Recreation of the font used in Capcom's "Ghouls 'n Ghosts" (1988). As some of the characters used a subtle amount of antialiasing in the game, this is a slightly reinterpreted version that contains some artistic liberty, particularly in the special characters. Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included. Note the heart, which has been mapped to "heavy black heart" (U+2764), and the !! "double exclamation mark" (U+203C).
Recreation of the pixel font from Konami's "Haunted Castle" (aka "Akumajō Dracula", 1988) - the arcade version successor of "Castlevania" (1986) on the NES.
The letters are identical to Konami's "Jail Break" (1986), but the numbers, punctuation marks and special characters are subtly different.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the large pixel font from Taito's "Darius" (1987), also reused in "Darius II" (1989).
In the tile set for "Darius", the "$" was missing a few pixels - this was addressed in "Darius II", and this recreation contains the dollar sign from the latter version.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Taken from the story screens from Capcom's 1989 arcade brawler Final Fight. (Interestingly, this font can also be found in the tile set from the Street Fighter 2 arcade game). Accented letters are completely custom.
Recreation of the primary large pixel font from Psikyo's "Strikers 1945" (1995), which was reused in the sequels "Strikers 1945 II" (1997), "Strikers 1999" (aka "Strikers 1945 III", 1999) and "Strikers 1945 Plus" (Neo-Geo, 1999), as well as other titles like "Gunbird 2" (1998), "Dragon Blaze" (2000) and "Gunbarich" (2001). Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
This is a clone of Samurai Aces (Large)Recreation of one of the pixel fonts from Cave's "DoDonPachi" (1997), reused in later games such as "ESP Ra.De." (1998) and "Progear" (2001). This is a refinement and expansion of one of the pixel fonts from the previous entry in the series, "DonPachi" (1995). Notable differences are the letters "A", "C", "G", "J", "V", "W", "X", "Z", "+" and the addition of a complete lowercase, extra arrows, "*", "<", ">". While in the previous game the font (one of at least 5 present in the game) was only used sparingly, this time around it seems that this font - while present in the game's ROM - was not used at all, which is surprising considering how much more complete it is.

Recreation of the primary pixel font from Taito's "Operation Wolf" (1987). With the exception of an additional ";", all other characters are recreated here as they are present in the game's tile set (despite their slightly odd/inconsistent vertical positioning).

"double exclamation mark" (U+203C), ?! "question exclamation mark" (U+2048) and "heavy black heart" (U+2764).
