Pixel font recreation from Konami's classic "Gradius" (1986). A variation on the generic Nintendo font, most notable in the letters V, Y and in some of the numeral. This font includes the special characters from my standard Nintendoid 1 to make it more generally useful, and for the first time includes the strange "horizontal semicolon" used on most of the early Nintendo games' start screens.
EDIT August 2019: it appears I was off by one pixel on the "horizontal semicolon". Fixed now.
This is a clone of Nintendoid 1Recreation of the pixel font used on the title screen of Enix's "Dragon Quest" (1986) on the NES, later released in North America as "Dragon Warrior" (1989). In the tile set, the "5" was missing one pixel - this has been fixed here. Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Nintendo's cartridge re-release of "Zelda no Densetsu: The Hyrule Fantasy" (1986), renamed/numbered as "Zelda no Densetsu 1: The Hyrule Fantasy" (1994), on the Famicom.
The re-release uses that same alphanumeric characters of the North America/Europe release of "The Legend of Zelda" (1987), but otherwise all characters remain the same. Note that the dakuten is used in the initial story screen as a double-quote character (which oddly is also the case in the North America/Europe version, even though these have a separate double-quote character).
This font includes a full set of katakana characters. In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles, positioned in the line above the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

This is a clone of Jikuu Yuuden: DebiasRecreation of the pixel font from Sega's "Gigas" (1986).
Oddly, the game was then bootlegged/modified by Nihon Systems as "Omega" (1986), though it appears that it was never widely released.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the main pixel font from Kaneko/Taito's "Prebillian" (1986).
This recreation uses the special TTF+SVG format, which currently has limited support. For a monochrome version, see this recreation.
In the game, the colours in the font are generally cycling. This recreation uses one specifically pleasing combination of colours during these constant transitions.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
This is a clone of PrebillianRecreation of the built-in font found in the old Thomson line of 8-bit computers (Thomson MO5, MO5E, MO5NR, MO6, T9000, TO7, TO7/70, TO8, TO8D, TO9, TO9+ and Olivetti Prodest PC128).
This recreation combines the character sets found in the various localised versions. A few accented characters have been added to make the set more complete, but note that there are no acute/grave/circumflex accent versions for uppercase letters.
Apart from that, only the characters present in the original font (that I could find through emulation) have been included.
***APRIL 2023 UPDATE***
A few more characters added and spacing of the "I" letters and their variants readjusted... Also, some characters redesigned... More to come...
An attempted recreaction of the Atari Games variation of the "Joystix", "Emulator" and "Emulogic" text fonts as used in-game and during tests from 1984 to 1998... Used in games such as Gauntlet, Xybots, Pit Fighter and Hard Drivin', among various others -- albeit with some custom deviations and extra characters NOT used in the actual text style itself... Also, upon further research, spacing between the actual letters vary by individual game (based on internal alpha tests)...

This is a clone of Space Harrier (Original)Recreation of the pixel font from Enix's "Dragon Quest" (1986) on the NES, later released in North America as "Dragon Warrior" (1989) (but with a different main font, obviously).
In the game's tileset, the dakuten and handakuten for the hiragana and katakana are separate tiles (with one exception), and positioned in the line above the character they relate to. In this recreation, these characters are pre-combined into a single glyph.
Apart from these changes, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Presenting to you... BANDAI JAPANESE! Home of the font branch!
The font includes a complete set of hiragana and katakana characters. Even though I managed to see Famicom Jump by NBABABAFONTNES, and I created this one even more super duper better! Since I don't have time to make Hiragana Fonts and Katakana fonts! Here are the similarities to this font: Dragonball 3: Gokuuden, Saint Seiya: Ougon Densetsu, Saint Seiya: Ougon Densetsu Kanketsu Hen, Devilman, Dragon Ball: Daimaou Fukkatsu and Dragon Ball: Shenlong no Nazo (or in Translated: Dragon Ball: Mystery of Shenlong), and Famicom Jump: Eiyuu Retsuden, (except Devilman for Namco).
I'd like to say I branching on the video game font because all of the bandai games are japanese, so I did like to recommed this font to all of you for the best luck, similar to MMRock9.
The "Bandai Japanese" Font was created on Thursday, 19 January, and finished on Monday, February 13.
