A few Facts on Nintendo From The 1950's

Nintendo

Before Nintendo became the huge games company it is today it had the less popular job of printing playing cards.

Now as you can probably imagine this is not as lucrative as some might believe, so in the 1950's the CEO of Nintendo, Hiroshi Yamauchi, decided that he wanted to take his company to bigger heights.

But before you think that is when they started creating games, well they didn't.

Before Nintendo started in the gaming business they tried a few other ventures first, they made a cab company, created their own instant rice brand and most shockingly created a chain of sex hotels.

Nowadays while they do not own a chain of sex hotels you will find that in Japan nearly all sex hotels include a wii in the rooms that customers pay for by the hour as a tribute to Nintendo's past.
