1965–1970

1967–1975

By this point, Nintendo's wordmark began to bear, more or less, a resemblance to what it is today.

1968–1970

This logo was shaped as a hexagon and was used on toys until 1970.

1970–1975

In 1970, the shape was changed to rounded rectangle, which would become the main design for over 40 years.

1975–present

Only use on copyright notice and Game Boy boot up

1977–1995

Starting in 1977, the racetrack was added to the logo to surround the text.

1983–2008

This logo was adopted when Nintendo became an electronic game company since 1983. The current logo is a little bolder and the racetrack fits tighter around the text when compared to the earlier version.

2008–2016

In 2008, the logo's color scheme was changed from red to gray. The red logo can still be seen in some cases.

2016–present

In 2016, Nintendo phased out their gray variant as the company's main logo and re-introduced the red colour, but as a background colour against a white variant of their logo. This mirrors the branding of the Nintendo Switch where the logo is normally contained within a red box.
