    Changing Industries: Nintendo pursues Manga instead of Video Games

    We all know the classic titles of Nintendo and the legacy of their characters that have persisted throughout the video game industry. But what if Nintendo instead pursued a different venture. What if Nintendo followed through the manga and anime business? 1970: Nintendo, a small playing card...

    Alternate history tech question: Could we, with greater investment and research, have developed a room-temperature superconductor by the 1990s?

    Basically the title question. We don't have a room-temperature seni-conductor now. I am curious though if it is one of those technologies that is possible and how early in our tech development would such a thing be possible and appliable? The implicatons would be huge. We could build long range...

    The Return: An Alternate History of our Return to the Moon
    Threadmarks: Chapter 1: Start of Something New

    Hey there fellas! For a while I've been wanting to do a somewhat serious/realistic alternate history post focusing on the Space Shuttle. Specifically, this Alt History is based around a odd but interesting concept: Early Lunar Access. Early Lunar Access (ELA) was an early 90s concept focusing...

  5. What if instead of the Late President Ferdinand Marcos becoming the President of the Philippines in his time.

    Someone else became the dictator and went deranged due to a family tragedy (example rebels killing members of his family) during martial law. He then plotted to bomb the Malacañang Palace on the time EDSA Revolution happened, and succeeded to blow up himself, the palace, and the revolutionists...

  6. Consequences of a 1994 Crimean independance on Ukraine and her nukes.

    DISCLAIMER: Please, remember the ''No current politics'' rule and don't discuss the ongoing armed conflict. I am talking about a scenario where the Supreme Soviet manages to oust Yeltsin during the 1993 constitutional crisis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1993_Russian_constitutional_crisis...

  7. What if Le Pen got into the second round in 1995?

    Hi. I've been reading this forum for almost 3 years already and finally decided to ask something myself. Basically, I have a scenario with the first PoD being the success of 1993 WTC bombing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1993_World_Trade_Center_bombing So, considering that all this post...

  8. WI: No August Coup and a surviving Soviet Union

    I've always found the idea of a successful New Union Treaty/surviving Soviet Union fascinating, especially in light of the current Ukraine-Russia crisis. From my (admittedly limited) research on the subject, the August coup attempt by Soviet hardliners is what finally killed the USSR, as it...

    What If George Carlin became a politician?

    Hello everyone I've already made a scenario on this topic but it's not 2000 words and I don't plan to artificially make it 2000 words. I enjoyed writing it based off my knowledge of Carlin's politics and beliefs and tried to use his words where possible. Below is a script for my youtube video...

    What if SEGA actually owned Pokemon franchise in the 1990s and the 2000s?

    https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/gotta-catch-em-all-faster-if-sega-owned-pokémon.439906/ Ugh. this is my old timeline when I was that SEGA Obsessed person back in 2018 but how would a SEGA-themed Pokemon Timeline work even with Nintendo not understanding the Capsule Monsters...
