Konami's big-screen member of the Concerto line: one 65-inch 4K Ultra HD display instead of stacked monitors. It was shown at G2E in October 2018 and went to market that December after trial placements. Players get two spin buttons, two cup holders and a lit multi-color button dash, and Konami sized the footprint to work in pods, banks or end-caps.
The Concerto Crescent is the curved single-screen member of Konami's Concerto family. Its 43-inch HD display stands in portrait orientation and curves toward the player, set in a black cabinet trimmed with side lighting. It sits on a standard upright base, so it needs no more floor space than a regular cabinet. Konami first showed it at G2E in Las Vegas in September 2016 and brought it to ICE London in February 2017. It runs on the KP3+ platform.
Concerto Stack is the single-screen member of the Concerto family, announced for G2E 2016: one 43-inch HD display turned to portrait on a standard upright base.

About Konami
Konami began on 21 March 1969, when Kagemasa Kozuki, now its chairman, began renting out and fixing jukeboxes in Toyonaka, Osaka. It incorporated in 1973 and turned to building arcade machines; Scramble and Frogger came out of its factories in 1981, and series such as Castlevania, Contra and Metal Gear followed.
Casino gaming came later. Konami set up its Australian gaming arm in 1996 and Konami Gaming, Inc. in the United States in January 1997, and the company describes itself as the first Japanese firm to enter the American gaming-machine market, in 2000. It built a Las Vegas office and slot factory in 2005 and opened a second Las Vegas plant in 2015.
Konami Gaming designs and builds its slots and its SYNKROS casino management system in Las Vegas, while the parent company, Konami Group, is headquartered in Ginza, Tokyo.
