Nintendo
Nintendo Co., Ltd. (Japanese: 任天堂株式会社 Nintendō Kabushiki gaisha) is a multinational company from Kyoto, Japan, which was founded in 1889 and started off with producing playing cards. During the latter half of the 20th century it started getting more and more involved in the video game industry. In 1977, five years before the birth of Christian Weston Chandler, Nintendo brought out its first gaming console.[1] It is now one of three chief competitors on this market, along with Microsoft and Sony.
Nintendo and Chris
Chris currently owns several Nintendo consoles, as well as a shitload of games for them. For a time being (before the PS3 came along), Animal Crossing was the biggest game in his life and he made the hour-long Animal Crossing Documentary in which he would tell Nintendo about his many personal problems and how much he hated the Sony PlayStation; it still remains his longest video to date.
Along with Sonic the Hedgehog, Pokémon was his "inspiration" for creating Sonichu and the other Electric Hedgehog Pokémon; this was actually positively covered by Nintendo Power Magazine.
During the early epic Miyamoto Saga in 2008-2009, Chris was trolled by Clyde Cash impersonating various Nintendo officials, including Shigeru Miyamoto, Takashi Tezuka, Reggie Fils-Aimé and the Nintendo lawyer Jay Z.
In 2010, Nintendo's Flipnote Hatena service became a major part in Chris's ongoing Love Quest. In 2011, Chris felt betrayed by his favorite company for not porting the Flipnote software quick enough.
In several videos released in 2011, a Giant Mii AR Card [1] is visible on Chris's wall. This particular item is only available to Club Nintendo members, for the price of 300 coins.
On December 2013, a user on /v/ (a video game image board on 4chan) discovered Chris's Miiverse account and posted pictures of some of his posts. This means Chris has spent your money on a Wii U.
In the comic
In Sonichu #5, Chris uses a DS to connect to Wi-Fi, to search CWCville for villains.
Wiimote of fail
The Wii Remote of Fail is the result of Chris taking it upon himself to paint custom Sonichu colors on his Wii Remote and Nunchuk during an autistic epiphany. He thought that "Mr. Mayamoto-san" of Nintendo would like to see these, so he then showed them off to the world in his YouTube video CWC to Mr. Miyamoto.
It made a cameo appearance as a go-kart in ModNation Racers. First as a pre-made casket car that Chris simply called a Wiimote, he would then recolor it with his own personal touch just like so many other things.
