History
In 2000, Nintendo and Dentsu founded Nd Cube as part of a joint venture, Nintendo owning 78% of the company's shares while Dentsu owned 13.3% of shares, the other 8.9% being undecided. The "Nd" in the name was derived from the founders of the company, the capital "N" indicating Nintendo's majority ownership.
By April 2006, many of Nd Cube's employees had moved on to join other developers, primarily Nintendo and Square Enix, after Nintendo rejected the company's experimental projects. In that time, they posted job ads for Wii and Nintendo DS development. At a later point, many former employees from Hudson Soft, including core Mario Party staff and former president Hidetoshi Endo, joined Nd Cube.
In August 2010, Nintendo purchased all of Dentsu's shares, becoming the sole owner with 98% of the company's shares.
On September 1, 2024, the company officially changed its name to Nintendo Cube.
