About this listen

Discover the odd and interesting history of Nintendo. Learn how Jumpman became Mario and why he went from being a carpenter to a plumber. Another iconic Nintendo character is Link from the Legend of Zelda whose design was inspired by Peter Pan. Interestingly, both Mario and Zelda were developed by Shigeru Miyamoto, who didn't start off as a video game developer. He initially started working for Nintendo designing graphics and cabinets but after a major flop with the game Radar Scope, Nintendo needed a new hit game and Miyamoto rose to the challenge.
