If there were a gaming history/literacy test...

Multiple choice is optional. Feel free to go as hardcore as you'd like, as I will be using this as a real test soon. Questions that get put on the test will get +rep.

EDIT- I should also mention, Nintendo questions have a better chance of getting on the test, due to having a bigger history.
