Brownie Brown Inc, the Japanese Nintendo-funded and owned video game development studio, has announced on its site that it is changing its name, and restructuring. The studio which has recently helped out on development of two Level-5 titles, Professor Layton and the Last Specter and Fantasy Life, will now be called 1-UP Studio. Details about the restructure have yet to be announced.

Didn't they also recently help out with Super Mario 3D Land? Hopefully this name change doesn't mean they're just being used as a backup studio for Mario games.
