Nintendo is older than you Think

Nintendo was founded in 1889—making the company over 135 years old.

Long before making video games, Mario, or Game Boys, Nintendo started as a small business in Kyoto, Japan, manufacturing handmade Hanafuda (Japanese playing cards). They went on to run playing card tournaments, operate a taxi company, run a chain of "love hotels," and manufacture plastic toys before eventually transitioning into electronic arcade games and home consoles in the late 1970s.

True First Flight

The first human flight was in France in 1783 in a hot air balloon. This means it predated the American constitution when they were officially recognised as a nation with a government. 

The first human flight occurred at the same time America formed into a nation.

It wasn't a powerd flight like the wright brothers but it was still a flight.

The Americans declared themselves independent in 1776, then around the same time they won the war against the British, two french men flew in a balloon in Paris. This was  just before the American constitution in 1787. 

Charles Manson and The Beach Boys

Brian Wilson's  song never learn not to love by the Beach Boys was created by Charles Manson the Leader of the Manson Family murder cult. 

Before Charles Manson got his followers to go on a killing spree, he met Brian Wilson, a band member of the beach boys and tried to get him to add one of his songs. Eventually he agreed but changed the lyrics and name of the song. The song was originally called cease to exist, the tune was identical but they played it in their own style. 

Fusion Cricket Ball

If you were to throw a cricket ball at 10 million miles per hour (a small fraction of the speed of light) , it would cause the air Infront of it to undergo a nuclear fusion reaction. The ball and the air Infront of it would turn into super heated plasma and detonate as a thermal nuclear explosion. 

The thermal nuclear explosion would vaporise everything in the area including the ball and the person throwing the ball along with the air in the ball's path.

The good thing is no one can ever throw a ball that fast, the energy required to push the ball at that speed would be enormous, perhaps comparable to the output of an entire power station over a short period of time. 

War Of The Worlds Movie Fact

In 'War of the Words' 2005 directed by Steven Spielberg, the grandparents are played by the stars from the original war of the words movie. 

The Grandparents in the 2005 war of the words are played by Gene Berry and Ann Robinson.

They were the main stars of the 1953 version of the movie directed by Byron Haskins. It is hard to tell they were the original stars because they were aged and only appeared for a short time. 

Cartridge Based Arcade Machine

If you were wondering if there was an arcade cabinet that took cartridges: now you know.

The neo geo MVS arcade cabinet could take six neo geo cartridges. They worked differently to to the home console one and had a different shape but the games were the same code and quality. 

Instead of buying a new arcade machine, the Neo- Geo MVS could have new games or versions of the games added as cartridges and the Marquee could also be swapped out so it stayed up to date with the new games.
