Founded in 1889, Nintendo started out as a small playing card company in Japan. Though the cards sold well, Nintendo really became popular when it began creating toys in the 1960s, and then became internationally renowned after developing video games and consoles in the 1970s and '80s. After introducing the world to some of the best-known and top-selling video game franchises of all-time, such as Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Animal Crossing, and Pokémon, it's clear to see why Nintendo is beloved by parents as a company that creates nonviolet, family-friendly entertainment for kids.
With fun black-and-white illustrations and an engaging 16-page photo insert, readers will be excited to read this latest additon to Who HQ!

If your child loves Nintendo this is a must have book! It is not too long and it comes with photos and many interesting facts. It gives a great overview and history of the birth of the Nintendo Empire.
Great series of books for young readers
My child has read many other books from this author/collection and seems to always enjoy them. The books keep his interest and are easy enough for him to read independently.
