* On their earliest MSX titles and most later arcade titles, the logo would be instead in a sans-serif font. Either it would be in white, green, or red.
'''FX/SFXTechnique:''' None mostly, though a few games might have some movement. ''Colony 7'' has the "TAITO" letters glowing in different colors.
'''Music/Sounds:''' None.
* Many arcade games have unique variants of the logo (as described in the variants page).
'''FX/SFXTechnique:''' None for the most part.
'''Music/Sounds:'''
'''Trivia:''' This is actually a simplified version of the logo used at the end of Japanese commercials at the time.
'''FX/SFXTechnique:''' 16-bit animation with fake 3D-style effects.
'''Music/Sounds:''' The "Catch the Heart!" jingle as described in the previous logo.
* On ''Football Champ'' (known as ''Hat Trick Hero'' in Japan), the outer point doesn't fade in until the logo stops, and the background is black. This only appears in the arcade version.
'''FX/SFXTechnique:''' The logo zooming out.
'''Music/Sounds:''' Depends normally. It can have the game's opening theme or is silent.
'''Logo:''' Over a black background, the logo drops down and is in shape of a 3D cone, with the streak being white. The TAITO wordmark then fades in below, and the cone logo changes into the traditional plain logo.
'''FX/SFXTechnique:''' The 3DCG animation of the logo.
'''Music/Sounds:''' None.
'''Logo:''' The 3D Taito logo zooms out on a black background. The ball of the logo moves in from the right and places next to the triangle's streak. Then a flash happens, bringing up the flat version of the same logo on a white background.
'''FX/SFXTechnique:''' The logo zooming out (like the previous one, but in 3D), and the flash.
'''Music/Sounds:''' A quick laser zapping sound, then followed by a held synth bass note with a descending sounder when the logo zooms out and a quick swoosh during the flash.
'''Logo:''' The {{color|#00f|blue}} triangle is seen from the top and pans to the side view. Four light streaks enter it and glow in the center. The triangle moves to the forming word "TAITO" and poses as the letter "A". Then it flashes and changes the background to white.
'''FX/SFXTechnique:''' Good computer effects.
'''Music/Sounds:''' An atmospheric synth score.
** When shutting down, the logo is on a black background with a white outline. After a few seconds, the logo is squished horizontally to mimic a TV switching off.

'''Music/Sounds:''' None.
