The wrath of Reggie: a darkly comic Nintendo Direct edit

Nearly every site I browse has been posting this video and with good reason! I've spent the whole evening rewatching this and laughing my head off. Have a look:

Nooooooo! Bill! This all started out as harmless banter in the Nintendo Direct videos and I didn't even pick up on it. Not until now anyway, when someone made the whole thing sound really sinister from 40 seconds onwards. The added effects of dramatic movie music and the slow zooming camera literally gives you images of cement shoes! Immediately followed by a darkly absurd "rip in peace bill", all it can do is make you laugh!

This is right up there with that "Bill Clinton trying to kill Santa" joke. Editing sure is powerful stuff!
