Yeah, this is well known
Where’s the Jack the Ripper game than? I’m waiting.
Yeah they started out as a warehouse store or something i think
And Sony’s first electrical device was a rice cooker. And Toyota used to only weave fabric.
Thanks for circling Nintendo, would have been impossible to figure out otherwise
Technically Jack The Ripper is still on the loose
Pretty cool
Thats the blackpool tower.
/s
They should have made Pokemon cards instead of waiting for the Gameboy game
The anime movie ‘Summer Wars’ is a great shout out to the story of Nintendo – it has as essential plot devices (pun intended) the use of both the 3ds and the traditional KoiKoi/Hanafuda card game. Good movie
Nintendo still asking for full price on those as well.
This is just three random unrelated facts about 1889 with an incredibly stupid picture
Nokia was founded as a pulp mill in 1865 while the US Civil War was fought.

TIL Nintendo is older than the Automobile…
Remember kids. For a short while (being years) nintendo ran love hotels, and rented rooms by the hour.
My favorite “trick” trivia question:
Nintendo released rhe GameBoy on a major anniversary of their founding. Which anniversary?
If I want to give an extra hint I’ll mention it ends in a zero.
With the hint most people will guess 10th or *maybe* 20th. The correct answer is the 100th.
The Y is backward on that plaque, and I want it fixed.
So that’s why their business practices are so backwards they are stuck in the 19th century…
Holy hell, Nintendo invented the Eiffel Tower and also built Jack the Ripper?
Saw the name of Napoleon, thought it was a Napoleon post… not even close!
At one point, Nintendo also existed at the same time as the ottoman empire

fuck I’m old
Technically Mario could be based on Jack the Ripper
When I hear “Jack the Ripper” I think of Raiden at first
It all makes sense now. Wario is Jack the Ripper
r/uselessredcircle
RAIDEN WAS REAL????
This is by far one of the worst “gaming” posts I’ve ever seen
Thank god for the red circle around the word Nintendo or I wouldn’t have been able to decypher this image.
Thank god for that red circle I had no idea what we were talking about
I’m not sure what I’m looking at here in the second picture. Could someone help me out? Like maybe with some kind of graphic to point out what I’m supposed to be focusing on? You see, there are just too many words, and I am very busy, so if someone could just highlight the important ones here, I’d be greatly appreciative.
I like how you say it as if there was a period of time when Jack the Ripper was not loose.
Unless Jack the Ripper died in 1888
Coincidence? I think NOT
Good thing they put that red circle there, I would’ve had no fucking idea where to look otherwise.
Yea Jack the ripper was never found so technically he or she is still on the run
Coincidence? I think not!
No third photo?
Sooooooooo… Jack the Ripper or Eiffel Tower confirmed for next Smash?
Nintendo was founded in a very interesting year.
Nintendo was founded when Brazil was still an Empire, roughly two months before the proclamation of the Brazilian Republic in november 15th and the year Brazil adopted the modern flag (with 21 stars at the time) and the imperial family were forced to exile in Paris. 1889 was also the year of the Meiji Constitution. The Dakota was separated into two Dakotas, Montana and Washington were also about to became states, signed by President Glover. Hitler, António Salazar (spanish dictator) and Charles Chaplin were born in 1889. The first report of the influeza flu in the 1889 – 1890 pandemic, also know as Russian Flu or Asian Flu. The year Van Gogh painted Starry Night and the invention of the Margherita (pizza) by Raffaele Esposito.
It’s crazy that they’ve been building the Eiffel Tower this whole time.
Samsung started out as a trading company that sold dried fish, grocery and noodles.
Jack the Ripper would have been caught if he had bought some pirated Nintendo cards in the back allies of White Chapel
Hitler was also born that year
I always just assumed Jack the Ripper was earlier in history. Interesting, I learned something new today.
