Sumo Digital

1st Logo (2004-2009)
Logo: The logo appears from white, zooming in with blurry overshadowing. It reads "SUMO" in black decorative font, and "DIGITAL" on a red plate below. There is a website name: "www.sumo-digital.com".

Variants:
 * After 2007, the logo was enchanced with the F9E byline.
 * The DS version has "HANDHELD" written instead of "DIGITAL", and the hand symbol near the logo.

Technique: 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: Western motives with flute and drums.

Availability: Seen on OutRun 2006, Virtua Tennis 3 and some other games for PSP.

2nd Logo (2010-2016)


Logo: Black streaks splatter here and there, and we follow them in close-up. The picture zooms and becomes the logo, where above old familiar SUMO pattern is an image of monstrous sumoist with red eyes. The logo then undraws and clears to black, leaving only shining eyes.

Technique: 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: Sounds of paint splattering.

Availability: Seen on games from the time, notable appearances include Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing and Virtua Tennis 2009.

3rd Logo (2016-)


Logo: On a black background, we see paint streaks rapidly striking on the screen. While we zoom out, they rapidly splatter with the symbols in different colors until the logo with the infra red "S" on top arrives.

Technique: 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: Whooshing sounds come from the paint streaks.

Availability: Appears on newer games, such as Snakepass, Team Sonic Racing, and Hood: Outlaws and Legends.
