Intelligent Systems Co., Ltd. (株式会社インテリジェントシステムズ Kabushiki-Gaisha Interijento Shisutemuzu?) is a video game developer and internal team of Nintendo Co., Ltd.

Intelligent Systems came into being when members of Nintendo's Nintendo Research & Development 1 division headed by Gunpei Yokoi splintered off into its own development team. Yokoi worked alongside Intelligent Systems on a number of its titles before his departure from Nintendo following the failure of the Virtual Boy. Intelligent Systems is known for creating or expanding some of the most well-received Nintendo franchises, including Metroid, Kid Icarus, Nintendo Wars, Paper Mario, and Fire Emblem. In the past it has also designed many of Nintendo's development tools including the Super Nintendo Emulator SE.

Intelligent Systems currently focuses on Game Boy Advance, DS, and Wii development, and has developed games for all of Nintendo's previous handhelds and consoles.

[edit] Nintendo 64

  • Paper Mario - The quasi-sequel to Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, featuring a new Paper style of visuals, and new style of gameplay.
  • Pokémon Puzzle League - A remake to Panel de Pon or Tetris Attack - Developed in the US by Nintendo Software Technology Corporation.
  • 64 Wars (Cancelled) - The Nintendo 64 sequel to Game Boy Wars. Not much is known about it, as the game was never released.
  • Fire Emblem 64 (Cancelled) - The Nintendo 64 installment in the Fire Emblem series. No screenshots were released, and it was cancelled. However, early screenshots of Fire Emblem: Fuuin no Tsurugi display a radical change in graphics and style from the game's final build, as well as include characters that were nowhere to be seen in the game. This, along with the game's original title, "Maiden in the Darkness," and the fact that at one point in Fuuin no Tsurugi one character is surreptitiously given that title, has caused speculation that perhaps much of the game's story and/or mechanics was transferred onto the Gameboy Advance
  • Metroid 64 (Cancelled) - The Nintendo 64 installment in the Metroid series. No screenshots were released, and it was cancelled.

[edit] Wii

  • Fire Emblem: Goddess of Dawn The tenth game in the Fire Emblem series.
  • WarioWare: Smooth Moves
  • Super Paper Mario - An upcoming title styled after the Paper Mario games, but unlike these two, this will be more platformer than RPG. The game was originally slated to be a Nintendo GameCube title before development was transferred to the Wii.
