| '''[[nwiki:Nintendo|Nintendo]] Co., Ltd.''' (Japanese: {{alttext|任天堂株式会社|ニンテンドウ かぶしき がいしゃ}}) is a multinational company that publishes games in [[The Legendary Starfy (series)|''The Legendary Starfy'' series]]. Nintendo have directed and produced games in the series with developer [[TOSE]] and share half of the copyright to the series. The inspiration for ''The Legendary Starfy'' series came from a directive from Nintendo producer [[Hitoshi Yamagami]]'s boss in November 1995 to create some kind of 'floaty platformer'. Hitoshi Yamagami would later collaborate with TOSE producer [[Yasuhiro Minamimoto]]. A balloon-lifting game was in development until plans were changed and the main character was decided as a starfish in an early version of ''[[Densetsu no Starfy (GBC)|Densetsu no Starfy]]'' for the [[nwiki:Game Boy|Game Boy]]. This character eventually became [[Starfy]], who was featured in the [[Nintendo Space World|Nintendo Space World]] 2000 trial demo for the [[nwiki:Game Boy Color|Game Boy Color]].
