A console known around the world; Nintendo is set to open its first-ever museum in Kyotoโs Uji City in Japan.ย
Opening on October 2, the museum will be housed in a renovated building from 1969, where the gaming giant first created its Japanese and Western style playing cards, and repaired consoles.
Nintendo Museum will feature vintage video games and its first consoles. They can also enjoy the shooting game, witness a giant controller operated by two people, and an exhibit featuring ancient Japanese poems.
Nintendo announced back in 2021 that it was to createย a museum and now fans of the console will be able to revel in a classic yet immersive exhibition.
Nintendo entered theย gamingย market in 1889, with the Japanese โhanafudaโ cards. In 1977, the brand launched its first home video game machines, called TV Game 15 and TV Game 6.ย
The company started retailing its Nintendo Entertainment System console in 1983. Two years later, the Super Mario Bros. games were launched and created the worldwide renown game it is today.
