That's Right Nintendo is gonna be officially 125 Years old this September!

in case you don't know here's a brief history.

Nintendo = was Originally founded on September 22nd 1889 and they originally made Hanafuda Cards.
Which were used in a variety of Gambling/Competitive card games. Hanafuda means Flower Card cause that's what is printed on the cards. Different flowers. One popular game used with Hanafuda Cards is Koi-Koi. One of their weirdest ventures throughout 1956-1974 was Nintendo was in other business, They had their own Taxi service, Love Hotel (kinky l3), A TV Network & even a Food Company (Selling instant Rice) Then in the 60's they made toys, The Love Tester (which supossidly measure a couple's "Love" fo reach other), and the Ultra Hand which is a extend grabber (Funny enough they reference this Toy in their games sometimes) But sometime during the the late 70's and early 80's Nintendo made their First Arcade game called Donkey Kong which was a huysge success, then they make a handheld game series called Game & Watch which were a series of Handheld LCD Games that gain popularity due to their quick to play nature. Then in 1983 Nintendo Released the Famicom with their most popular game, Super Mario Bros. Then ther NES came in 1985 and we all know what happens afterwards. Popular Console slike the SNES, Gameboy, N64, ect. Not to mention great series were born like the Legend of Zelda,Pokemon,Kirby, and ect.

hard to believe Nintendo has been around for a looooooooooooooong time but They're still going strong to this day!
