Recreation of the pixel font from Konami's "SD Snatcher" (1990) on the MSX2.
The font includes an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana characters. In the game's tile set, the dakuten and handakuten are stored in a separate tile. In this recreation, characters that use them are pre-combined into a single glyph. The dakuten and handakuten are not 8 pixels wide, and when used in game, they only take up as much width as necessary, making the Japanese text variable width/proportional. The latin characters, however, are all monospaced.
The game also includes a large number of Japanese idiographs. These have not been included in this recreation.
Except for the idiographs, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the pixel font from Konami's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project" (1991, released in Japan as "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Manhattan Project") on the Famicom/NES.
This tile set originally included only a partial set of hiragana and katakana characters - these have been extended a bit in this recreation to make it more useful, but it's still not 100% complete. In the tile set, the dakuten and handakuten are separate tiles. In this recreation, characters that use them are pre-combined into a single glyph.
The original tile set was, oddly, also missing the latin "Q". This has been added here for completeness.
Apart from this, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the hiragana and katakana pixel fonts from Konami's "Akumajō Densetsu" (aka "Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse", 1987) on the Nintendo Famicom.
This font is only used on the title screen, intro story crawl, and dialog boxes - otherwise, the game uses a standard "Nintedoid" type font like https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/676742/nintendoid_1. In contrast, the western release uses a single stylised font throughout - see https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/682911/castlevania_3_1.
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.
The game also uses a handful of actual kanji characters - however, due to their limited number and usefulness, these have not been added in this recreation.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
There was no glyphs latin on Patrick H. Lauke Redux's font so go check it out: https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/1644314/akumajo-densetsu-nes
I used to clone them, so I can help Patrick Lauke to complete this font with letters on it.
This is a clone of Akumajō Densetsu (NES)The ubiquitous video game font standard, likely designed by Lyle Rains of Atari; first used in 1976's "Sprint 2" by Atari, and then on until well into the 1990s. Used by most video arcade game companies, including (but not limited to): Namco, Williams Electronics, Irem, Atari, Konami, Bally-Midway, Taito, Nintendo and Sega. The lower case characters are from several Atari video arcade games from 1984-1987. Plenty of alternate characters -- variations used in conjunction with the standard font, all selected from a variety of MAME32 game roms.

Recreation of the primary pixel font from Konami's "Akumajō Special: Boku Dracula-kun" (1990) on the Nintendo Famicom. It includes an almost complete set of hiragana and katakana characters.
Note that in the game, the dakuten and handakuten are rendered as a character on the preceding line, while this recreation includes characters with these diacritics in the correct position in the correct character codepoints themselves - for this reason, the characters themselves are taller than 8 pixels.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.

Recreation of the pixel font from Konami's "Wai Wai World" (1988) on the Nintendo Famicom.

Apart from these changes, only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
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 1a custom variant of the pixel font used in konami's "batman returns" (1993) on the SNES, modified from monospaced to proportional while trying to maintain the quirky ligatures built into the monospaced original. this version expands (and tweaks) the punctuation characters present in the actual game's tile set.

Note that because the font is now taller than 8 pixels due to the dakuten/handakuten characters, these will only line up if explicitly set to an 8 pixel high grid.
Only the characters present in the game's tile set have been included.
Recreation of the katakana pixel font from Konami's "Dracula II: Noroi no Fūin" (aka "Castlevania II: Simon's Quest", 1987) on the Nintendo Famicom.
While the title screens use the same latin font as the western releases (see Castlevania 2 - https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/682905/castlevania_2_1), this font is used in the game itself (including the dialog boxes and inventory/menus) .
