were previously known, has had a fascinating video game Animal Crossing Items industry legacy. Originally formed in 2000 as a subsidiary of Nintendo, Brownie Brown was primarily comprised of ex-Squaresoft developers who mainly worked on beloved titles like Secret of Mana, Trials of Mana, and Legend of Mana. Initially led by Kameoka Shinichi and Kōji Tsuda, this fresh studio started with a reputation for crafting some of the most stunning JRPGs of the era.
Under the Brownie Brown banner, this team delivered a series of popular titles exclusively designed for Nintendo's handheld hardware. Starting with Magical Vacation for Gameboy Advance 2001, the artistic and mechanical influences of Shinichi's and Tsuda's previous LOLGA.COM works were immediately apparent. Brownie Brown went on to ship further entries in the Mana series, such as Sword of Mana, and even partnered with HAL Laboratories to develop the cult Gameboy Advance title, Mother 3, in 2006.
The launch of EGGLIA: Rebirth on Nintendo Switch marks the beginning of a new chapter for Brownies.
