No digital matches. It's likely custom brush lettering, originally drawn by a lettering artist for use on SNES box cover art and later reused for the N64 covers. Fairly common to find lots of custom brush lettering in 80s and 90s media - action film posters and comics in particular.
Coliseum by Thomas E. Harvey. Based on Koloss (1923) by Jakob Erbar.
Modula Sans Bold, scaled horizontally to appear wider.
It's custom lettering by Dan Perri, drawn in a vanishing point perspective and intended for the opening crawl of the 1977 film. I can say that Futura Display and Compacta Black were seemingly used in some of the other marketing for Star Wars, including some of the international logos drawn to match the style of Perri's logo. Whether or not those exact typefaces were the basis for Perri's original logo is not discernible. Below is an example of how it could have been done.

"A New Hope" and "The Empire Strikes Back" use News Gothic Extra Condensed (1908, not currently digitized). Current digital versions of News Gothic Extra Condensed are not quite the same and much less condensed.
A digital option might be Jefferson Gothic (1916), which was Monotype's alternate version of News Gothic Extra Condensed. Just stick to Jefferson Gothic's uppercase as the lowercase consists of alternates not seen in the original News Gothic Extra Condensed.

https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/75748/news-gothic-extra-condensed It is essentially custom lettering, originally created for the 1959 book of the same name. Aside from the subtle differences, Compacta wasn't released until 1963.
A much closer possibility is Filmotype Glenlake, originally released in 1955. It's not exact but very close. Maybe something they had typeset and then modified. Of course, there were also a number of similar gaspipe lettering styles that a decent lettering artist could easily whip up too, so it's hard to say for certain.

BD Doomed with stencil portions filled. Used to be available as a freebie. Don't be fooled by the Typedifferent page sample, that's BD Doomed Squareup - an alternate angular version of the same type design. Just make sure both are included if you order it.
Weiss Titling is only used in the opening title sequence of the film. The poster logo could be based on a typeface known as Argonaut - possibly the Semi-Condensed weight. Argonaut had several variants released by Headliners International. I believe the only digital version (bold weight) is known as OPTI Althea from the early 1990's Castcraft Software OPTIFont Collection. Several characters are slightly different (R, T) but others (C, S, X) are almost identical to Argonaut typeface specimens. Another possibility might be Elmont, which is also very close but further specimens would be needed to confirm that it matches. Elmont has no digital version.

Streets Of London by Lazydogs Typefoundry is another digital version.
[EDIT: Linked suggested font in first post (Nov 09, 2020 at 03:12) should read Kindersley Grand Arcade and not Streets Of London. Apologies for any confusion.]
One is Kindersley MoT Serif, designed by David Kindersley in 1952 for the British Ministry of Transport. Kindersley Grand Arcade is a free digital version.

http://www.kindersleyworkshop.co.uk/type-design/ Likely NewCompact, an early Mac Type 1 Postscript family of 4 fonts (with additional extended and oblique versions) created by David C. Saunders in April, 1989. A TrueType (TTF) version from 1992 is still floating around the web - most likely a slightly altered clone as it includes an Altsys Metamorphosis tag and no author credit to David C. Saunders. The E, F, and L, as well as some numbers, are (ever so) slightly different in the TrueType version. This is most likely the result of one of the following scenarios: 1) The original Mac version of NewCompact had these alternate characters available as extra glyphs but these were lost or altered when it was converted to TTF (a common practice in 90s and 00s font cloning was to copy a font but alter glyphs so as to circumvent legal ramifications), or 2) It was altered by a graphic designer for Spice Girls marketing and merchandise (probably to make the SPICE logotype more balanced).
See above post for Mustang Sans, a Spice Girls accurate recreation which features the wider E, F and L as well as more accurate numbers and punctuation.
Telford Italic from Telford family (4 fonts including Regular, Italic, Hollow, Hollow Italic) created by Roger White in 1993.
