Crackle has released the trailer for their upcoming 5-part documentary series on the history of Nintendo titled Playing With Power: The Nintendo Story, which will be premiering for free on its streaming platform March 1st.
The series is directed by Jeremy Snead and is executive produced and narrated by Sean Astin.
Playing With Power: The Nintendo Story peels back the curtain on the famously-secretive Japanese company that would eventually take the global videogame industry by storm. Discover the humble beginnings of a gaming business that began many decades before the invention of television, and ride along the bumpy road of hits, misses, and wild ideas that turned Nintendo from a local playing card maker into a worldwide household name. Narrated by Sean Astin, the electrifying story is presented by an ensemble of Nintendo personnel, celebrity icons, and industry veterans including Wil Wheaton, Alison Haislip, former Nintendo CEO Reggie Fils-Aimé, and head of Xbox Phil Spencer.
