Background
Founded in 1969 as a jukebox rental and repair business, but later making arcade games in 1973, Konami is a game publisher based in Japan known for their franchises such as Frogger, Silent Hill, Metal Gear, PES (Pro Evolution Soccer), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (until Ubisoft acquired rights to the franchise, which would later be given to Activision), Castlevania, Gradius, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Contra, and Dance Dance Revolution.
1st Logo (1981-1986)
Logo: On a blue background, we see the text "Konami", with a tail on a "K", scrolls up fast. As it settles to the center, the text "SOFTWARE" with a line above appears below the logo.
Variants:
- On Arcade and Famicom titles, the still logo appears in title screen.
- On 1984-1985 MSX titles, "VIDEO CARTRIDGE" appears below the logo.

The finished logo
Logo: Against a black background, a spark draws a line at the top of the screen. It moves downward until a dark blue outline of the Konami logo from before is shown. Colors fill the Konami logo (the top ribbon orange, the bottom ribbon red, and "KONAMI" silver) and textures as the background fades to white. The end result is a beveled version of the Konami logo.
Trivia: This logo is based on the Konami Video logo.
Variants:
- Depending on the video game system, the line drawn by the spark is in a different color.
- Purple on Super Famicom/Super Nintendo games
- Green on Sega Mega Drive/Genesis games (this can also be spotted on Sega CD games, such as Snatcher)
- Blue on NEC PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16 games (this can also be spotted on TurboGrafx-CD games, such as Gradius II)
- On the SNES/Super Famicom version of Gradius III, the logo is shown after the familiar cross hatch screen seen when an arcade game is turned on. There is no copyright info.
- A still variant exists when region lockout occurs on the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive.
Technique: The line animation and the color fill.
Music/Sounds: A digitized rendition of the second half of the Konami Video logo music, which is an ascending/descending bell-like synth sound as the color appears (which sounds different depending on the game/system); otherwise silent.

- Super Nintendo Entertainment System: The theme is done using synth chimes.
- NEC PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16: The theme is done on a synth-organ.

- On Metal Warriors and the SNES version of Zombies Ate My Neighbors, the sound "reverberates" more.
- On NFL Football for the SNES, the music sounds more muffled.
- On Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure for the Sega Genesis, the music is fast.
Availability: Seen on all Konami releases for the SNES and Sega Genesis/Mega Drive (and the Sega CD/Mega CD add-on), as well as some for the NEC TurboGrafx 16/PC Engine. It was last seen on Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu Basic '98 for Super Famicom. The logo is preserved on Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles for the PSP and Wii Virtual Console versions of Konami releases as well as the Anniversary Collections for both Contra and Castlevania on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
Legacy: This is considered an iconic logo by the 16-bit era gaming community.
4th Logo (1991-1993)
Logo: Over a black background, two blue laser bars scroll around the screen, revealing the Konami logo after they intersect. The laser bars move out as the background fades to white, the Konami logo is briefly seen shining and "KONAMI" in the usual font wipes down below.

The Konami logo walking along

The finished logo
Logo: Against a black background with a white floor, we see the Konami logo from before, but rendered in 3D, walking across the screen from right to left, with the silvery text "KONAMI" following behind. The text then stops in the middle and the logo walks off-screen. The logo then walks in ahead toward the screen, pushing the text along with it until the screen turns white and both the text and logo turn into 2D (but in more solid colors than the 1st logo).
Technique: The logo and text moving.
Music/Sounds: A series of synth chimes as the logo walks around, followed by a synth fanfare as the logo is fully formed.
Availability: Common in Japan, extremely rare elsewhere.
- It is seen on almost all Konami releases on the PS1 and Saturn in Japan, such as Dance Dance Revolution and GuitarFreaks.
- It made its first appearance on the Japanese release of Gokujou Parodius Da! Deluxe Pack and last appeared on Tokimeki Memorial Drama Series Vol. 3: Tabidachi no Uta.
- It was also seen on a Japanese promotional tape for the PlayStation.
- In North America and Europe, it appears on Fisherman's Bait: A Bass Challenge and World Soccer Winning Eleven 3: Final Ver.. A majority of Konami titles overseas from this period went with the eighth logo.
Legacy: A memorable logo for many video game players thanks to the familiar CGI animation and whimsical music.

-
The finished product
Logo: Against a swirly dark blue sky looking similar to the northern lights, we see some boulders rising from the ground. The word "KONAMI" in steel flips up from underneath. We zoom out, and this ends with the two strips flipping up to the screen really fast. The screen quickly shifts to white, with the logo in slightly lighter colors and a registered trademark "®" symbol.
Technique: The boulders, the logo rising, the northern lights sky, and the logo forming.
Music/Sounds: A dramatic tune with boulders crumbling (sounds more like explosions), a jet-like sound as the strips fly forth, and an orchestral "hit" as the logo is formed.
Availability: Seen on pretty much all Konami games for the PS1 and Saturn released in North America and PAL territories, such as Contra: Legacy of War, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Kensei: Sacred Fist and select sports games from the company.
Legacy: Though not as popular nowadays as the 5th logo, this is still remembered by many North American and European gamers who have played Konami's 32-bit era titles.
11th Logo (1997-1999)
Logo: Against a black/blue gradient background, the three pieces of the Konami logo flip in, the orange ribbon coming in from the left, the red ribbon coming in from the right, and the company name in gray zooming out. When they join together, the screen turns white. The logo lacks the registered trademark "®" symbol from before.
Technique: The parts of the logo coming together.
Music/Sounds: Just a chime when the logo comes together.
