8 things that Nintendo is surprisingly older than

Nintendo is one of the most influential societies for video games ever and has been for many years. In the minds of most people came the company at the age of 80 and started doing some of the best games of that time. Yet, Nintendo, as a society, was in fact much longer. In fact, they existed since 1889.

At that time, the company developed Japanese playing cards before it later moved to toys, games and finally video games. So the company had a long ride before it became a powerhouse like today. During this time there were many other remarkable events or inventions. Some of them are really surprising how you would guess they would be older than Nintendo.

First video game

1958

Tennis for two is generally accepted as the first video game ever made. It was created by William Higinbotham in 1958, long before Nintendo got into the video game. As a company, however, Nintendo has existed for a long time.

These days, Nintendo is publishing a lot of its own sports games, usually including Mario and his friends. But it all started, with Higinbotham's simple tennis game.

World War I

1914

Of course, the First World War is one of the most important events ever. Most of the world, as we know, would differ if it was not for this conflict that began in 1914.

So, Nintendo had existed for many years. For many people, it probably feels weird because it's hard to imagine the world before World War II, you don't mind the one that includes Nintendo. This means that while Nintendo was around, society was still relatively small at the time the First World War began.

Stop sign

1915

Nintendo does not give up cars because it was already on the road on the road when the company was founded. However, these roads were not absolutely safe because there were no stopwatch because they did not exist yet.

Stop brands debuted until 1915, when they were used in Detroit in Michigan. These days they are used regularly in different countries, including all over the United States, because it was not just Detroit, which required further road safety.

Zippers

Around 1890

It is strange to think about time than there are zippers because they are so common on jackets and pants these days that it looks as if they were forever. Of course, this is not true.

The idea of ​​the zipper seemed before Nintendo, but the real product did not appear until 1890. It took many years and various suggestions to end up with the zippers we have today. So they were not immediately a significant thing like Nintendo.

Disney

1923

While Nintendo and Disney usually work in different media-it has been said, there are plenty of Disney games out-to-poks are similar in that they are long-term entertainment companies. Disney, however, is not as long as Nintendo. Walt Disney was founded in 1923.

At that time it was simply an animation studio, but since then it has grown to Mega Entertainment Corporation, which has done everything from movies to entertainment parks. It also shows any signs of slowing and will probably survive us all.

World Cup

1930

The FIFA World Cup is one of the most famous sports events in the world. It is a place where a lot of international football teams are facing in the monthly tournament.

Not only is it more famous than most sports events, but it was also longer than most others. In fact, it looks as if it was forever. Yet the first iteration of the competition took place in 1930 and was won by Uruguay.

Washington becomes a state

1889

While Nintendo is a Japanese company, it still has a headquarters in America. Located in Redmond in Washington. However, Nintendo was originally created before Washington actually became a state.

He received this honor in November 1889, two months after the foundation of Nintendo. Thus, there was no huge difference between the two historical moments, but the fact that Nintendo was wild before the current capital of America was even.

Sliced ​​bread

1920

If the famous idioms are accurate, then the sliced ​​bread is the highlight of human success. After all, people say the phrase “the best thing from sliced ​​bread” for many years. When people say it, they don't follow Nintendo, because the sliced ​​bread was a newer creature.

This was originally released in the 1920s. Bread, in general, of course, was, of course, for many, many years, but then you had to cut it.
