Forums - Gaming Discussion - The 'random gaming questions you can't find answers to' thread

Ever had a trivial gaming question poking at the back of your head. Not anything like gaming tips, just bits of trivia about gaming itself you can't get a definite answer to? Questions that shouldn't keep you up at night, but they do. I wanted to start this thread for those queries that more knowledgable people could answer. I'll start.

What was the first game to use a weapon wheel? The first I can remember was Ratchet and Clank, but there's got to be an instance before that. Right?

You sprint for 2 seconds and pretend you rolled. It's a Nintendo game, use your imagination.

Why the hell is ice "super effective" against ground? Its not. I promise you, it really is not.

I'll add: Why is poison not "super effective" towards bug? 

Also, the only reason fairy is super effective against dragon is to balance the metagame.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

I had a question about whether DLC worked on a 3DS system that did not have it downloaded (ie FE Awakening Limit Break) and moving to a system that did not have it downloaded

Eventually found out that it worked :p

Pokemon is weird. Why is grass effective against ground? Slapping  a leaf won't kill the ground anytime soon- heck, without the ground, where would the grass grow? 



Why does season come so fast in The Last of Us? I swear, you finish Summer and Fall is already over by the time Winter starts. It's like Fall lasts for one week.
