Box for the Famicom 3D System









From Wikipedia:

The Famicom 3D System is a Japan-exclusive accessory for the Nintendo Family Computer released in 1987.

The "3D" in the 3D System logo and icon is based on Earth. Other text is set in ITC Avant Garde Gothic. Model numbers on the device/s appear to be set in Microgramma. System-N is the name of a digital font made around 1998 by Nendo that replicates some of the type seen here (Japanese: ファミリー コンピュータ スリーディー システム) and on other Nintendo products, but the original probably went under a different name. The promotional flyer also features Helvetica. Some of the Japanese text, appearing on both the box and flyer, appears to be set in Ishii Hoso Mincho from Shaken. The fonts used for the remaining Japanese are currently unidentified.
