NES Console Controller Font by MrShrike NES Console Controller Font by MrShrike
No fancy preview for this font. If you're looking at this you probably already know what the font on the NES controllers looks like... this is practically a perfect clone.

This is designed to be used for NES related works, so all the time has been spent creating the capital letters.

lower case and numbers are supported by this font, but the lower case will still be capital, and I just didn't spend much time on the numbers.

Also contains a "CAD" version that will be desplayed at the exact height specified.

no hosting this file on other websites without my permission or I will have your head :)
(use it however you like, for money or not, I don't care.)

Update10/25/12: aparently the "normal" font category is gone. Switching it to misc.

Awesome work! Thanks for sharing, I'm making a brand identity manual design for my own little business, can I use it for the titles please? (I already read the other comments that says it's a free font but I wanted to ask anyway :)

I´d like to use your font for a game-show. Do you need any proof or payments for that later on, or isthis font free for donations whenever I have something?
Please write me any info you´d like to give me about it via Ephraim.W@gmx.de

Thanks a lot and keep up the good work :D

I must be an idiot... how do I download this? I can't find the link on this page! I even created an account with deviant art but I still can't seem to download the font, I just keep landing on this same page with the preview...

Try the download button on the top-right of the page.  It should bring you to a zip file.

this is helpful but there the letters only match the start select and AB buttons on the controller. The actual word nintendo has a capital N, and the rest of the letters are lowercase and do not match this font. Still this helps out a lot

Amazing font. I'm working on putting together a page for my resume/portfolio/blog/anything else that I put on this website. It's nothing specifically gaming, or even NES, related, so I thought I'd ask for permission.

In the future, I'd like to start accepting freelance opportunities through this site, which is another reason I thought I'd ask. :)

Love this font! Just thought you'd like to see I used it on a rudimentary website that I host from my Minecraft server. [link] (The server is a computer inside an NES, hence the theme)

Also, I like your Ponygeddon image. Ponies everywhere!

This is brilliant. I am just beginning a business refurbishing NES's, and writing an instructional eBook on how to clean and fix them. Your font will be perfect for my book and website.

I know you said that anyone can use this however they like, but would you like some credit in my book once it is done?

:iconmrshrike:
MrShrike Featured By Owner Apr 10, 2012
Sure! It's no big deal, but having my name in a book would be pretty sweet.

Can you give me a link to your website? I've been getting into repairing old electronics recently and it sounds like it could be helpful.

Retro-Specs Featured By Owner Apr 10, 2012
Thanks! And sure, I'll be glad to credit you. You can let me know later in a note if you want to be credited as "MrShrike" or using your real name. Of course, I can post a link to your gallery in the credits as well if you like.

The website itself is.... non-existent at the moment. I have done some work on it but it is far from ready to post. I'm concentrating on the book now, actually - working on page 10 tonight. Your font has been invaluable so far - I use it for the chapter headings and some other sections.

Here is my mock-up of what the pages will look like: [link]
The actual pages so far are a little better put together.

That's my only font so just a link to this account would be cool, nothing special.

I'm glad the font has found a purpose. I'll make sure to check out your work once it's done.

I've got a ton of broken systems from yard sales which I now have the skills to work on so this summer will be full of projects.

Retro-Specs Featured By Owner Apr 15, 2012
Sure thing, will do.

I'll let you know, send you a free copy.

I'll be doing the same this summer, gathering systems wherever I can get them. Probably advertise that I'll pay (relatively low) for NESs, even if they're dirty and don't seem to work. My next step will be attempting to spray paint them. Probably start easy - one all-gold system, and put it on eBay with a copy of Zelda.

Would it be possible to request to use this font for a logo on my website for a game podcast? I figured I'd ask although you made it clear not to use it.

Sorry I just meant not to host a download to it. Using it is perfectly fine. I'll change the wording to make it more clear in a bit. Feel free to use it any way you want!

Hello MrShrike,

I was wondering if I would be allowed to use this font for a my little portfolio I wanted to start up called Camtography. So far I only have my domain name registered. And a slowly growing portfolio, that can be found on facebook. Right now I'm just bugging friends I know to come have their pictures taken hehe.

Thank you :)
