Title: Entertainment System Font!?
Post by Kreese on 23. Nov 2006 at 08:38

I am looking for the font that Nintendo use for ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM:

I am also looking for Adobe Illustrator pictures that are NES-realted... Mario, Link etc. Does anyone know a site that has some?

The closest one around is called Pretendo font. It is on most of the major free font sites. I looked everwhere for one when I was building my 8ft NES, and this one is pretty close. Some of the letters are slightly off, but it is pretty decent.

Yeah I've got that font, It's quite good for doing Nintendo logos, but the other font was the one I was looking for.

Both NESWORLD and SIMPLYNES ( http://simplynes.emucamp.com ) use the font for their logos, perhaps made by hand in Photoshop, not using any TTF-font. I don't know... :(

I can only speak for myself... yes, the NW logo was made by hand in photoshop :-)
