    “Nintendo was founded in 1889 making playing cards. Coca-Cola was founded in 1892. Dracula was published in 1897 and was set in the same time. You could have a Dracula adaptation where Dracula drinks a Coke and plays Nintendo and it would be historically accurate.”

    4:25 Sorry to break it to you, but that piece has been in circulation for over a decade now, way before Lego acquired the Nintendo license. It does appear in a lot of sets in the Mario line, but that's because it is such a frequently used piece in every line. I strongly doubt that this piece was used because of it's relation to the Mario line, it is more likely because that is the only real textured brick piece Lego offers and it is a part that is very easy to find large quantities of.

    Another fun fact about Nintendo is that it was also established on the year the Eiffel Tower was built and Clemson University was established on that year as well.

    You really gotta appreciate how Japanese culture promotes preservation of history and honoring the past.
    Something like this would've likely not existed if the Nintendo HQ was in any other country.
