Seriously. It reminds me of Nintendo's "there's no play like it" thing they were briefly trying.The tag line is kinda dumb too
That’s a pretty good view of the old logo. Think they could have tidied it up or made some kind of visual tweak to make it pop more. This looks like Twitch to me.Is this the first megaton news thread on FamiBoards?
I don't hate it in isolation, but the old logo always made me think of a lumpy Katamari:

This really doesn’t work as well.Just a dreadfully ugly logo

Or brought back the BanPresto logoI never thought their current logo (I guess former now) was something great or iconic, but it was fine, at least recognizable at a glance. The new one lost a lot of personality, and I actually find it kind of ugly. If they were looking for something more minimalist they should have looked towards the old pre-merger classic Namco red logo for inspiration, that was simple, but a good lesson in iconography and at least pleasing to the eyes.
Both companies had superior minimalist logos pre-merger. Even just stacking them on top of each other would have looked better.If they were looking for something more minimalist they should have looked towards the old pre-merger classic Namco red logo for inspiration, that was simple, but a good lesson in iconography and at least pleasing to the eyes.
I forgot what the old Bandai logo looked like so I grabbed the case from Digimon World for PS1, and your absolutely right even the colouring matches. I get that they probably wanted something for their new "purpose" but they really missed the mark.Both companies had superior minimalist logos pre-merger.
