Nintendo: A History
I've know for quite a while, but I was reminded again when I saw it on Wikipedia. Ya. Nintendo made Flower Cards before video games. PRETTY AWSOME, HUH?
After the gaming era, Nintendo started to release Flower Cards with Mario characters on them as well.

You can also see othe historical facts about Nintendo in that link.

I had to do an informative speech and I picked Nintendo's history as my subject.

I had to cut out about half of the useless information to fit the time constraint, but I kept the bit about *****houses, and everybody loved it

Me too.

I did this when the Revolution was announced, so in the end of the presentation, I showed them the X360, the PS3 and then a video of Nintendo ON!. Everyone was like OMG WTF! NINTENDO ROCKS!
