@BabyYoshi12 Hmmm, those thanks make me worried. I don't think I wrote anything that would give #15 away...

Alright everyone, the deadline has passed. No more quiz entries for last month!

But yeah, it was surprisingly difficult.

I really didn't think it would be more difficult than the usual rounds, there were so many classics from all decades and systems. Well I'll have the numbers added up soon, then we will know.

The guess I'm most proud of are #22, which I had at level 2 (I kinda thought about it at level 1 already, but surely, this quiz wouldn't focus on genitalia, RIGHT?).

The answer post will include the usernames of who recognised any game first. You are the only person to first identify not one but two penises correctly. Be proud!

@MrHorizon Heavy on the hints all of a sudden!

I had a weak moment and really wanted BabyYoshi to get F-Zero right! But yes, shouldn't have.

I got my hopes up to finally book a win this time. Don't disappoint me tomorrow!

Don't disappoint yourself! Your toughest competitors are the_BACH and EarthPainting, but I didn't do their scores yet.

I don't know what #15 is (I guessed but I don't know if it's right) so I'm not sure how you worked that out from our comments? It's not Sonic lol.

I think you only get notified of new posts in threads you follow if you've actually visited the thread since the last time you got a notification. So if you just read a previous update using the email without actually clicking on the thread, you wouldn't get notified again after that, which might be why you haven't been getting notifications.

Well, what should I say? I got Penis experience for well over 40 years...

Don't disappoint yourself!

...and that experience was mostly disappointing.

September Quiz - Answers & High Score

Now that was certainly something! Every three days a larger picture... many liked that, but also some were not as happy. In the end a total of 88 people were playing, that's not too bad.
In any case, it was just an experiment (similar to the Frankenstein Monster riddle) and you'll get a regular quiz with no shenanigans for October.

Alright, a winners celebration: Congratulations to Earthpainting, Lifer, the_BACH, JoakimZ and Excelsior - you are the TOP 5 and won this round!

Also Kudos to J.R., Gerhard S, Nobby_UK, Kong and Splunge - together you form the TOP 10.

Only one forum has managed to not just get two users into the TOP 10, but even into the TOP 5 - a big congrats to Lifer and JoakimZ, that's a great win for NintendoLife.

And to keep the balance, you people also managed to get two people into the BOTTOM 5, but I am sure they will do much better in the October quiz.

Thanks to all for joining and see you next time!

Hi @Apportal.... @Mr_Horizon thinks I can do better in October. That depends on the quiz style.

Good job @lifer and @JoakimZ!

P.S. Was I not the only one to guess Deadly Premonition 2 on 19?

Heigh Ho Heigh Ho. It’s off to work (from home) I go.

Hey, at least I beat @BabyYoshi12!

I got F-Zero right. That's it I believe

Deadly Premonition surely was a good guess early. Lots of tainted light used in that.
My initial guess was Yakuza 0, like 7 others, it seems. It also has lots of yellow lighting shots, and the mouth of the main character looks remarkably similar.

@Mr_Horizon I'm so glad that missing the submission time for the first round didn't caused any disappointment after all. Earthpainting would still have been in front. Hats off!

I'm very happy with the result... and thanks for the extra 0.3 points for the wrong NBA Live guess.

But I'm really not sure if I should be happy that the only games I guessed first were Atari sex games. But did you actually play Custers Revenge?

@JoakimZ Looking forward to some serious competition from now on.

The majority of my points I only got from him being nice like that. Haha! I got four correct overall.

1. Game: Resident Evil 3
My guess: Resident Evil

2. Game: Dragon Quest 5
My guess: Dragon Quest

3. Game: Sonic Advance
My guess: Sonic

4. Game: Kirby’s Adventure
My guess: Kirby

So thanks for taking the series name as well! Otherwise I would have quit long ago. (;

P.S. I would never have gotten Dragon Quest right if it I hadn’t had a conversation with someone who’s profile pic just so happened to be the slime. Lady Luck was on my side that day haha.

Heigh Ho Heigh Ho. It’s off to work (from home) I go.

@Apportal My usual guideline is that I'll post results at the latest by the 5th, and a new round at the latest by the 10th. If I miss these dates you can assume I'm having some major problems.

So Blooper987 is right, we'll continue at some stage this week.

@Mr_Horizon I'm still waiting for The Dig to be an answer in any of these.

October Quiz - Gaming Celebrities

Sometimes there are big names in a video game - be it the designer, a la "Joe Average presents Action Fight 2" or the protagonist, for example "Action Fight 2 starring Joe Average". That's the titles this round is about, those that have a famous developer, a sports star or a pop starlet to boost their chance of success. Do you know them all?

For the correct name of the game you get one point.
Should you not know it, you can still get half a point for the name of the designer (if it's in the title) or the protagonist.

Deadline is Saturday the 31st of October, participate via http://www.retrogamequiz.com/

Here is the quiz, have fun!
