Me: I need a flute for my orchestra performance
Yamaha: No problem, here’s our 800W Series.
Me: You wouldn’t happen to know where I can
get a heavy 600 cc sport bike with the stop speed of 260km would you?
Yamaha: You’re not gonna believe thisDon’t forget your electric guituar amplyfier on the way out
ME: The concert’s on a boat by the way, and we need power really soon. Do you happen to have outboard boat motors?
YAMAHA: Have I got something for you right here.
Gear it right (or wrong I guess) and that 600cc WILL hit 300km/h. They put out the same power the original hyperbikes did.
I also love that all of the greatest Toyota car engines have had Yamaha heads.
I think just mentioning the LFA suffices
Yamaha often gets overlooked for instruments, I think a lot of this is that we don’t expect a company that makes jetskis and motorcycles to also know what they’re doing with guitars, saxophones, and pianos, but they actually make good quality stuff.
It’s more accurate to think of Yamaha as a conglomerate that owns several different companies. It’s just that a lot of those smaller companies are also named Yamaha
Fun fact, the Yamaha logo is an image of three tuning forks, laid atop each other.
Me: I need a trumpet, a xylophone, full drum kit, an electric guitar, a full PA system and a grand piano for my jazz show
Yamaha: I got you
Me: I also need a motorcycle to get there and a set of golf clubs for Sunday
Yamaha: I gotchu there too
Me: I want to play games until I get fat
Konami: yo, there you go
Me: damn, that was a bad idea, I need to go work out in a gym
Konami: I’m way ahead of you
Up up down down left right left right B A
Bally: What if we offered the same thing, but also with casinos and crappy sports channels?
you can lose weight AND money in the same day, what a deal! /s
Me: I will also need a motor for my boat
Yamaha: anything else?
Me: An ATV for the beach, a Snow Mobile for the winter and a Jet-Ski just because they’re fun.
Yamaha: Of course!
Me: Oh, and you wouldn’t know where I could find a DVD player?
Don’t forget the jet ski saxophone and clarinet recital. Then there’s the Lexus LFA
I love how these logos often still reflect the initial small scale business, a Yamaha motorbike still features a trio of tuning forks for music. A Mitsubishi… anything… has the three propellor blades of a Zero fighter plane. I made that second one up but apparently it’s three Oak Leaves or Water Caltrops, a simple and enduring symbol.
Mitsubishi literally means “three diamonds”
I saw a Samsung excavator the other day
Brother (the printer company), makes world-class sewing machines. Home use and heavy commercial.
Sewing machines and printers aren’t all that different. They both take a media and apply it to a medium using a motor and replaceable supplies. Especially when you consider the sewing machines that you connect to a computer and sew images and patterns to.
So does Toyota (before cars in fact)
Samsung, the shitty TV maker that used to be good, makes war tanks.
And apartment buildings.
And is a hospital
Man, this Smart fridge is amazing. Do you, by any chance, happen to make self propelled atillery tanks as well?
The record player I grew up with is a freaking Mitsubishi
Mitsubishi was founded by a samauri.
So I was curious, and I looked it up. You’re close: the founder was a descendent of a line of samurai, but his great grandfather sold the status/title in order to resolve debt obligations
Now I know why my girl friend and I both love Hitachi…

They also make Scanning Electron Microscopes.

Title: chef’s kiss 👌
Hold up before you place the order! I need train carriages, a supercomputer, radiotherapy equipment, nuclear power plant, aircon, self propelled artillery and an escalator. Don’t ask me why.
Fine, oh and add that CPU from the Dreamcast
I also need a 3.5" harddrive and a push lawnmower

That’s not a Hitachi on the left.

Hitachi don’t make those anymore.
Hitachi rebranded their magic wands because they didn’t want their brand to be permanently associated with sex toys
They did not rebrand them. They stopped manufacturing them completely. They didn’t license it to other manufacturers, they sold the rights outright. They have entirely divested themselves.
This isn’t a Hitachi or a modern third party version; this one operates on DC and has button controls and a power button instead of one chunky switch.
this one operates on DC
Hitachi really missed the man in the canoe when they stopped at 110v. Could have made a high-end 240v dryer plug model to really drive it home.
Three. Phase. Sex. Toys.
Ah my bad. You are correct internet guy. Kindly accept my apologies.
Seems like it’s a little late for that.

HGST drives were pretty good for the price as well. Just keep it away from your other Hitachi “tools”
Samsung though: phones, tanks, healthcare equipment
Also 20% of South Koreas economy
