Japan’s richest company (pains me to write that on a SEGA focused website) is getting ready to display parts its storied history to the public. According to ARTnews, Nintendo has announced that it plans to convert one of its factories into “Nintendo Gallery”.
Closed since 2016, the Uji Ogura Plant, originally used to make playing and “hanafuda” cards before becoming a site for product repairs, will be transformed into the (tentatively named) Nintendo Gallery. The museum will showcase products made by the company throughout its one-hundred-and-thirty-year history. In addition, Nintendo promises the gallery will also house game experiences, which hopefully means there will be some F-Zero GX arcade machines to play (among other Nintendo stuff, of course).
What would you like to see on display at the Nintendo Gallery? Hopefully Nintendo will dig up some interesting and rare goodies for us to see (and hopefully they haven’t lost the source codes to too many of their games, like SEGA). The museum is slated to open in 2024, in Kyoto, Japan.
