Info: Konami was founded in Osaka, Japan, in 1969 by Kagemasa Kōzuki as a jukebox repair and rental company. In the late 1970s, it entered the arcade market and quickly rose to prominence during the golden age of video games. By the 1980s, Konami had become a major force in arcades worldwide, releasing iconic titles like Frogger and Scramble.
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Konami established itself as one of the most influential developers and publishers in the home console market, particularly on the NES, Super Nintendo, and PlayStation platforms. Its games were known for their innovation, challenge, and memorable music. Legendary franchises such as Castlevania, Contra, Gradius, and Metal Gear emerged during this period, cementing Konami’s place in gaming history.
In the 2000s, Konami diversified into sports games, most notably with the Pro Evolution Soccer (PES / Winning Eleven) series, which gained worldwide popularity. At the same time, Konami created some of the most influential survival horror games through the Silent Hill franchise.
In recent years, Konami has shifted much of its focus toward mobile games, pachinko machines, and other entertainment ventures, reducing its presence in console development. Nevertheless, its legacy remains globally significant, and many of its classic franchises continue to be celebrated by players and preserved through re-releases and collections.
