At EVO 2014, before the singles Top 8 began, Nintendo  released a video in which Fils-Aimé congratulated the remaining players and wished them good luck through the rest of the tournament, thanking the Smash community for its continued support of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games. He also encouraged players to play the upcoming ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4|Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'' games, adding "I might show up to challenge you someday, and if we ever do get to go head to head, please: no [[John]]s." The video was widely praised for showing Nintendo's support of EVO 2014 and the competitive Smash community, unlike at [[EVO 2013]], when Nintendo notoriously attempted to shut down the streaming of the ''Melee'' portion of the event. Fils-Aimé was also praised for using the phrase "no Johns", a term primarily used in the competitive community.

According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], he stated that ''Reggie Fils-Aime'', [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] and [[Satoru Iwata]] were briefly considered to be playable characters in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]], but this was decided against because Sakurai felt that the 3 video game developers would not appeal to a wide audience. He also stated that it takes a lot of work and effort to add a character to the game and it was a decision not to be taken lightly.<ref>http://sourcegaming.info/2016/04/29/duflupdate/</ref>
