Proposal to rename to Nintendo EPD or create new article[edit]

In September 2015, Nintendo EAD was superseded by a new classification of development teams, called Nintendo EPD. While this means that the main series Pikmin games were developed by Nintendo EAD teams, it means that Pikmin 3 Deluxe is being developed by a Nintendo EPD team (even if the team contains the same developers). Does this mean that the article should be renamed, or should a new article be created for Nintendo EPD? - Botanist (talk) 03:04, September 23, 2020 (EDT)
