Those are trick questions, with correct answers lacking from the choices given. Expected from a "quiz" by Rol. =P

1: Atari, Nintendo and Sony are both ex aequo with 2 generational wins each.
2: They entered the console market to defeat Sony, because Sony wouldn't partner up with them.
3: Nintendo
4: There is no final boss in Mario Bros.
5: NEC

ah ! good catch on the NEC, forgot about it :(

Atari won just one, the second gen, at least that's what Wikipedia says, Magnavox Odyssey has 330,000 against Atari's Home Pong 150,000, for single version systems.

Yeah, I checked that after posting my comment. As you can see, I wasn't sure and added it after I mentioned Nintendo and Sony. As you can conclude by the rest of the sentence that says "both ex aequo with 2 gen...". =P

Sony. Wii doesn't count.

Bullying Nintendo of course, and screwing over the console landscape.

Ken Kutaragi. The final boss Mario was never able to beat, condemned to live in the shadow of this giant adversary forever after.

Nintendos SNES CD-ROM. I remember when i got a first glimpse of it in a print magazine thinking "so rad, dis gonna be awesome..!"

Well looks like the first few posts luckily didn't spoil the thread after all. It would have been a shame for all Rol's effort to have gone to waste.

Sorry. 😞

I took it as a direct challenge.

Too many alternative facts! I though VGC was a safe echo chamber place thing. Bad Rol.
