Brownie Brown
Encyclopedia : B : BR : BRO : Brownie Brown
is a Nintendo-funded video game development studio opened on June 30, 2000 and based in Tokyo, Japan. The company itself consists of many ex-Square Co., Ltd. 2D artists, who had participated on the development of Legend of Mana. Two of its founders had previously worked on the award-winning Seiken Densetsu series on the Game Boy and Super Nintendo gaming consoles.Their first original creation was the Japan-only Magical Vacation for the Game Boy Advance, which was released in 2001. Another popular title developed by Brownie Brown was Sword of Mana, which was created for and published by Square Enix. Thought to be a new title in the Seiken Densetsu series, it was actually an enhanced remake of the first game in the series, Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden (known as Final Fantasy Adventure in North America).
Brownie Brown has also been credited with the development of Mother 3 in a collaborative effort with Shigesato Itoi and HAL Laboratory, and Magical Starsign(Magical Vacation: When the Five Stars Align in Japan) for the Nintendo DS.
While Brownie Brown has only released video games for Nintendo's handheld video game systems up to this point, the company had previously announced a title for the Nintendo GameCube, named Gofuku, which was scheduled for release in 2005 and was announced alongside Magical Vacation: When the Five Stars Align. No information about the game has been released since its announcement, however, leading to the assumption that Gofuku has either been cancelled or is being developed for Nintendo's upcoming Wii console instead, though neither of these possibilities can be confirmed or denied at this time.
