Out of all the things Nintendo have worked on this year, this one is certainly the most bizarre. This is a set of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure hanafuda playing cards. The name of this set? Jojo’s Bizarre Hanafuda ~ Gold Fuda.
Nintendo is, of course, originally a card company. Hanafuda is a traditional card game in Japan.
