Nintendo is 121 years young today

Nintendo, huh? OLD. Today the venerable gaming company, which has defined so many gamers’ lives—not to mention an entire industry—turned 121 years old.

Happy birthday, Nintendo!

"Back in the late 1800s, Nintendo was a car company."
Misleading typo is misleading.
If only Nintendo did make cars. My trips to and from work would be so much more fun
Finally Nintendo is old enough to legally drink in the US!
@Mohan For the 100th time! XD
As long as they keep making awesome products, they'll be around for a lot longer.
Fixed! Thanks. Although, later in their history, they did make taxis. So, the typo was not entirely incorrect, just early.
Happy 11^2 birthday!
Strangely right after my birthday. And I believe Nintendo made love hotels too.
And to think; when NES was released, Nintendo was a spry 96 years old.
