Oh you bunch of ninnies! Couldn't even answer my questions, could you? Just teasing you! ^_^ Anyway, here's the answers!<P>1. What was Big Bird's teddy bear's name?<P>Radar<P>2. What's the code to get the secret characters in Super Puzzle Bobble?<P>Triangle, right, left, Triangle<P>3. What color are Luigi's overalls in Wrecking Crew?<P>Pink!<P>4. Which popular VeggieTales character plays Hamon in the video "Esther: The Girl Who
Became Queen?"<P>Mr. Lunt. He makes a good bad guy.<P>5. Which character has different color hubcaps than all the others in Super Mario Kart?<P>Peach! She had pink hubcaps.<P>6. What is the significance of "Kentia Hall?"<P>Kentia Hall is one of the halls at the LA convention center where E3 is held. I make it a point not to schedule any meetings in Kentia Hall. It's kind of the 'ghetto area' of E3. I'd hate to have to go to 'Hentai Hall.'<P>7. How many Servebots does Tron have?<P>Yamcha got this one right. 40.<P>8. What year was Garfield the Cat created in?<P>No, Cary Woodham was created in 1976, Garfield was two years later in 1978.<P>9. How many different arcade coin-op games has Rare made?<P>Well there's Killer Instinct 1 and 2, an obscure soccer game, and the awesome BattleToads coin-op. So that's four.<P>10. What is Star Fox called in England?<P>StarWing.<P>--Klonoa

Here's a toughie for ya...<P>Name a song about video games/pinball/arcades by an artist who's hit the pop charts (not nescesarily with that song) OTHER THAN "Pinball Wizard" by the Who and any VG-related Buckner and Garcia material. There is at least one other out there I'm aware of.

Weeeellllll...there's Weird Al's Pac-Man song, but I don't know if it made tops on any charts or not. There's some VG soundtracks that have made it big in Japan, but I bet that doesn't count, does it? <P>--Klonoa

http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin ... TE><P>I've never even heard of them. And my Billboard book only goes up to the end of 1994, so I have no idea if they charted or not. Lemme check... hmm... according to Yahoo! Music, they only released that one album, but they must have charted with that goddamn "Blue (Da Ba De)" song, so yes, Brownie Point for OA.<P>.... and still nobody has guessed the song I'm thinking of. I thought Cary would have been all over it, since Pac-Man is mentioned...
