Don’t worry @lifer I know it’s a series with very very very very few games.

I have a suspicion of the theme but I don’t have a clue what the other games in it would be.

Then just write your ideas down - even if you don't get the games right, the name of each theme is already worth half a point.

November Quiz - Clues #3

Don't forget - we are not only having the beginning of Christmas season right now, but also the last weekend of the November quiz... Monday it's all over, and so far there are exactly five users from this forum among the 56 overall players. This makes NintendoLife the ONLY forum to send more contestants (compared to last round) than any of the other communities!
I hope this final clue post will remind and/or motivate even more to still join the game.

So then, here are the final clues:

1) Number 3 is a realtime strategy game.
2) 25 players have gotten game 8 right, but 31 players have gotten it only half-right. Watch out!
3) Titles 2 and 5 are loosely based on books.
4) Picture 7 shows you the insides of a hospital.

Deadline is the coming Monday (30th November), participate via http://www.retrogamequiz.com/

Here is the quiz one last time, now get going!

I was hoping I'd be able to work out the fifth theme and game #12 before the end of the month but I still can't think what they could be. And I've definitely seen #10 before but I can't remember what it is either! Argh, etc.

Thank you Nintendo for giving us Donkey Kong Jr Math on Nintendo Music

Wow, a third round of hints even!

@Dogorilla: Is #10 from the theme you are still trying to figure out?

If a game is ported, and you he image is the port, would it be correct if we guess the non-port.

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

Mr_Horizon

@BabyYoshi12 Yes, you'd still get the full point for the port!

@lifer yes, more clues! Participation is surprisingly low this time, so I'm pushing it more than usual. Nintendolife likes this round though, must be the plumbers.

I can’t decide on #10. I have two guesses and a gut feeling neither are correct. Still, hope to get a new personal record this month!

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

Dogorilla

@lifer Yeah, it is. Four of the themes are pretty obvious to me but I can't see any connection between the remaining five games!

Submitted my final answers!

I will get, at the minimum: 3
I am aiming for: 5
I will get, at the maximum: 9

@Mr_Horizon is there a possibility of ever having another Wunschkonzert quiz like in 2018, where we can suggest games? It sounds like a lot of fun and you haven’t done it in a while so I thought I would ask.

We haven't had one this year, true. The December bonus question will be about picking your favourite round of this year (it's already up), but I'll do another Wunschkonzert question in the first quiz of 2021.

You know, I'm really glad that I managed to finally top the board once and all, but my real takeaway from reading the solution post is "there's a Christmas IK+!?" I absolutely adore IK+!

Thanks for another round. I really liked the theme mechanic. The Wunschkonzert suggestion also sounds nice!

Ah I wondered if #12 was one of those educational Mario games but I was thinking Mario's Time Machine and I'm not sure if I even submitted that guess.

@BabyYoshi12 I am curious, can you tell me where you recognised "Overcooked" in the #24? I can't really see it at all!

Mr_Horizon

BabyYoda71

WOOT WOOT!!!!!!!!!! I am super proud right now! I don’t know why, I got last place, BUT I’M STILL VERY HAPPY TO BE LAST PLACE!

How did I get 5 points though? I only see 3.

@Mr_Horizon So #24 wasn’t Overcooked.... I don’t have a clue what Curiosity is, but those arrows pointing into bowls is what made me think it was Overcooked.

Pretty sure it’s almost impossible to beat Lifer on the local leaderboards😂. I sure will try next time though!

Speaking of next time... What is it?

EDIT: I have found a CLUE! Even though the quiz says Coming Soon, the name will be........ “King of the World”!!

@Blooper987 There are definitely blind spots in my games universe. I'm not well traversed in the Japanese consoles outside Nintendo/Sega/Sony. I've never used a Wonderswan or even a Neo Geo for example.

And I'm thinking if I should maybe retire after the year. But unless I delete my account and block all participating websites, I'd end up checking out the quiz anyway...

@BabyYoshi12 I was trying to guess what your #24 was. Reading your explanation, it does makes sense.

How did you figure that out!?
