The History of Nintendo

[lilbud]

Found this video on Youtube, it would make a great splashscreen if it wasn't 2 minutes long.

Someone could probably edit that to be a quick 15-20 seconds. Unfortunately it's just Nintendo, would be nice if Sega and Sony were in there too.

Can you imagine how long that would be if they did it for every system retropie emulates? My goodness. I really like the style of that video though

What's funny is that when you consider Nintendo was established in 1889, you could argue that the video runs quite a bit short by omitting 88 years of the company's history in favor of the 40 years that most people are familiar with.

Holy crappers, I did not realise the Wii is over a decade old. I don't use it as often as I should, but it's still sitting there, plugged in under my TV just waiting for me to turn on Mario Kart.

@mattrixk Another thing I realized, Pokemon Diamond and Pearl is also 10 years old. I got a Wii in 2008, it also sits under my tv. But I backed up all of my games on a hard drive.

Maybe only count the classic consoles from the Atari 2600 to the PSX N64 Saturn GBA and Wonderswan
