  1. ★☻Video Game History ☆ How did these popular video game brands evolve and turn into how they are today?

  2. Main Evolution • From this ~ Atari 2600 To this ~ WiiU

  3. How did Nintendo Start? • First off, I’m NOT trying to show any bias towards Nintendo, I love Microsoft too! • Nintendo started as a playing card company, and made cards for a playing card game, called “Hanafuda”, still played today in Japan. • Nintendo failed, so they went to toys. They made many fun toys for children. Again, they failed, and quick too. • Later they went to video games in the early 80’s for an unknown reason. They are still making video games today. They made some of the most popular game series.
