The new Nintendo Museum has a display dedicated to "before we made games," featuring exhibits like 'Nintendo Baby Stroller' and 'Nintendo Gun'

Nintendo is opening a big ol' museum dedicated to its 134-year history, and many people are learning that part of that history involves making a baby stroller and guns.

To celebrate and announce that the Nintendo Museum is opening its doors on October 2 in Japan, the House of Mario has held a special event hosted by Shigeru Miyamoto. Various displays reveal how things have changed over time, from Mario and Zelda's presentation to the technology fueling everything from the NES to the Nintendo Switch.

What's catching plenty of eyes, though, is one wall that pokes at Nintendo's history outside of games. Founded back in 1889 as Nintendo Koppai, the company initially focused on making handmade hanafuda playing cards. The idea of play was always central to Nintendo then, though that doesn't mean the company didn't experiment.  Meet the Nintendo Mamaberica baby stroller, which was apparently released in the 1970s and is now in the Nintendo Museum. Mind you, I think folk are more occupied with what's nearby.

An NES Zapper it does not appear to be. As you with the rest of the stream, the fun didn't end there either.

As for more of what the museum actually has, you've got several interactive set-ups to encourage play, a shop, and a cafe. What isn't on display, though, is the Nintendo Switch successor, though Nintendo did warn us about that. You can check out the full stream below.

Nintendo delivers the saddest news I've heard since Animal Crossing's updates ceased - the long-awaited Fantasy Life sequel was delayed again.
