Or medical treatment in a hospital. Or signing up for military service and using one of their vehicles.

Yeah I'm fine with Xiaomi having ads on their phones. When I owned one I honestly rarely ever saw them.
I'd also like an industrial drone for dispersing pesticides and liquid based fertilizers.
Yamaha: Would you like it to match your motorcycle?
That's a rhetorical question, right?

For real though, anyone know how that came to be?
Branching- Pepsi made phones, Nintendo had love hotels and taxi services, Chinese companies make many stuff etc
Nintendo? Love Hotels? I think I missed a few chapters here.
It’s been a bit so I may botch some of the details, but back when they were just a playing card company, the youngish CEO went to the US and toured the offices of whoever the biggest playing card manufacturer was at that time. He noticed their offices weren’t that impressive and thought, “If we remain as a playing card company, this is our ceiling.” So he started branching out into a ton of weird unrelated businesses and video games happened to stick.
So basically thank Hoyle or whoever for having a shitty headquarters or we wouldn’t have Tears of the Kingdom.
Or Playstation -> it was made out of spite after all
You know the sexy gamer girl cosplay thing that's going on now? That was Nintendo's idea.

Huge companies used to make a lot of stuff back in the golden age of capitalism. General electric was a big chemicals and plastics company for instance. It was just normal.
Nowadays, those mega-corporations make more money acting as a bank than they do selling stuff. They've just kept some product lines rolling because they're profitable and safe.
You couldn't just start a motorcycle company and be competitive against Yamaha. The specific expertise they have took decades to build, so why waste it by closing down those weird branches when they're still making money.
I ended up watching a video which was an in depth analysis of Japanese culture from pre-shogun era to modern day and they went into detail about how alot of these Japanese mega corporations started and got to the size they are now.
For reasons I'm still confused about it was titled "why we kill gods in jrpgs" but I recommend it even if you're not a gamer.
kinda scary how we let corporations get so large. shouldn't be legal imo

I need a good clothes washer.
Maytag: we can do that!
Nice. Where can I get some blue cheese?
Maytag: Maytag Farms
Now I know what my wayward socks do...
And they are quite elite on both
"And now I give you... The Moonlight Sonata."
Revs dirt bike engine
I learned this fact from Vocaloid (yep the one with Hatsune Miku), which is also developed by Yamaha. They had a mechanical parts department during WW2, and it survived by switching to making motorcycles after the war.
Ich: I want some freshly ground coffee. Hey, Tchibo, do you offer this?
Tchibo: Of course! That's my primary business.
Ich: By the way, Tchibo, do you know someone who sells raincoats and underwear, but basically no other clothes?
Tchibo: Funny that you ask...
Together we can cancel Reddit
They also apparently make a digital saxophone and compound bow (as in archery) grips.
Samsung is pretty cool like that. Need a TV? Samsung does it. Need a washer dryer set? Samsung. Need artillery? Believe it or not straight to Samsung.
pharmaceutical products? samsung again (though as CMOs not as name brands as far as I know)
What's always been funny to me is that Yamaha also seems to have the cheapest and some of the most expensive stuff too. Look at (piano) keyboards for example.
They play all sides so they always come out on top
Ich: I want to get into cooking. What is some very basic recipe book for beginners?
Dr. Oetker: What about mine: Dr. Oetkers Schulkochbuch?
Ich: But I'm actually too lazy to cook. I just gonna buy some frozen pizza.
Dr. Oetker: Here you go.
Yamaha makes audio products: Pianos, Speaker systems, motorcycles...
Nobody here is talking about how Exxon bucked this trend and only sells oil
They make earbuds too.
They make boat motors too, for some reason...
Me: i need washer Whirlpool: i got you Me: i also need WWII era military armaments Whirlpool: i got you
