Nd Cube is a Nintendo research and development group who is known in the early part of the company's history for creating F-Zero: Maximum Velocity and Tube Slider. The company is currently headed by Hidetoshi Endo, who was the former president of Hudson Soft.
History
The company was founded in 2000 when there was an agreement between Nintendo with seventy-eight percent of the shares, and their advertising firm Dentsu with twelve percent of the shares, hence the name "Nd". It started out as a subsidiary of Nintendo for developing Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance games, with most of the games released exclusively in Japan under a low profile. Since then, the company was struggling as it lost employees to Sony.
In April 2006, many of the employees migrated to Nintendo, Square Enix and other third-party licensee publishers after Nintendo rejected the company's experimental projects. In that time, they posted job ads for Wii and Nintendo DS development.
In August 2010, Nintendo bought out all the shares from Dentsu, and is now currently the owner of the company, having ninety-six of the shares. Their first game under Nintendo's ownship is Wii Party, lead by the Mario Party series lead staff who left Hudson Soft to join NdCube.
