Nintendo continued to innovate throughout the 1990s with the launch of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) and the Nintendo 64. These consoles introduced groundbreaking technologies and beloved franchises, including "Pokémon," which became a cultural phenomenon. The Pokémon franchise, alongside other successful titles like "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time," cemented Nintendo’s status as a cornerstone of the gaming industry. The company’s ability to create engaging gameplay experiences and memorable characters ensured its continued success.
The 2000s saw Nintendo diversifying its offerings with the introduction of the GameCube, a console known for its compact design and powerful performance.

NINTENDO PLAY IT PROUD
Fusajiro Yamauchi was born on November 22, 1859. When the Japanese government lifted a ban on a card game known as Hanafuda, Fusajiro capitalized on this by establishing Nintendo Koppai , a company that would print Hanafuda cards. Whereas most card games featured numbers, Hanafuda was devoid of numerical symbols and instead had unique artwork. Hanafuda was introduced to Japan though wasn't too popular, and was generally thought to disappear as quickly as it arrived. Fusajiro Yamauchi, however, derived an idea to increase the game's popularity by developing cards with hand drawn illustrations. Fusajiro eventually retired in 1929 and deemed his son-in-law Sekiryo Kaneda his successor. In January 1940, Fusajiro passed away as a result of a stroke. FOUND ER Fusajiro Yamauchi
