and also features Nintendo of America’s Damon Baker, Senior Marketing Manager of Publisher and Developer Relations.
On a much less brighter note, Runbow has been delayed for Australia and New Zealand due to local classification troubles. 13AM Games is aiming for a release in this region next week.
Let us know in the comments what you think of this video and how your Runbow experience has been so far.

Yeah, his body is ready. (sorry, couldn't resist)
It's always amusing to see that senior staff in a large company can also have fun and have a sense of humour. It's starting to feel like I'm the only one who's not crazy for Runbow.
dang it StephenYap3, you beat me to it....
Was he having a seizure?
Runbow is great... Personally not being great at platformer some of the adventure levels have trolled me though! However, while I haven't got to play it locally, the online was a great frenetic experience. I do worry for the servers in future mind.
It's been a while since we've seen Reggie! Good to see him!
@crimsontadpoles I'm with you. It looks alright and interesting, but I am not that interested and never expected it to be a game that becomes that hyped at all.
Slick moves, son
It's nice to see Reggie out and about again after the tragic passing of Iwata-San..
It was my son who had been crazy about this since the nindies demo, and yesterday it was his birthday so he looked forward all day to getting home from school and playing it... I haven't had as much fun in a long time. The game is hilarious and being able to unlock loads of other indie characters like Shovelknight and Rusty is a great bonus. Any fence sitters out there, I would 100% recommend it. I enjoyed the demo, but there is so much more in the full package.
...oh, the nine players work fantastic in local multiplayer. I will be disappointed if Nintendo cant match or top it in the next Smash Bros.
Need more Reggie-promotion videos. Now!
Nintendo are getting really good really nice and cosy with indies lately, aren't they?
Then again, they have to I guess, since that's all the 3rd party stuff they got, apart from the odd Skylanders port.
Can't blame em, Runbow really is a solid game. MUCH better than I thought it would be. Sometimes games are more than the sum of their parts- Runbow is a good example of this.
This is great advertisement for the game, Nindies are surely getting a nice treatment from Nintendo.
To be fair I'm avoiding Runbow, the preview made me totally uninterested in it, but with all the attention and love is getting, they are making me feel like I should buy it anyway >.>;
Haha, that made my day. It's good to see Reggie having fun again.
this game can be a party King
So Reggie actually knows how to play this one? Lol
We already know Reggie is an idiot so what he likes doesn't matter to me.
@ikki5 agreed.
I guess it's time for me to step up and make a gif of the "Reggie-lution" bit.
He's not an idiot, but he's obviously very much focused on the P.R. and marketing side of things. Wasn't he the marketing head for Pizza Hut or something.
I believe Shu and Spencer actually do play games outside of their respective consoles, Reggie only plays a game when it's in the best interest of the company.
It doesn't matter how ready your body is. Nobody beats Reegie (except for Iwata 😢)
reg-gie reg-gie reg-gie reg-gie...
Game is great whether Reggie likes it or not. Nice to see NOA pushing it because it deserves the advertising.
@sub12
"but he's obviously very much focused on the P.R. and marketing side of things. "
Then he is doing a horrible job.
I laughed so hard when I saw this. Actually made me take another look at Runbow.
Oh, Reggie, you wonderful man. Surely that's all that needs to be said?
Reggie's provided a lot of laughs, mostly unintentional. As memetastic as he is, I don't think Reggie is much of a gamer.
That dance made my day
So wonderfully ridiculous
@BakaKnight All they need are some first party character additions for me (Mario, Peach, DK, Bowser). But I'll probably pick it up sooner than later.
@MetaSmasher Reggie's got da moves!
GOTTA LOVE THE REGGIE WOO HOO
I am still awaiting my Hue amiibo and Mario and Peach outfits, Nintendo...
HE IS ABOUT KICKING ASS !
@radbot42 Like ravi at E3?
Reggie is a gamer. Not the type who kicks a** in smash bros. Or anything like that. But the one who spends the whole flight playing Zelda on the 3DS type.
Lol, I see another future Meme: Reggie doing the chicken-dance!
