I think I might have some of those bricks. I have some very long white 2x?
plates/semibricks. They are badly bent due to age(?) or hostile climate(?).

I knew what Nintendo made toys before they made games but I had no idea they
made a LEGO clone.

Some interesting things on the page:

-First check out the old Nintendo logo in the bottom left of the first
image.
-Interesting "peanut" 2x5 bricks
-In the 3rd image look at all the cool round pieces. 4 cone pieces that
stacked up to a point.
-The 4th image has a shot of the sets.  Looks very much like old school LEGO
sets.
-chrome silver bricks
-weird fairy tell sets at the bottom.

Anybody in the west or in Japan have any more information on these?  I can't
tell the date on them but it looks like sometime in the 70's.
