Debunked IMPORTANT: Nintendo didn't exist when the story of Castlevania 64 took place

[Guaraná]

This was a question I actually had for months in my life, so today I decided to look into it and discovered that the story of the game takes place in 1852 and as everyone here probably knows, Nintendo was founded in 1889, almost 4 decades later.

So, in case anyone else was in doubt, here's the information.

Nintendo the company might not have been around but John Nintendo, the founder of said of company, was alive.

We have a debunked tag?

 

[Mr_No_U]

well that's because back then it was called Bintendo

there's no record of this because no one cared

 

[Weiss]

Huge if true.

I don’t know what’s confusing me more: the use of the debunked tag here, the tag’s existence at all, or this thread’s existence in the first place.

After extensive research (one wiki page), I can confirm that Nintendo does not exist during any Castlevania game except for Bloodlines and Portrait of Ruin. Aria of Sorrow and Dawn of Sorrow are still up in the air.

There is a small chance Order of Ecclesia is also post-Nintendo, since it is not specified when in the 1800's it takes place, but since Dracula was considered canon to the series by that point for some reason, that would put those stories almost back to back. Which makes no sense, but not much less sense than the book being part of the Castlevania timeline at all, I suppose.

Ok this is important.
Why there's no threadmark option in this forum?

You're drinking too much guaraná

 

[Earthbounder]

Now everything makes sense.

Of course I am, there's a bar called Belmont 1min from my house

 

[Djehuty]

okay, but what about the rest?

 

[Octavian]

Hitler was also born that same year (1889). Coincidence?!?!

 

[Famicrono]

No but the red colors of the hanaduda cards comes from the blood of Dracula’s victims

 

[Brock Reiher]

that explains why they didn't call it Castlevania 64

It's funny how you can't take a picture of Farme de Amoedo without gay people being on it. Great spot.
