In the beginning, there was the Hand. Clothed in a white glove made of nigh-impenetrable fabric, the Hand was with power. The Hand's power was both creative and destructive. For centuries the two powers battled within the mind of the Hand. The Hand would create worlds and universes, only for them to be destroyed by him. Many generations passed in this time, which would be forever known as "the Chaos."

Near the end of the Chaos, the Hand realized that there was only one way to stop the madness: by splitting himself up into two separate beings. One of these beings would contain all of the Hand's creative power; the other would contain his destructiveness. The Hand favored the creative hand, and thus named it dominant. It would forever be known as the Master Hand, while his opposite-fingered counterpart would be known as Crazy Hand. The original Hand was now nothing but a soul. To preserve his essence, he thrust himself into the Mater Hand. When Master Hand saw this, he was blessed.

Master Hand saw that the only way to save the universe and ideology that his "father" created was to vanquish Crazy Hand. Master Hand searched through galaxy upon galaxy, all throughout the universe he inhabited to find his brother, but Crazy Hand would not give up easily. One day, Master Hand accidentally stumbled upon Crazy Hand, hiding many lightyears away from his homeland. Once Crazy Hand was encountered, an amazing battle took place. It raged on for days, with neither side giving in to the other. Though he was vastly stronger than his brother, it was impossible for Master Hand to kill him. Master Hand soon realized that he could not destroy Crazy Hand because he did not have the power to destroy; he could only create. Knowing that he could not truly win, he created a new dimension, one to act as a prison to hold Crazy Hand. It would be impossible for him to escape, and would be forced to watch the rest of Master Hand's creation eat, play, and interact with each other from afar. This dimension would serve as Crazy Hand's final destination. Master Hand succeeded in trapping his brother, and rejoiced; for his father's world would live on.

But, Master Hand soon grew lonely. As such, he created a new world, a massive one filled with different species and creatures. This world would be the greatest world ever conceived, and he named it "Nintendo."
