Recreation of the pixel font from Nintendo's "Donkey Kong Classics" (1988) on the NES, which combines the fonts from "Donkey Kong" (1981) and "Donkey Kong Jr." (1982).
The one distinctive feature of this font are the "G" and the exclamation mark. Note that in the original "Donkey Kong" (1981) the period/full stop and the ".," (mapped here to the ";") were one pixel higher than in the "Classics" version. In addition, this recreation includes the maths symbols ("+", "-", "×", "÷") from "Donkey Kong Jr. Math" (1983). "Donkey Kong Jr. Math" and "Donkey Kong 3" (1983) also used this same font, except they changed the "8".
Other than the additions of the maths symbols, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recration of the pixel font from Advance Communication Company's infamous "Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" (1988) on the NES. As the set of characters is incomplete in the game's tile set, this recreation was expanded to include custom "Q", "X", "Z" and additional punctuation. Note the lowercase "r", used for the "Dr." on the game's title screen.
Recreation of the primary pixel font from Infinity/Imagineer's "The Battle of Olympus" (1988) on the NES.
This font combines the Japanese (which lacks a latin lowercase) and North American/European release fonts. It includes a full set of hiragana and 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.

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.

***SEPTEMBER 2020 UPDATE***
Some minor alterations to small letters... Additional letters coming soon...
Formerly known as "Fontality Caps Basic", this is an emulated font using letters similar to those seen in startup test sweeps of the old Midway and Williams video arcade games, such as Mortal Kombat, Narc, NBA Jam and Smash TV, among many others. The original 26-letter basic alphabet, some of the more common symbols and the numbers for the most part are replicas while the rest of them are made up to visually contour with the styles of their original parenting letters. I apologize I couldn't be any more accurate. But it's because no game as far as I know has an option in any of the tests to see a list of numbers, letters and symbols. So I had to improvise any way I could. I've been wanting a font like this but the only means of getting one as far as I know, was to make one myself!!!

Recreation of the pixel font from Jaleco's "Legend of Makai" (aka "Makai Densetsu", 1988).
This recreation includes a practically complete set of hiragana and katakana. In the original, the dakuten and handakuten are separate characters on a separate line of text - in this recreation, they have been included in their respective characters, which results in the overall line height being 11 pixels rather than 8 pixels.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Rare/Nintendo's "Cobra Triangle" (1988) on the NES. Fairly standard, but with some interesting details in the "Q", "S", "Y", "5" and "9". Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font used in Tecmo's "Ninja Gaiden" (aka "Shadow Warriors", 1988). The quote marks and apostrophe (only used for the "Winners don't use drugs" screen from the US release) have been slightly modified for a better overall fit (on the FBI screen, these are set on a separate line above the text, so the original characters were set below the baseline). Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
