Nintendo Entertainment Analysis & Development

Nintendo Entertainment Analysis & Development, commonly abbreviated as Nintendo EAD, is the largest department branch of Nintendo. It was formed in 1983 when Hiroshi Yamauchi decided to create a new department focusing around Shigeru Miyamoto. It's current president is Satoru Iwata and Miyamoto is the division's general manager. It has since developed many games in the Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Pikmin, Animal Crossing and F-Zero series, among others.

On September 14, 2015, it was announced that Nintendo EAD and Nintendo Software Planning & Development would be merged into a new division, titled Nintendo Entertainment Planning & Development, effective September 16, 2015.
