| O-D-C said: ya Nintendo has a lot of studios Nintendo R&D 1-5 Nintendo EAD NST Brownie Brown Intelligent Systems and many more |
R&D was dissolved as of the 2004 restructuring, replaced by Nintendo SPD to a certain extent (at least, that's where Sakamoto and his staff went)
Some games Nintendo won't say which studio they're from specifically, especially the games made by EAD, you have to sift through yourself whether its an EAD1, 2, 3, 4, or EAD Tokyo game, but otherwise it's rather obvious.
The only difference is that Nintendo's wholly-owned studios with distinct names generally aren't making the top-tier stuff, in the sense that far more gamers probably know who Naughty Dog and Turn 10 are than Retro Studios (sadly enough, since Retro made the best game of all time)
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
