About this palette

Nintendo (founded 1889 as a hanafuda card maker) has used variations on the same red since the 1980s — currently #E60012. The wordmark sits within a red oval. Sub-brands (Switch, Mario, Zelda) get their own colors, but Nintendo as a corporate identity stays mono-red.

Copy as code

Every token name carries the brand, so two brands can share one stylesheet.
