                     for the Year Ending March 31, 2005
 
                (Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo, Inc.)


Konami Corporation hereby announces that its subsidiary, Konami Computer
Entertainment Tokyo, Inc. (the 'Company') revised its Japanese GAAP earnings
forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2005 ('fiscal 2005'), which were
originally released in its Summary of Unconsolidated Results for the Six Months
Ended September 30, 2004 on November 9, 2004.



1. Revised earnings forecasts for fiscal 2005 (from April 1, 2004 to March 31, 2005)


                                                                                (Millions of yen)

Financial results for the year ended March 31, 2004


2. Reasons for the revision


During fiscal 2005, order of WORLD SOCCER WINNING ELEVEN 8 LIVEWARE EVOLUTION
which will be released on March 24, 2005 has been at a high level and repeated
shipments of previously released titles remained favorable. As a result, net
revenues, ordinary income and net income are expected to surpass our previous
forecasts for fiscal 2005, and the Company revised its earnings forecasts
upwards as shown above.



3. Cash paid due to merger

The Company announced that Konami would pay 39.5 yen per share of the Company
due to merger. However, we changed the amount from 39.5 yen to 82.00 yen per
share of the Company after consultation within the subject companies. The amount
of cash paid may be finally decided due to the financial results fixed in the
end of April, 2005 and it is computed based on the figures of 50% of net income
less interim dividend.

Cautionary Statement with Respect to Forward-Looking Statements:


Statements made in this press release with respect to the Company's current
plans, estimates, strategies and beliefs, including the above forecasts
regarding the Company's earnings and dividend for fiscal 2005 are forward-
looking statements about the future performance of the Company. These statements
are based on management's assumptions and beliefs in light of information
currently available to it and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on
them. A number of important factors could cause actual results to be materially
different from and worse than those discussed in forward-looking statements.
Such factors include, but are not limited to: (i) changes in economic conditions
affecting our operations; (ii) fluctuations in currency exchange rates,
particularly with respect to the value of the Japanese yen, the U.S. dollar and
the Euro; (iii) our ability to continue to win acceptance of our products, which
are offered in highly competitive markets characterized by the continuous
introduction of new products, rapid developments in technology and subjective
and changing consumer preferences; (iv) our ability to successfully expand
internationally with a focus on our video game software business; (v) regulatory
developments and changes and our ability to respond and adapt to those changes;
and (vi) the outcome of contingencies.
