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

Major usage

Classic Super Mario typeface

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 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.

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.

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 single Super Mario typeface, used for logos, menus, HUDs, and other text across the Super Mario franchise.

Modern Super Mario Bros. typeface

The modern Super Mario Bros. typeface is first seen in New Super Mario Bros., based on the logo for Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, which is in turn based on the logo for the Super Mario All-Stars version of Super Mario Bros. 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

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).
