The final time Nintendo purchased a studio from Bandai Namco, it labored out REALLY nicely for them.
Nintendo has opened a department in Singapore to increase their presence in Southeastern Asia, and now they’re selecting up an area studio.
A information launch was posted by Nintendo this morning saying a deliberate acquisition of Bandai Namco Studios Singapore. 80% of the agency – a controlling curiosity – can be acquired on April 1, with the rest to be acquired “as soon as the subsidiary’s operations have stabilized”. The corporate can be referred to as “Nintendo Studios Singapore” following the acquisition.
BNSS was concerned within the growth of Splatoon 3 and was at one time rumored to be engaged on Metroid Prime 4 earlier than its 2019 public reboot and motion to Retro Studios.
