Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What was Mario of the "Super Mario" series originally called?

Answer: Jumpman

Mario's first appearance was in fact in a "Donkey Kong" game. In this game, Mario aka Jumpman had to save his girl from the rugged primate.
2. Was the name of Sega's console, which was of the same generation as Playstation and Nintendo 64, named after a planet?

Answer: Yes

Sega Saturn was Sega's representative for the fifth generation of video game consoles. They didn't put in too much work into it, however, as they were focusing more on their console for the next generation, Sega Dreamcast.
3. "Chrono Cross" is the sequel to "Chrono Trigger".

Answer: True

"Chrono Trigger", originally for the SNES, was a highly regarded game across the globe, and its sequel came out for the Playstation. It was a role-playing game in which you would travel trough time by the means of a gate key which opens portals to different eras while controlling the main character Crono and his friends.
4. "TMHO:ETE". This was the acronym for what PS2 game released in 2008?

Answer: Twisted Metal Head On: Extra Twisted Edition

"TMHO:ETE" was an enhanced version of "Twisted Metal: Head On" for the PSP. It is said to be the "actual" canon sequel to the game since "Twisted Metal 2". "Eat the Exhaust" hasn't been released so far and no news of such a title exist. The other name I just randomly made up.
5. Collecting letters in the "Donkey Kong Country" games would bring you an extra life, if you spell out the complete word. What was the word you needed to spell out?

Answer: KONG

The letters -K-, -O-, -N-, and -G- were scattered throughout the levels. Collecting all four wouldn't usually be too hard, but sometimes it could be tricky. "Donkey Kong Country" was a very fun series of games in which you would lead two monkeys (or Kongs, if you will) in an attempt to beat the evil K. Rool.
6. In the "Megaman" series, you would need to collect bananas and coconuts to power up.

Answer: False

The "Megaman" series have nothing to do with bananas or coconuts. "Megaman" is a popular series of 2D platformer video games released for various consoles such as the SNES and PS2.
7. What Playstation 3 game would have you play as a man with superpowers whose attacks can turn blue or red, depending on whether you use them for good or bad?

Answer: inFamous

"InFamous" was released for the "Playstation 3" in 2009. It is an action/adventure game which allows you to play as man with superpowers gained after a freak explosion, thus pretty much allowing you to be either a superhero or a supervillain. "Twisted Metal 2" is a car combat game released in the nineties.
8. What is the full name of a funny and surprisingly addictive NES game?

Answer: Milk & Nuts

"Milk & Nuts" would have you play as the stated little purple thing collecting fruit. Once you collect everything on a stage, the door to your house would open and you have to come back to your darling wife. "Samurai Jack" is an anime WAY after the time of this game.
9. Is the correct name of a game title "Devil May Cry"?

Answer: Yes

The "Devil May Cry" series, originally for the PS2, is an action/adventure game released by Capcom. It features the main character, Dante, fighting hordes of demons and other bad guys.
10. What is the title of the sixth "Mortal Kombat" game?

Answer: Mortal Kombat: Deception

"Mortal Kombat: Deception" is the sixth canon game in the series. It is a fighting game developed by Midway. It was the first to introduce "fatalities", ways to brutally finish off your opponent when they get dizzy at the end of the match. "Deadly Alliance" and "Armageddon" were titles for the fifth and seventh games, respectively.
11. Which of these facts is false about "Top Gear 3000" for the SNES?

Answer: You could walk around the planets and talk to other drivers

"Top Gear 3000" is a racing car game for the SNES. A truly great game, if you ask me. You could buff up your car, you could even buy a part that would make your car jump! Since this is just a SNES game, after all, you couldn't exactly explore planets, talk to others and such, but nonetheless, it was a good game.
12. In "WWE: Smackdown vs Raw 2008" for PS2, could you unlock the Big Show?

Answer: No

No, you could not. Big Show is not an official playable character in this game. You could, however, make your own characters and make them look like other characters absent from the game, including Big Show.
13. Which of these titles is an exclusive Nintendo title game?

Answer: Legend of Zelda

The first "Zelda" was originally released for the NES. The only "Tekken" title for the Nintendo was "Tekken Advance" for the "Game Boy Advance". Both "Final Fantasy" and "Mortal Kombat" games have been released for Nintendo systems, but are not exclusive titles.
14. Was Microsoft's Xbox first introduced in the sixth generation of gaming consoles?

Answer: Yes

The Xbox was introduced in the same generation as the Playstation 2 and Nintendo Gamecube. Its successor is the Xbox360.
15. The Playstation was originally a project involving both Nintendo and Sony.

Answer: True

Indeed folks, the boys from Nintendo were at first working with Sony on a console that would run on CDs instead of cartridges. However, Nintendo dropped that idea, leaving Sony an opportunity to create a console of their own, the Playstation. Hope you liked the quiz!
