The Wikipedia page on Quintet suggests that they have made the same contribution to other games in the series (or perhaps the graphics are just reused, I don't know) but I can't find any credit videos to verify.

The Granstream Saga is often linked to the 'heaven and earth'(Soul Blazer-Illusion of Gaia-Terranigma) trilogy, though it was made by Shade, who contain many Quintet ex-employees. See link for credit analysis. Curiously it is listed on Quintet's extinct homepage in the 'Quintet Game Library' section.

Quintet receive a credit ('The Producers wish to thank the following' section; 'Production' subsection) in Shenmue, as do other game developers like ASCII, Ancient, Arc System Works, and SIMS.
