>nintendo website automatically assumes its a kid doing the quiz

we don't even have to try

What a great quiz!

>>3436475

Oh god, the cringe...

>>3436559
>How many bytes are there in a kilobyte?
>A. 1000
>B. 1024
>C. 1
>D. green

>Back in the day, players had to link their Game Boy family systems with an actual cable that ran between the two. The ‘90s were a weird time…

Connecting electronics with a cable is weird.

>>3436739
I bet you use a wired monitor.

>Who appears in the Yoshi’s New Island game, but NOT the Yoshi game?
I had the images blocked, the fuck Yoshi game do they mean? When I think "Yoshi Game" I think "Yoshi's Island", especially when they say "Yoshi's New Island" which I have no fucking clue what it is.

>>3436482
considering you're in the activities section play.nintendo, what else should they assume?

6/7, that's what I get for ignoring most of Zelda

>>3436739
I feel geriatric now.

>>3436475
>Your parents
>Your parents
>Your parents

>tfw you realize you could be a parent right now instead of taking this dumb quiz.

>>3436739
establishing a data exchange connection with low throughput and using cables is becoming a little rare, especially with portable devices. We have bluetooth, wifi, lte and nfc for a reason.
Even the GBC tried to do away with it for data exchange

Anyone who does not get 100% on this please leave /vr/ immediately and permanently, thank you.

Yoshi on NES

NDS is from 2004, that's 12 years ago. The site is for kids. The target demographic of the quiz has only ever used Nintendo handhelds that connect wireless. Even the competition, the PSP, uses wireless communication.
So, yes, the concept of connecting handhelds through wired connections is kind of outdated

>>3437063
I had to guess two or three times and guessed wrong at least once

>>3437048
>you could be a parent

Hypothetically speaking only. There's no way I'll ever get sex.

>>3436714
Fuck dude, not even intel can agree if it's 1000 or 1024.

As a rule though, its 1000 for marketing and 1024 on computers.

>>3437080
1KB = 1000B
1KiB = 1024B

KiB are used in the context of RAM and CPUs, KB everywhere else, in theory. The CPU/RAM dudes unfortunately spilled into the other subjects, leading to confusion, like storage wrongly using KB in most operating systems. So intel doesn't have to "agree" on anything. They use whichever system is historically more appropriate for a subject

20 here got them all right

Also why does nintendo assume kids won't play their old consoles?

>>3437105
they usually do not have old consoles. /vr/ gaming is not a default stance. Many people get rid of their old systems when they get new ones. They don't keep them, or hand them down to relatives. And likewise, many people have no interest in playing old shit, but instead play the latest releases, going as far as selling a few months old games in order to finance the latest release

>>3437076
It's not impossible for all of us. Prostitutes exist. But reproductive sex? I don't think so.

>>3437106
modern games are designed to have a history, even the ones that are played in short rounds. So get xp, achievements, unlockables, settings, all these things. A game that persists no state at all is highly unusual nowadays.

In the case of Mario, unless you're skilled and speedrunning, you'll spend a lot of time to get through the game. The idea of resetting the player's progress to a full zero after spending like an hour or two on a game is kind of considered highly unusual design nowadays. Usually the iterations are much shorter.

but i am a parent and i took the quiz
>>3436572

my dad was born in 1957, he doesn't know shit about games.

>>3437064
I honestly had no idea this game existed until I took this quiz

>>3436887
"Yoshi" is a puzzle game on the NES.

>>3437106
Your font rendering is giving my eyes cancer.

>We have bluetooth, wifi, lte and nfc for a reason.

And we will also have literal cancer enablers if we don't tune down this wireless meme.

>What does the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D game have that the original didn’t?
I thought this question was about what Ocarina of Time had that Hyrule Fantasy didn't.

>>3437281
good point, I did not notice the 3D was part of the title, just figured they were asking for the difference between Ocarina of Time and its 2D predecessors. Explains why I fucked this one up. I was assuming video clues would be too much of a player insult in the N64 days and instead picked Navi, thinking that game was the first Zelda where they went all hamfisted tutorial

>>3437106
>playing vydia as a kid
>get further than ever before
>parents make me go grocery shopping or some shit because child services will be on their ass if i stay home
>dad turns off the power bar so i cant do the "turn tv screen off and keep nintendo on" trick
Kids have it good now.

My parents don't even play video games

>>3437223
>hurrdurr radio transmitters cause cancer
Get over, bud.

>>3439396
Why were you being monitored by child protective services?

>>3437123
What games do you play?

>>3437106
>can you imagine a world like that?!
Can I imagine a world in which SMB1 didn't have a save function?
Yes, I can imagine such a world.

>>3439425
Neighbor hated everyone on the street. They called the cops for every reason they could.

>durr those kids are mixing mentos with diet coke they are spilling acid on public property and making too much noise

>>3439429
>Yes, I can imagine such a world.
Are you 10 or younger? No, you aren't

>>3436627
No-fun nigger detected.

>>3437223
I have some tamagotchi version that transmits data via infared iirc. I don't have two, sadly. Or a friend with one.


Oh and I got 6 out of 7. Got the Kirby one wrong because I'm a retard. Never had it back in the day, but the GBA version is super fun to play 2 player with the link cable. My year old is getting really good at it. She used to just fly to the top of the level and just glide to the end, but now she directs me where to to and what to do. Daddy still gets designated the boss fighter though.

Sorry for the blog and life story, but it's a great game for young kids.
