Nintendo's world

Nintendo Company Limited is a multinational Japanese market of video games and electronics consumer industry, based in Kyoto, Japan.It was founded on 23, September 1889 by FusajiroYamauchi, as a manufacturer of Japanese cards and refounded in 1963 by his great-grandson Hiroshi Yamauchi,changing both its name to start a taxi company and the administration of lovehotels,things changed when he noticed that the video game market was a better option.

The first videogame made ​​by Nintendo was an arcade in 1978 called Computer Othello, a long list of similar games appeared in the following years, the most famous was Radar Scope and Donkey Kong.

Late 70’s, after the proliferation of home computers, industry the game went into a major crisis, since players prefer hack or buy the games that were in the recreation area, instead of spending money on them. The solution to the problem was the creation, by firms, of their own home consoles or develop software for them. The most famous of nintendo are:

• NES
• SNES
• Virtual Boy
• N64
• GameCube
• Wii
• Wii U

When the popularity of the games reached extremely high levels, took the opportunity to present the famous Game Boy in 1989.This console would eliminate all its competitors, even being far less powerful than his rivals and lacking color. Nintendo went on to sell 60 million of these consoles. After the handheld console, have been improving up to the current 3DS.

I've been trying some of the nintendo consoles and think that they are one of the best options if you want a good entertainment.

SILVER MEDAL, GOLDEN STORY

Along our lifes, a lot of many different things, experiences and situations happen to us; some of them are good ,some of them aren´t. But they have something in common. They teach us how to adapt our life in a different way, or change our daily life.

From my own point of view, a good way to get over a problem is to think about new challenges, trying to test ourself, to know what we are able to do. A challange can be a lot of things, for example learning things that we could not do previusly.

How many times we want to do something but we can not do it because of physical conditions or anothers problems?

There are a lot of people over the world that are in this situation. What is the solution? Very simple:

The people use to say that the real force is in the mind, and, I think that they're right.

“If you want, you can”, this is an universal truth.

This is the story of Daniel Molina, a spanish athlete that has an incredible life “thanks” to one of the moments that we were talking about before. When I saw the video, a lot of sensations crossed my body, I experimented an emotion of happiness and superation.

The art in XVIII

The style that predominated was the "Rococó".
This style had its origin in France and after, it expanded in Europe.
Its aesthetic reflected the elegance of the bourgeoisie and aristocracy,this style decorated a lot of palaces.

We can find differents parts:
"Ornamentación and intimismo"
The architecture "rococó" followed the esthetic models of the style Baroque.
The principal subject  was the decoration in the interiors with a profuse ornamentation with curves lines and  the asymmetry.

The sculpture , stood up because of the discovery of the  technique porcelain imported from Orient .This new technique was ideal for the interiors.

The aristocratic painting:
The painting reflected also in the elegance (Buggery and aristocracy). The cheerful colours were changed by other duller colours, gray,light green ... to represent the gallant places.
The use of the colours helped to create a new technique: the pastel.
The subject was different , it depended of the country. In France , the love subjects and the aristocratic celebrations.We can find some artists: J.A. Watteau,François Boucher and J.H. Fragonard.
In Italy, the artists painted urban landscapes(Canaletto) and the theatrical decoration (Tiépolo). 
In England, the countryside  and the portrait of the elegance(Gainsborough,Hogarth and Reynolds)

THE ART IN SPAIN.

In the XVIII century, the "Rococó" style , we found it in the interiors of the aristocratic palaces , it followed the french taste and the oriental motives.
The decoration instead of continuing the same way of the rest of Europe, they didn´t substitute the polychrome wood and the religious subjects, in figures and also in the scenes of Holy Week , a good example Salzillo and the masterpieces of Tomé.

 Spanish painting ,"rococó" reflected also the privileged people . (Paret and Alcázar).
