The Evolution of Computers

    Computers or better known as devices that helped aid computation have been used for thousands of years, mostly using one-to-one correspondence. One-to-one correspondence meaning a set paired with another set where each element in one of the sets is paired with exactly one element from the other set. These computers came to be known as counting devices. These devices were really only used to help you count and keep records and not much more. The earliest counting device dated back to the Upper Palaeolithic or the Old Stone Age.

Super Mario 35th Anniversary!

Back in September, Nintendo released a direct based around the 35th anniversary of Super Mario. This was similar to 10 years ago when Nintendo celebrated the 25th anniversary of Super Mario. I was 9 years old and my older brother got the Mario 25th anniversary dsi xl. And now 10 years later, another big milestone for Nintendo and their biggest game franchise, Super Mario.

Why I liked the Legend of Korra:

A lot of people my age or around my age watched many awesome and memorable cartoons as a kid. One of those shows being Avatar: The Last Airbender. I also watched this show as a kid and it was a pretty good show. I wasn’t an insane fan of the show, but for what it was worth, I thought it was a pretty good show. Flash forward a few years when the show was taken off of Netflix. I didn’t really think about the show much after that until a live-action movie was released. M Night Shyamalan who was the director of that movie did everything wrong.

Hudson Soft. and the Nintendo Japanese pc games

In the summer of 1983, in Japan, the Nintendo Family Computer known to many as the Famicom, was at the top when it came to the video game market and the most popular game was Super Mario Bros. It was no surprise, the Japanese market loved video games and Nintendo was a big name in gaming. As Atari took over the North American video games market, Nintendo reigned supreme in Japan.

The Nintendo Switch is NOT USB-C PD compliant, what does this mean?

The Nintendo Switch was released to the market on March 3, 2017, for $299.99. The Switch finally did what the Wii U failed to do, Be both a home console and a portable handheld device. It was Wii U haters and handheld fanboy's biggest dream come true. When the cries and the cheers of the Switch finally died down, problems started to arise. Many owners of the Switch wanted a second dock to have in a different room or to bring with them when they left their house.

How the Nintendo Entertainment System was created

It all started when Nintendo released the Family Computer on July 15, 1983. Most people called the console by its nickname, the Famicom. It was a small rectangular console with a white body and red accents. It had two rectangular red, gold, and black controllers wired directly into the system with controller slots on both sides of the console. The system retailed for 7,980 Japanese yen or the equivalent to about $60 in U.S. money. Then in 1983, the U.S. video game market faced a problem. So many video games and video game consoles were getting released to the market. Some of them were good, but the majority of them were not at all quality. This caused the North American video game crash of 1983. Leading up to the crash, video games had become a big deal with Atari bringing video games to the home market.

Why the Wii U was a necessary stop-gap between the Wii and the Switch

The Nintendo Wii was released on November 19, 2006, and it retailed for $249.99. At the hight of the Wii's popularity, it was known for its amazing motion controls, fun party games, family-friendly atmosphere, and the Miis. Over the Wii's life, it sold 101.63 million units worldwide. The Wii was finally discontinued on October 20, 2013. On November 18, 2012, the Wii U was released to the market with a mixed reception. Some people liked it and others didn't. This happened because of confusion. Some people thought that Wii U was supposed to be an add on to the already existing Wii and others thought it Was a portable Wii handheld.

A Brief History of Super Mario Maker

The first time I saw Super Mario Maker was on the Nintendo Wii U. I didn't own a Wii U, but I kept up with the Wii U news because I was thinking of buying one. I ultimately didn't buy one because of how poorly it was received and I still don't have one to this day. The Wii U failed because of two main reasons, People either thought it was going to be an add on to the Wii or they thought it was going to be a portable handheld version of the Wii. These both made sense because Nintendo was a creative company and always had interesting add ons to their consoles including ROB the robot, the Game Boy Player, and the lesser-known 64 disk drive.
