Namco Bandai changes their company name


Slow news day eh? Aside from Taiwan officially getting Taiko no Tatsujin Momoiro today (albeit with a few licensed songs cut out due to copyright difficulties; we'll cover more on that as we get more information), we learned a few days ago that Namco Bandai Games Incorporated (NBGI) has flipped their company name around, turning it into Bandai Namco Games Incorporated.

Not much of a big deal; the two names are used interchangeably pretty often because Bandai comes first in Japan, whereas for the rest of the world, it's the other way around. They're just formalizing the company name throughout the world so now no one can argue whether Namco or Bandai comes first in the name.
