A faithful, authentic, all-caps, nostalgic 8-bit font based on 1st-party Nintendo Entertainment System games, such as Duck Hunt, Tetris, Dr. Mario, Clu Clu Land, Pinball, Gyromite, Baseball, Urban Champion, and of course, as the name says in the font, Super Mario Bros.!
Featuring a grand total of 1085 glyphs! If we do glyph number translation, 1085 translates to October 1985, back when the Nintendo Entertainment System first launched in North America!

The font used for dialogue in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, with international, Greek, and Cyrillic extensions.
NEW: Some characters added for Unicode 8.0. (Still waiting for FontStruct to provide SMP support.)
Color recreation of the pixel font used in Capcom's "Hyper Street Fighter 2 - The Anniversary Edition" (2004) - though it actually made its first appearance in "Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers" (1993).
This recreation uses the special TTF+SVG format, which currently has limited support.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
This is a clone of Hyper Street Fighter 2 Anniversary EditionA painstaking recreation of the font found in the notes of FAITH: The Unholy Trinity, one of my personal favorite games. Each letter, number, and most of the symbols were copied precisely from the notes, though I had to improvise on &+#@_<=>\^`{|}~
A well-known font from Duke Nukem 3D which is used in screens, menus, and placeable ingame sprites. This font came in two versions: "big" and "small". Both versions only have uppercase, so I put the small variant on the lowercase.
Since the original was a bitmap font which used multiple colors, I stuck to drawing the outlines. This lets you color them in how you like.
The small variant has its own symbols and numerals as well; most are already in this font, replacing the empty spaces left by the big variant. (Neither one has a complete symbol set, so I merged the best ones together.)
Original size: 10.5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)
