In the early days of Nintendo, president [[Hiroshi Yamauchi]] decided that their employees would do better if they competed against each other in smaller groups. The first group, R&D1, was lead by [[Gunpei Yokoi]]. In the early years, R&D1 was responsible for the [[Game & Watch]] series and [[arcade]] games. [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] also started in R&D1 as a graphic designer. | In the early days of Nintendo, president [[Hiroshi Yamauchi]] decided that their employees would do better if they competed against each other in smaller groups.

They were also able to convince the executives at Nintendo to let them create [[Wario Land]] series instead of continuing with [[Super Mario Land]]. They thought that Wario represented their situation. |
Though they weren't allowed to make many games for the [[Super Nintendo]], R&D1 made ''[[Super Metroid]]''.
