Nintendium

Nintendium is a recently discovered element named after the Nintendo corporation that is currently not very understood. It usually decays quickly outside of lab conditions, and was first discovered by Nintendo in 1994, though went undocumented until 2021 outside of Nintendo. The element is highly radioactive unless refined.

It was first discovered when a cartridge of Super Mario 64 was being dissected and a strange material was found inside of the cartridge, that was later found to be a refined version of Nintendium. It is currently unknown what the Nintendium in the cartridge was exactly used for, but it was potentially used to create a cooling device to use for some of the components in the cartridge that make up parts of the Personalization A.I., or potentially make up some of these components themselves.

Recently, scientists have been able to recreate an unrefined form of Nintendium, which has revealed it's dangerous properties. Very little applications for Nintendium have been discovered past Nintendo's usage that scientists have been unable to replicate. Some scientists have proposed a theoretical nuclear reactor that can take advantage of Nintendium's properties, though this has gone untested.

Reports
Below is a list of documents or incidents related to Nintendium that have been found. Note that some of these may have been falsified due to Nintendium's recent discovery.

News Report
During the early 2000's, a man living in a small town was discovered dead in their house due to radiation poisoning. They had a nearby cartridge of Super Mario 64 that had several parts taken out of it. It is believed that they had somehow broken or altered the Nintendium components, causing the sudden radiation.

This got onto the news, though it was suddenly pulled from air about an hour later and all official sources were hidden or deleted, likely due to Nintendo attempting to censor it. However, several people have reported seeing this news report when it broadcasted, though have started to forget some details due to the report's age.

Nintendo Document
An anonymous user going by the name of Fred Sephur claims to have found a document made by Nintendo upon first discovering it. The document was on paper, so they attempted to type it into a computer and translate it from Japanese. Below are the only paragraphs that were majorly translated. Note that some words may be missing due to the age of the document making some words illegible, or some words being unable to be translated.

"Nintendium is an element created by the [Illegible] of Polonium and [Untranslated]. When refined, it functions as a highly effective conductor of electricity and [Untranslated] signals. It was first discovered by Sugai [Illegible] of the [Illegible] company when they were looking for an effective means of creating the [Untranslated]."

"Nintendium has proven an effective means of generating [Illegible] and other successful outputs. However, it has resulted in the death of Urata [Illegible] due to it's excessive radiation. Nintendium is now only to be contained inside of a [Illegible] or in a refined state."

"The Nintendium project has been deemed complete, as it has been successfully integrated into the cartridge of Ultra 64 Mario Brothers. However, there may be future projects using Nintendium in order to increase [Untranslated]."
