Super Mario Party studio NDcube confirmed as dev for Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics
When Nintendo announced Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics back in March, there was some speculation that Super Mario Party developer NDcube was working on the project. However, Nintendo never actually confirmed that information. But now that the game is out and we’re able to see the credits, we can officially say that NDcube is primarily behind the new Switch release.
For one thing, the company is very clearly listed towards the end of the credits. Additionally, many of the key developers from Super Mario Party returned for Clubhouse Games.
We have a look at the top staff positions listed in the credits below. You’ll notice that most employees carried over similar roles from Super Mario Party.
