The first ''Super Mario'' font is an uneven sans serif typeface designed by [[Nintendo]] in 1988. It is used for the logos and, later, interfaces of ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' to ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]''.

Though mostly the same, a second version of the font was designed following the release of ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', which would take over as the primary version from then on. It lacked a fully defined character set, which lead to many different interpretations. This remained the case for the font even after the overhaul, likely inciting the shift over to the modern ''Super Mario'' font.
Though mostly the same, a second version of the font was designed following the release of ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', which would take over as the primary version from then on. It lacked a fully defined character set, which led to many different interpretations. In particular, the font does not have a consistent design for Japanese hiragana, katakana, or kanji. This remained the case for the font even after the overhaul, likely inciting the shift over to the modern ''Super Mario'' font.


Used in tandem with other fonts throughout the 2000's, it was fully replaced with the modern font with the release of ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', being last seen on the logo for ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'', albeit an [[List of Paper Mario: Sticker Star pre-release and unused content|early]] logo for ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' used a design partially based on this typeface before being changed to the modern ''Super Mario'' typeface for the final release.{{br}}

This design was used from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' until ''Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games'' for the Nintendo 3DS, appearing throughout games on the [[Nintendo 64]], [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]], and [[Wii]]. Some of its distinct features are the pointed, obelisk-shaped "A", the flat, wide "E", and the overall stocky, top-larger-than-bottom measures, giving it a more whimsical appearance if compared to earlier ''Super Mario'' typefaces, which were designed in the opposite way.

It has been requested that more images be uploaded for this article. Remove this notice only after the additional images have been added. Specific(s): Illustrate all fonts listed

This is a list of typefaces used in games and related media within the Super Mario franchise.

Internal and related designs[edit]

Classic Super Mario typeface[edit]

Comparison between the two versions of the classic Super Mario font, for the list of fonts page.
Comparison of the two versions

The first Super Mario font is an uneven sans serif typeface designed by Nintendo in 1988. It is used for the logos and, later, interfaces of Super Mario games from Super Mario Bros. 3 to Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Though mostly the same, a second version of the font was designed following the release of Super Mario 64, which would take over as the primary version from then on. It lacked a fully defined character set, which led to many different interpretations. In particular, the font does not have a consistent design for Japanese hiragana, katakana, or kanji. This remained the case for the font even after the overhaul, likely inciting the shift over to the modern Super Mario font.

Used in tandem with other fonts throughout the 2000's, it was fully replaced with the modern font with the release of Super Mario 3D Land, being last seen on the logo for Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, albeit an early logo for Paper Mario: Sticker Star used a design partially based on this typeface before being changed to the modern Super Mario typeface for the final release.

Modern Super Mario typeface[edit]

The current logo of the Super Mario franchise
The current Super Mario logo introduced in Super Mario 3D Land uses the modern Super Mario typeface.

Demonstration.

The modern Super Mario typeface is an uneven sans serif typeface designed by Nintendo in the early 2010s. It was experimented with by Nintendo in the lead up to the release of the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, with the first use of the modern font appearing in the spine art of Super Mario Galaxy 2. Early versions appeared in games such as Mario Sports Mix, featuring a character set closer to the classic font. The font in its current form was officially introduced with the release of Super Mario 3D Land in 2011 and has since become the singular Super Mario typeface, used for logos, menus, HUDs, and other text across the Super Mario franchise.

The font is officially called "MARIO Font" and was created in collaboration with Fontworks, a foundry whose fonts are often used in Nintendo games. Unlike the previous font, this font has full character sets for hiragana and katakana, as well as some kanji and Cyrillic characters. The font has been revised at least three times; the latest revision of the font is version 3.203, revised on August 20, 2019.[1]

Modern Super Mario Bros. typeface[edit]

The modern Super Mario Bros. typeface is first seen in New Super Mario Bros.. This is based on the in-game logo for Super Mario Bros., which was in turn used as the logotype for the Super Mario All-Stars version of Super Mario Bros., as well as Super Mario Bros. Deluxe. It is geometrical with vertical stems with circular joints for shapes such as "A" and "M" and horizontal strokes that end before meeting left-hand vertical stems. Super Mario Bros. Wonder introduces a lowercase set of characters for this typeface.

Other than every New Super Mario Bros. game logo as well as Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition and Super Mario Run, it is also seen in Mario Super Sluggers and Super Mario Bros. Wonder for display text, as well as in The Super Mario Bros. Movie for the Super Mario Bros. Plumbing logo.

Classic HUD typeface[edit]

List of all characters in the Classic HUD typeface
All characters in the font

This design was used from Super Mario 64 until Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games for the Nintendo 3DS, appearing throughout games on the Nintendo 64, GameCube, and Wii. Some of its distinct features are the pointed, obelisk-shaped "A", the flat, wide "E", and the overall stocky, top-larger-than-bottom measures, giving it a more whimsical appearance if compared to earlier Super Mario typefaces, which were designed in the opposite way.

This typeface was primarily used for in-game text outside of dialogue (i.e HUDs and menus). Given the lack of standardization on the first Super Mario typeface, this one was also often used for placeholder logos, at times when new characters for the first font could not be drawn. It was also used for the logo of Super Mario Sunshine.

Paper Mario typeface[edit]

A design similar to the classic HUD design above, used for in-game display text in Paper Mario games up to Paper Mario: Sticker Star.

It is used for the interface in Super Mario Maker, Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS, and Super Mario Maker 2. The initial variant of the font was titled "MARIO30th" and lacked lowercase characters. It was revised in 2018 to include lowercase letters; this new version is named "MARIOMAKER". The latest revision of the font is version 1.3, revised on November 28, 2018.[1]

Super Mario 256[edit]

Super Mario 256 is a fanmade font designed to replicate the modern Super Mario typeface, and was created by DaFont user fsuarez913.[3] The typeface was first published online in 2012, and quickly became widespread.[4] Compared to the font it imitates, Super Mario 256 is slightly bolder and wider, and several characters are drawn at different angles.

Despite its nature as an unofficial fan project, Super Mario 256 has made its way into official media on multiple occasions. In particular, the covers for Super Mario Manga Mania and Super Mario Compact Disco – 35th Anniversary Edition, the LEGO Super Mario set "Nabbit at Toad's Shop", the logo for LEGO Super Mario Goal and the in-game score, a few social media advertisements for Super Mario 3D World and the Nintendo Switch remake of Super Mario RPG, and the Japanese Square Enix strategy guide for Super Mario RPG on Nintendo Switch feature the typeface.[5]
