Hi, I'm a playing card researcher and the author of the TechRadar article in question. The comments section here is kind of "meh, 3 years difference, OK..." and yeah, I understand, that's a neat little piece of trivia at most, sure. But if you actually click through and read the TechRadar article and look at the evidence presented, I think you'll agree it's highly likely Nintendo was really founded back in the days of the shogunate, i.e. in the Edo period, which IS kind of big news.
