Recently, while reading up on old/obsolete console systems, I noticed that the font used in Nintendo/Namco/Sega's Triforce system's logo (see also wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Triforce) was pretty much the same that Blizzard used in their Overwatch text logo.

Compare:



Obviously, there are slight differences here and there, but the base font is pretty much the same.

Does anyone know by chance what the base font is?
I've checked WhatTheFont and Fontsquirrel, but neither site's font finder has been of any help.

The Trifoce logo was definitely made in house by either Sega, Namco, or Nintendo. Possibly created by all 3 at the same time around 2001 during it's development.

You won't be able to find a font for it.

The best you can do is find a similar style font. You will never be able to find the exact font.

As far as Overwatch goes, that's also a custom logo too, not a font.

The creators of these logos may have started off with a generic font and tweaked it to achieve a custom look. You will have to do the same if that's the case.

Unless you can talk to the art team you wont know.
