Sketch of Nintendo s new Nintendo Gallery
Nintendo
When you have a long history, it is always good to look back and reflect on what made today possible.In the gaming space, no one can claim to have a more colourful history than Nintendo, and it appears the company is once again looking to celebrate that.
In a new announcement, the Japanese gaming giant has announced it will be opening a new Nintendo Gallery museum.
The Nintendo Gallery will showcase all of its product development history. Nintendo will also take the opportunity to share its philosophy on product design, according to President Shuntaro Furukawa.
A historic venue for a historical facility.
With Nintendo’s longevity in the video game business alone, it’s easy to forget that the company not only predates gaming, but household electricity in most parts of the world, having been established in 1889 as a playing card company.
It would be quite a while before the advent of home consoles, so instead the company steadily grew in the analog game market.
In 1969 they built a factory in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture and even after the Famicom/NES made it to market the Uji Factory continued to serve in the production of hanafuda cards while also handing game console repairs on the side.
