Drawing on original interviews, news reports and other documents, this book traces Nintendo's rise from a small business that made playing cards to the top name in the arcade industry. Twenty-eight game titles are examined in-depth, along with the people and events that defined the company for more than four decades."--cProvided by publisher. 0aDonkey Kong (Game) 0aNintendo video gamesxHistory.1 aMcFerran, Damien,eauthor of introduction, etc.
