The Ultimate Nintendo Quiz

[Armygeddon Bomb]

This, much like others of its kind, is a quiz game. But, it has much better questions not only on video games of Nintendo, but for the Nintendo company itself. I give 3 points for the first to answer, 2 to the second one to answer, and 1 to the third. Bonus questions are double points.

First three questions:
1. Name at least 2 characters in Melee that Miyamoto did not create.
2. What came before Nintendo Power?
3. Who was the Nintendo Power mascot from the early times of Nintendo Power?

 

[Sodapop]

1. Roy, Marth
2. Uhh...Not sure.
3. ....Sonic?

Tough questions.

 

[GoldenGlove]

1. DK, Mario (kidding, kidding). Roy and Marth

2. Nintendo Fun Club...or something to that effect

3. Captain N?

btw - I edited to fix a few typos. Didn't go look up the answers or anything, scout's honor.

Here are the answers (Sorry I was at Twin Lakes for five days):
1. Roy, Marth, Pikachu, Pichu, Mewtwo, Jigglypuff (I think the pokemon are someone else)

Here are the next three questions:
1. What was Nintendo's first arcade?

3. 1981

 

[Armygeddon Bomb]

Ah, GoldenGlove, you better think about that fist one. It's a hard question.

[GoldenGlove]

1. That's a vague question. I know that Zelda was inspired by the exploring he did as a kid, so, a sense of adventure, I guess?

2. Reggie Phils-Aime

3. Zelda II

 

[Armygeddon Bomb]

Oh, like physical characteristics? No clue.
