Sqrt, if you don't mind my asking, how many games have you played in general? Quite a few actually - It's just that only two of them are Kirby games (Kirby's Dreamland and Kirby 64). |

I only asked because you seem to be less educated Nintendo-wise than the rest of us. Fry may say it's old and crappy, but the site is actually pretty damned useful. I'm actually surprised that people out there don't use it. On a related note, I'll admit that I need to stop bothering Parrot, be he never answers me when I ask him anything (barring the bit about HudsonSoft), and half the time he keeps repeating himself. How could I not grow annoyed over time? |

I'm actually surprised that people out there don't use it. Oh, sure! I'll spend my lonely days just reading about Nintendo games! Sounds like fun! Hey, while I'm at it, I can call some friends over so we can watch paint dry! Fry's site is great and all, but are we required to read every page on his site in order to join the forums? I don't think so. |

We... we don't!?
I lost my marriage and my 401k reading the pages on NinDB just so I could join! I've been had!

I don't think so. Is there a test which tells me how Nintendo-eduacated I am? Just curious. Hey, they could make a game like "The Nintendo Quiz: Are You a Nintendo Expert?" with 9-Volt as the host.  |

Only if I can set the questions! ;D Question 1: Who was the main protagonist in F-Zero Maximum Velocity. That kinda thing? |

I only asked because you seem to be less educated Nintendo-wise than the rest of us. Does it matter? Yeah, the site is called Nintendo Database, but it certainly doesn't mean anyone has to be an expert. It's the same as someone not being able to walk into a bakery to buy a cookie unless they now 50 different types of pastries, know how to make 25 different pastries, and absolutely just love bread. As long as people fallow the rules, then there is no problem with anyone posting here. (I know you didn't say Underwear shouldn't post here, but you did question his "Nintendo Knowledge") Also, the Nintendo quiz thing sounds like a fun idea. |

Also, the Nintendo quiz thing sounds like a fun idea. Someone ran one earlier this year. I can't be the only one to remember it, can I? Anyway, I'm all for one ran by Fry. Or one ran by anyone for that matter. |

I was only suggesting that if anyone doesn't know something about Nintendo, the site would be the first (and probably best) place to look! What the hell is up with everyone jumping the gun lately!? |

All he said was that he'd only played a few Kirby games. I don't think that suggests he didn't know anything.  |

No, he's demonstrated in the past that he knows less than us. I couldn't help but be reminded of that.

You make it sound like it's a bad thing. In some cultures, such as every culture outside of Nintendo fanboyism, knowing less about Nintendo than other people is considered a good thing.

I didn't intend to make it sound like a bad thing. All I wanted to do was ask a mere question, and all this happens...
