I noticed yet another small but interesting piece of info: A good chunk of development staff in Nintendo's list of first and second party teams is originally from Square and Enix. The Alpha Dream founder was Square's prez during the PS1 era, Genius Sorority were involved in Dragon Warrior up to VII, Chibi Robo by an ameteur member of Chrono Trigger's staff (has an interesting chat program underway that most likely will have WiFi), and of course you all know about Brownie Brown (Mother 3 MUST come here in some form!! O_O; )

This deserves a LOT of explanation. Truth may be stranger than fiction, but perhaps that's why Squenix has so many priorities for Wii and DS suddenly... xd

Updated 4/11: I just want to point out that it is certainly common for game designers to move to a larger company after being laid off. I'm just curious as to why the majority is Squenix... razz

Well back in the early days of Nitendo, Square Soft was a small part of the company but not fully owned. This lasted till the release of PS1.
