🎴 History

Hanafuda means “flower cards.” A standard deck contains 48 cards arranged in twelve suits of four, representing the months through seasonal plants and flowers. Its broader historical background lies in the playing cards introduced to Japan by the Portuguese in the sixteenth century and the Japanese card-making and gaming traditions that followed. During the Meiji era, restrictions on hanafuda sales were lifted, and the cards became popular across social classes. Nintendo began as a hanafuda manufacturer in 1889. Despite the familiar standard deck, hanafuda has also had regional designs, including Echigo-bana, Yamagata-bana, and Shikoku’s Kintoki-bana. These regional patterns reflect a tradition that was not historically limited to one uniform design.

This Nintendo Marufuku Tengu deck is identified as Hanafuda. Its visible cards feature flowers, birds and foliage associated with this Japanese playing-card tradition.
