1) Don't demand. No one likes demanding
2) You can make it yourself

Well if no one has seen yet, homemenu.co has a font change cia You can more than likely use that to put a different font in the cia.
The only thing in the CIA is a .ttf font of Avenir and a bcfnt of it so it should be easy

It's a very manual process, and apparently not easily undone.

Totally converting the Undertale font to a BCFNT when I get home. Sounds like fun to me.

What gives? I extract the alleged system fonts CIA (0004009B00010402.cia?) and I only find some _LZ.bin files. Is this the wrong CIA, perhaps?

Wrong TID, according to 3DBrew.

(The first half looks fine, though)

Then in that case, it's not in my 10.3 update pack. -_-
Time for me to do some searching!

EDIT: Okay, so it seems that 0004009B00014002 is only for the O3DS. If anyone knows what the N3DS's system font titleID is, that'd be great.

Okay, so I managed to get custom fonts working now! I never knew that 0004009B00014002 could be installed to N3DS, regardless of there not even being a 0004009B00014002 installed in the first place. Silly me.

Anyway, at some users' requests, I tested out Comic Sans on the 3DS and here's the result: (the font's pretty tiny, imo...)

I know this isn't new... but it certainly shows us that we could do a lot more on the 3DS than meets the eye...

btw, sorry I can't really share the font CIA with you guys who wanted it, as it no-doubt probably has copyrighted data from the CTR SDK font converter application.

Thanks a ton, I've been trying to find where on earth I can find the default font. I guess I'll try installing it now..

@Voxel Studios, could you try the GameCube font and post screens please?

Do you mean this type of font?

 

[Deleted User]

If you did mean that font, then unfortunately you are in for a big shock!

When i figure out how to do it i'm looking forward to getting this one...

Look at this pastebin post. It might help you accomplish that: http://pastebin.com/wu0E81hF

Yeah, i found that pastebin. Just a bit busy recently so i'm waiting until I have a free afternoon to understand what i'm doing. Don't suppose you could give it a go like above please? (I know you don't want to share files - Copyright SDK stuff)

Sure I can!

Actually, instead of using the runescape font, I'm gonna use the font that FE:if uses in the credits and stuff.

@jonnytron, it's not that bad if I say so myself... for some reason, the font can be either too big, overlap too much in places, or be squashed together... but overall, it's okay.

Thanks, yeah the kerning seems a bit weird in 'Miiverse' as well. Overall though it looks OK. Theres another version i found that was made by nintendo of america that i hope will work better when i try it (it seems a bit smaller among other things)... might look into editing the sizes of characters.

I would suck dick for a properly edited version of the Home Menu that uses the Earthbound font. Or the classic GB Pokémon font. That would be neat.
