Looking for old classic NAMCO arcade fonts
I'm looking for the old classic 8x8 arcade coin-op fonts that were used in many 80's arcade games, and not only by NAMCO ones (Pacman, Galaga... or Arkanoid, Bubble Bobble, etc.) . I browsed Aminet but didn't find anything.
And before starting to draw these fonts by hand, I would like to know if someone has any clue if these fonts are available for the Amiga (and where I could find them ? |

Yes, this is what I have planned to do in case I can't find any arcade font already made.

Big-Byte: That font has been scaled, it's 447 x something weird. Easiest way is to run MAME, hit F4, right arrow until the font appears, F12 to save it. Done!
