I'm not even sure if HAL exists anymore. I haven't seen anything from
them since probably 1993.

Never judge a man till you've walked a mile in his shoes, because by then, you're a mile away, you've got his shoes, and you can say whatever the hell you want.
The same HAL that programmed, among others, Super Smash Brothers, Paper
Mario, and anything with Kirby in the title? They're a Nintendo first
party, and have been for a while. About half of everything that
Nintendo releases these days has actually been programmed by HAL.

Yeah, I remembered that a few hours after posting. I don't think HAL
has a separate US division anymore, though, but obviously Nintendo
could release a new HAL-developed Lolo game. Strange as to why such a
successful series that spawned 3 US games and 5 in Japan never made it
past the 8-bit in either country, though.

its because the "gamer" of today relies on game guides instead of solving puzzles on their own, it defeats the whole purpose of playing puzzle games
