Tonight we debate Nintendo for our Live Podcast recording at Maggy’s Lounge in Quincy, 7pm.
As a primer for the show I’ve included all of the question that might be asked here.
There will be 5 categories, each listed below.
Super Mario Bros
- Would you rather eat a mushroom and grow twice your normal size OR touch a star and become invinsible?
- Better mode of transportation, riding on the back of an anthromorphic dinosaur OR a go-kart?
- Would you rather attend an orgy at Luigi’s Mansion or Bowser’s Castle?
- You’re in last place in Mario Kart: Do you try your best knowing you can’t win OR do everything you can to sabotage your friend who is in first place?
- Oh no, you are a grown man who still doesn’t know how to properly put on a tie! Do you let Donkey Kong, who wears a tie everyday, teach you OR do you refuse to accept help from a Gorilla?
Megaman
- Would you rather have a robot dog that could turn into a jet or a submarine?
- Better way to steal someone’s power: Killing them like Megaman OR eating them like Kirby?
- Which Megaman boss would you rather be: Fire Man whose weakness is Ice OR Metal Man whose weaknes is… metal?
- Who would be worse to sit next to on a long flight: Napalm Man OR Hornet Man?
- Who would be the better room-mate: Shadow Man or Magnet Man?
The Legend of Zelda
- You’re a new home-owner, Congrats! Who would you rather hire to paint your house: Bongo Bong, a gargantuan, invisible, and evil spirit, appearing as a one-eyed monster with disembodied hands OR Princess Zelda?
- Which item would you rather have at your disposal a magical boomerang OR a magical key?
- The world is in danger and needs a hero: Do you turn to a child living in the forest or a plumber?
- More thankless job: The bricklayer in the mushroom kingdom or the potter in Hyrule?
- You get in an Uber and the driver is dressed in a green shirt, big belt, leather gloves and a green hat. There’s a tiny fairy floating around giving your driver directions. Do you keep quiet because the fairy probably knows best OR do you insist that the driver follow the GPS directions?
Castlevania
- More useful: owning a cool whip OR being able to turn into a bat?
- Who is the real hero: The old man giving a young boy weapons OR the cook hiding rotisserie chickens in the castle walls?
- Alucard is semi-immortal. Alucard can indeed die so long as he wishes it. Would you live forever OR would you eventually get tired of this world?
- Which boss would you rather invite over for board game night: Doppelganger or Dracula?
- Who is more likely to be into BDSM: Simon from Castlevania, who carries a whip with him all the time, or Bowser, who wears that spiky collar constantly?
Chance
- Who gets the good contoller: the host because it’s their house OR the guest because they’re the guest?
- Do you wear the wiimote wrist strap to prevent breaking your TV OR do you just take your chances?
- Which game that does not yet exist would you buy if available: Wii sailing so you could pretend to be rich OR Wii beer pong so you could pretend you have friends?
- Where the hell does Donkey Kong get all those barrels: He builds them himself OR he owns a winery?
- Your pet gorilla kidnaps your girlfriend and climbs atop a construction site: Do you fight to get her back OR Reactivate OKCupid?
