I see what you're getting at MrMarc. One is testing your intelligence and the other is testing your memory. Rather like comparing learning string theory to memorizing a phone book. They're both difficult, and the person who's capable of grasping all the abstract concepts of string theory probably wouldn't be able to memorize a phone book, and vice versa.

Also, I'm willing to bet that the majority of people would rather learn string theory (Zelda), than memorize a phone book (Contra).
