The new logo expresses Konami Group's business expansion while maintaining the fundamentals of creativity and innovation and portraying confidence and surprise. This word mark also expresses the mindset of continually moving forward to the next stage while sharing the same value with its customers.
Color Usage
Red (hereafter to be called "Konami Red") is used to show stability and strong appeal to Konami's "Creativity" and "Innovation".


I'm not feeling it. I've never felt it. The new logo does not exude "creativity" and "innovation." Not more than the old logo. You want to know why? Because the old logo had that "du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du" sound and that shiny effect. But not the new Konami logo. The new Konami logo has nothing. That's just how it is.

Doesn't Konami mean "small waves" or something similar.

I voted old.

I like the old one better, but it's good that they changed it. The old logo would be ridiculous on the Elebits cover for instance.

new one > old one.

I can't exactly tell why, but I like the new logo more than the old one. Maybe it's because I'm used to see it whenever I play Enthusia, or maybe it's the nifty design of the logo ... I love it. Like I love cars and can't tell why, that's the same with the logo here.

When the new logo shows up on screen it just flashes in and out. No sound, nothing really special.

The old version came out of the frickin' rocks.

Guess who wins in my book?

Old has quite a lot of fun personality.
New is very coool.

Meh, I think they should have both logos, and use one or the other depending on the game.

Like, I can't imagine a Goemon with the new logo.

The new Konami logo cannot jauntily walk onto the screen while a happy tune plays, like the old one can: http://youtube.com/watch?v=i4pu1rKkOfA

(go 3DO Policenauts!)

Thus, I don't like it. It does look classy, but I think for them to throw out the one of the most recognizable logos of gaming history is...A waste.

the new logo looks like it's for a company to place on a bag of chips or cookies, up in the corner.

...

!

konami cookies - would that make a good thread topic?

I always likened it to AVON or some cosmetics company.

Did you hear the translation is nearing completion and should be released late 2007? I may track down a copy (or hell, a torrent) and check it out.

And don't forget the 'laser beam' Konami logo from the 16-bit days. (TMNT, Sunset Riders Castlevania IV, etc. etc.)
