On This Day in Nintendo History: Black Jack; Super Smash Bros. amiibo

On this day (February 15) in Nintendo history...

  • Black Jack was released in 1985 for the Game & Watch Multi Screen in Japan. In this tabletop game, developed by Nintendo R&D1, place a bet on your hand of cards totalling twenty-one or closest without going over. Ace cards can be worth one or eleven, and face cards (Jack, Queen, King) are worth ten. Between rounds you can Hit (take another card) or Stand (play the hand you have). The strongest hand, or "Blackjack" is a ten card and an Ace. You can bet up to $100 per hand, in increments of $1 or $10.

  • A nineteenth wave of Super Smash Bros. amiibo Figures was released in 2019 worldwide and included Piranha Plant; King K. Rool and Ice Climbers.

What are you favourite memories of these games? How do you think they hold up today? Hash it out in the comments.
