The really don't have enough people at all...

Nintendo Employees: >3000

EA Employees: 9370

And Nintendo is a hardware company... So yea... The fact that they can even release this many games is amazing

That's not Nintendo employees, the 3000 figure is not up to date. Nintendo has over 5000 employees, and the numbers had been rising for years now:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo At worst, 3000+ is the number of pure video game developers which have nothing to do with the hardware or other non-programming related.

It also excludes the developers from their partner studios like Intelligent Systems or HAL Laboratory.

Welp, thats what I get for trusting wiki with google search + being lazy

Either ways, it is quite impressive imo still since Nintendo still has two hardware to manage while companies like EA who still have quite a bit more employees don't
