After Yokoi's resignation in 1996, the group was led by Takehiro Izushi. In 2005, Satoru Iwata restructured Nintendo's development resources and placed all of the internal software teams, including R&D1, under Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development. Metroid games R&D1 created are Metroid, Super Metroid, Metroid Fusion, Metroid: Zero Mission and Metroid: Other M.
