It’s a well-known fact that Bandai Namco co-developed Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. However, it turns out that they also assisted development of several other recent Nintendo games, including Mario Kart Tour, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and ARMS. Here’s the breakdown for the work they did on each title, straight from their recently updated products page:

Mario Kart Tour

For the smartphone game “Mario Kart Tour”, released by Nintendo on September 25th, 2019, we partially implemented in-games and 3D visual assets for courses, characters and machines. We also produced approximately half of bonus challenges.

ARMS

For Nintendo Switch game “ARMS”, released in July 16, 2017, we produced approximately half of visual assets for stages, fighters and arms.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

For Nintendo Switch game “MARIO KART 8 DELUXE”, released in April 28, 2017, we produced approximately half of visual assets for courses, characters and machine parts.
