Meaning and history

Dreamcast logo

The Dreamcast logo became iconic in its industry. A light typeface of the wordmark in black is complimented with an orange bold spiral on the top.

Emblem Dreamcast

But the Europeans do not know the  Dreamcast logo in orange. The brand had to change its logo color to blue for European version, as there was an issue with Tivola, a German company, which was using a similar orange swirl logo at that time.

Both blue and orange Dreamcast colors symbolize vitality, fun and joy, the main aim of any Game-industry product. Even today The Dreamcast Spiral is considered to be one of the most recognizable logos in the industry, despite the fact, that the brand was on the market for just two years.

Font and color

The simple yet very modern and recognizable Dreamcast logotype, executed in a title case, is written in a custom typeface, which is pretty close to Alexon RR Light Regular and Arpona Light, with their full-shaped round letters and playfully flared ends of the bars.

The logotype is usually executed in black or dark gray colors, standing for confidence, strength, and competence. While the graphical part of the logo can be seen in two different shades of orange — a classic bright one, evoking a happy and pleasant feeling, and the darker version, closer to red, a symbol of passion and power.
