Original NES font used in many classic Nintendo Entertainment System game cartridges, including Super Mario Bros (1985), Mach Rider (1985), Excitebike (1985), Metroid (1986), The Legend Of Zelda (1986), and Castlevania (1987). Includes several alternate characters.

The NES font is based on the original video arcade game font created by Lyle Rains for Atari's "Sprinter 2" in 1976. By the late 1970s, other video game companies began using and modifying the characters for their own arcade games:

The Video Arcade Game Font - Solid
Awesome—great attention to detail!
Thanks, KyleReinfeld ! (And a much belated thanks to Asuna Yuuki !)
The K is not accurate, at least when compared with The Legend of Zelda. The top K is made with the font and the bottom is from the game.
@sss_ohio - You are correct, and that's why I located the alternate "K" from the Legend Of Zelda in the Ç position. ;^)
:D Good Bro
Great job! Thank you very much! Very grateful

Good job! You are a real fontstruct champion!
