Intelligent Systems
Encyclopedia
is a Japan
ese first-party video game developer
and internal team of Nintendo Co., Ltd
. It has its headquarters in the Nintendo Kyoto Research Center in Higashiyama-ku
, Kyoto
, Kyoto Prefecture
.
Intelligent Systems entered the video game industry as a one-man team, named Toru Narihiro, who was hired by Nintendo
to port over Famicom Disk
software into the standard ROM-cartridge format that was being used by the NES
outside Japan. The team soon became an auxiliary program unit for Nintendo (like HAL Laboratory
originally) that provided system tools and hired people to program, fix, or port Nintendo-developed software. Thus much of the team's original discography contains minuscule contributions to several big Nintendo R&D1 and Nintendo EAD titles.
Chief programmer Toru Narihiro programmed his first actual game software with Famicom Wars
and Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryū to Hikari no Tsurugi towards the end of the Famicom's life cycle, although the game design, graphic design, and music was provided by the Nintendo R&D1 team. But because of Narihiro's success, Intelligent Systems began to hire graphic designers, programmers, and even musicians to extend the company from an auxiliary–tool developer to an actual game development group. The company would continue to develop later entries in the Wars and Fire Emblem
franchises.
Intelligent Systems currently focuses on DS and Wii development, and has developed games for all of Nintendo's previous handhelds and consoles.

|Cancelled - The Nintendo 64 installment in the Fire Emblem series. No screenshots were released 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 Game Boy Advance.
