Konami Konami Slot Games

Konami is recognized as the fourth biggest video-game manufacturer in Japan. Following the poor performance of the arcade sector, Konami diversified and entered into the manufacture of slot machines. Since 1978, the company began to establish strong ties with several game developers in the US so that they could get a clear idea about what players were looking for. Konami had the finances as well as the expertise required to turn the venture into a success.

Apart from its involvement in the online gambling industry, Konami is also popular for manufacturing arcade cabinets, arcade games, and trading cards. It also operates physical fitness and health clubs. At the moment, Konami is one of the most renowned companies not only for its gambling equipment, but also for its gaming equipment. The popularity of the company is such that you can ask any teenager about their favourite video game and there is a good chance that the reply will be one of the games produced by the ingenious engineers at Konami. In addition, there is also a good chance that gamblers across the world have probably had a go at one of Konami’s slot machines without having any idea that it was produced by this powerhouse of gaming and gambling equipment.

A Brief History of the Company 

Kagamasa Kouzuki founded Konami in 1969. The firm was initially a repair business and jukebox rental in Osaka, Japan. Its name is derived from the names of its founders – Kagamasa Kouzuki (CEO and Chairman), Yoshinobu Nakama (partner), and the other partner, Tatuso Miyasako. The meaning of ‘Konami’ is ‘little waves,’ and the company began designing arcade games as early as 1973. Super Cobra and Scramble were released in 1981 and both games achieved greater success in Japan in comparison to that enjoyed in the US. Computer software was already being marketed by Konami by 1982, before the partners decided to enter into the home game consoles sector.

Over the years, Konami has designed and manufactured some truly fantastic slot machines. The company’s headquarters were moved to Vegas in 2005, which is where it started producing slot machines. Prior to relocation, the company was based in Tokyo, but also had US bases in Nevada as well as in California to gain a better understanding of the gaming requirements of American players. Konami also has a base in Sydney, Australia because of the huge interest in gaming and real money slots in the country.
