Summary

Description
English: Nintendo logo, SVG format. In 2016, Nintendo phased out their grey variant as the company's main logo and re-introduced their red color, when Tatsumi Kimishima took the company helm, Nintendo's logo was changed to white-on-red. The grey logo, however, continues to be officially used as its corporate image.

Article 2 of Japanese copyright law defines that a work is eligible for copyright when it is a production in which thoughts or sentiments are expressed in a creative way and which falls within the literary, scientific, artistic or musical domain. Japanese courts have decided that to be copyrightable, a text logo needs to have artistic appearance that is worth artistic appreciation. Logos composed merely of geometric shapes and texts are also not copyrightable in general. See COM:CRT/Japan#Threshold of originality for more information.
