Meaning of the Nintendo name and early demand

Nintendo is one of the most legendary video game companies in the world.

Many of you have probably owned a Nintendo system to play video games. If you are old enough, you might have even played some of their games in a video arcade. 

Even if you have never played a video game, through cultural osmosis, you are probably still aware of many of its popular characters, like Mario and Donkey Kong.

Learn about the history of Nintendo and how a 19th-century company wound up making video games on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
