Fire Cone it has moved from a series of plans to and from one of Nintendo's crown jewels, and its recent popularity in popularity has had a positive impact on its creator, Intelligent Systems.
Before the introduction of Fire Cone: Awakening and Fire Emblem Wheels on the 3DS – the former of which is set to return the interest of the game community to the series – the Japanese studio employs 130 people. As of January 2020, that number has increased to 169 employees – the highest rate ever for the company.
Of that total, 68 people have been hired as graphic designers, and 63 are programmers. 14 are listed as & # 39; editors & # 39; (Japanese designer's name) while 10 works on & # 39; s sound design & # 39; Hardware engineers are 4, and the management staff – which includes accounting and sales – is up to 10 people.
It is interesting to note that this increase in the workforce has also led to an increase in the number of female employees in Intelligent Systems. As of 2018, 31 percent of employees have been listed as women.
Many employees naturally claim a lot of costs, but luckily Intelligent Systems & # 39; s increased accordingly, so that's not a big deal. Back in 2011, the company's capital was listed as 23.9 million Yen. Fast forward to 2017, and that number has risen to 90 million Yen. We can imagine, given the success of Fire Cone: Three houses and the endless popularity of Fire Emblem Heroes, the numbers will continue to go straight to 2020.
So, when do we get that Wars of Advance to follow?
