The Evolution of UNO (1971-2020)

General Info:
Welcome one and all to the history of the card game you, a family member, or even friends have played. I go over some brief history, then we run down all the most popular and important versions of UNO over the years. We will include the physical card game versions AS WELL AS the electronic versions.

Additional Info:
Please note that there were other versions regarding "celebrity" editions as well as kids editions, but these were not important to the companies' success as the rights were shuffled around over the years. Also note that UNO was updated far more frequently and had a slightly longer support life on iOS than Android for reasons unknown. Yes, I know, UNO was on Xbox 360, PS3, Wii and DSi, but they are all so similar to the mobile version released in 2012, that I decided to go with that to sum it all up. The holders over the years have been Merle Robbins, International Games Inc., Mattel, Gameloft and Ubisoft. However, Mattel is the dominant holder to this day regarding physical copies while Ubisoft has electronic rights.

The classic 1971 version of uno will always be my favorite one.

Me and my mom were looking through some old stuff and we found these uno cards she got as a child. I was curious how old they were and yeah they're the first ones in this video :) She almost threw them away but I took them before she could do that hehe

[AirbenderAttorney]

Ah, here it is! The full version of it!

Me when i see a 17, 13, 15 and +1 wild card: *WAIT, THATS ILLEGAL*

[LogicWasActuallyNotHere]

glad to see uno still lives these days. They're 50 now holy shoot.

The chronology of this video is all over the damn place, not to mention, this guy glossed over the updated version back in the 1980s where the backing was red, and the action cards gained their icons

[fansandjams]

I have the 2001 uno (it looks so old to me) and my aunt has the 1971 version

[LetGoMyLegosTyler]

that's so cool they made a braille version

My Grandma has the 1971 Uno cards. Her and my Grandpa would use the cards when they had parties in 1976 and whenever I come over.

I wonder if the Uno video games also had options for, and/or alternate Uno decks that could be unlocked in those games? I would love to play a video game with the iconic 1970s Uno deck in the game.

The 2014 UNO for iOS is so nostalgic. Used to play it back in the day

A friend had the H2O version, and my mom had the 2013 version, some cards where lost and I use that one nowadays.

[guywithgrasspfp]

My favorite uno is uno 2017 on the consoles and pc and uno wild and uno flip

6:05 how were you able to get footage of UNO & Friends, the game has shut down

[BopDiva]

3:13 You have no idea how many HOURS I put into this game on my DS as a kid.

There is a reprint of Uno H2O that released just last summer. it was renamed Uno Splash with a waterproof version of Dos also being released called Dos Splash

[hiekwongwong]

I have the 2019 UNO and the different 1971 UNO!

[IneedmoresubsOnline]

I missed the You Win screen, Why did you skip it?

[dianee]

I was looking at a bunch of grandma’s old stuff and I found monopoly and a set of old uno cards😊

Nozomi Tsuji made a parody of UNO named DOS(dosu)
DOS has three suits(shaped like playing cards):blue(diamond), red(heart) and green(clover)
