Coca-Cola: Founded 1888
Nintendo: Founded 1889
Dracula, by Bram Stoker: Published 1897
It would have been historically accurate for the vampire hunters who killed Dracula to celebrate by having a Coke and playing Nintendo.
Were they still a playing card company then?
Right until 1970 when they took a hard pivot into the new-fangled tech called "Computers"
Aye, and just before that to toys
Yup!
Weren't they involved with brothels at some point?
I'm sorry, I don't know their history well though to answer that.
So playing a card game and drinking literal cocaine?
As one does
Probably something Bram Stoker did.
