NINTENDO & SEGA’S strange ties to the YAKUZA

Everyone knows these two titans of the gaming industry, but few know about their ties to Japan’s underworld. Yes, indeed! Good ol’ innocent Nintendo shared some connections to the Yakuza in the past, and so did SEGA. In this video, we take a look at the history of Nintendo, what criminals had to do with it, and how SEGA might have done some really messed up stuff in the not-so-distant past!

This channel is not meant to glorify any political ideologies, it is merely a showcase of historic facts. I ask everyone in the comments to remain civil and respect others opinions and background.

Constructive criticism is not only allowed, but welcome! ☺️
