AlphaDream Corporation (2001) AlphaDream Corporation (2003)

Logo: On a white background, the "ALPHADREAM" text in big bold rounded letters, fades in along with the smaller word "CORPORATION", positioned below it. We then see a purple dot fade in above the text. Two more purple dots connected by small lines then emerge from it. A red dot then slides from the dot on the top-right corner of the logo, stopping in the bottom-left corner of the logo.

Variant: On Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time (and possibly other DS games by this company). The logo appears on the top screen, and the Nintendo logo is on the touch screen. Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story also does this, but the AlphaDream logo is on the touch screen, and the Nintendo is on the top screen.

FX/SFX: The text fading in, followed by the dot's animation.

Music/Sounds: None.

Music/Sounds Variant: On Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, Mario, Luigi, Baby Mario, and Baby Luigi all say "Nintendo" simultaneously (as mentioned above, the Nintendo logo is shown at the same time). A similar thing is also done on Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, but this time either Mario & Luigi, or Bowser (varies on start-up) will walk up the screen and say the "Nintendo" name.

Availability: Current, It was first appeared on Koto Battle for the Game Boy Color, and was used on Mario & Luigi games throughout the era.The logo is strangely absent from Mario & Luigi: Dream Team (or Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Brothers in PAL regions).

Editor's Note: This logo is a favorite of fans of the Mario & Luigi series.
