User:Element Knight 375/Gaming Forum

Hello, visitors and members! My nickname is Element Knight 375, an avid fan of Game Ideas Wiki. I'm the writer of several pages, such as The Element Chronicles, and I have been in communication with executive members, such as Ouroburos,TheNewSaurian and Geniusguy445, regarding my work and whether I could join.

Geniusguy graciously extended a personal invitation to create an account and join the community, but I convinced him to let me stay anonymous from an official standpoint for security reasons. However, I provided a nickname, Element Knight 375, for them to address me by, and shortly afterward they gave me permission to establish this, a Discussion Page, for people to give their opinions on once-a-day questions through the extremely quick, extremely easy, and extremely informal process of editing.

So here's how this works: for every day I visit the site, I will come on to this page, type that day's date, and post a question for that day, regarding everything from what game you would want made the most, from a good bout of "Who would win in a fight?". If you are intrigued by a question, just click "Edit Page" at the top next to the title, scroll down to the question you want to answer, start a paragraph, and then make up a nickname for yourself. This name can be on-the-spot or established, but you don't have to make an account. From there, you just write up your answer, hit publish, and then it's open to the public. If your answer is really good, I, Element Knight, or some of the executive contributors might respond to it. If you have a question you'd like me to ask, go to the bottom and post a comment for it (also account-free). Are you ready? Here goes!

04/01/12: Who's the craziest game character you've ever seen?
 * Me! CrazieDave. --Hey Chugga, don't eat the mushroom. 05:22, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * Somehow I didn't expect that. The Joker is up there to a certain degree, but the Postman from Twilight Princess is probably the craziest. "Sounds like something crashed." Element Knight 375 00:17, April 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not really into Batman or Zelda games, so I didn't consider them. I do like Ocarina of Time though.
 * Dimentio is a psychopath. Fawful's pretty crazy. There's probably more. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

04/02/12: Which would you rather have, an SNES or an N64?
 * It depends solely on the games. The SNES has better Mario games by far (like Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Kart), plus A Link to the Past, but underwhelming Kirby games. The N64 has 007 GoldenEye, Ocarina of Time, Paper Mario, and Star Fox 64, but only Super Mario 64 is the best Mario game, which seems like a less enjoyable format of Super Mario Galaxy. In the end, I think I'd rather have an SNES, because it's been a bigger part of my life. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Probably the N64. The games are great, and the difficulty is phenominal. The SNES is much better than the NES, in turms of games. Wii > N64 > Gamecube (games playable on Wii) > SNES > WiiU > NES. But the games have always been fantastic. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * N64. It has a lot of more games and is more advanced than SNES. Either way, I was only like a baby when SNES came out, so I'll be more comfortable with N64 games. Al129023 12:34 April 29, 2012

04/03/12: Among Mario, Kirby, or The Legend of Zelda, which is your favorite?
 * I like the Zelda universe the best, followed by Mario and then Kirby. However, the gameplay is about equal for all of them in my opinion. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Mario has been the best that I've experienced. The universe and gameplay is well rounded, and playable by all. Kirby is similar to Mario games, albeit easier and more unusual. I've never really liked most RPG's that are all about exploring wide worlds. Metroid Prime or Other M are the only real exploring games that I like. LoZ are usually too much of a pain, when I could be playing a balanced game like Paper Mario, SMRPG, or M&L series. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I like Mario and Zelda a lot, but it's hard to decide what gaming series is better. But I'll say Mario, which is fun and has unique experiences in different places. Oh, and Bowser is cool. Al129023 12:30 April 29, 2012

04/04/12: Which do you prefer overall, Super Mario Galaxy or Mario Kart Wii?
 * Mario Kart Wii as far as multiplayer and controls go, but Super Mario Galaxy for everything else. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I really like SM Galaxy, but I wouldn't give up Mario Kart w. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

04/05/12: Who would win in a fight, Goku or Naruto?
 * Depends if Goku could go Super Saiyan. If he could, he would win by a landslide, but it would be less sure otherwise. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Dunno, don't care. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

04/06/12: In honor of Poke Park 2, who would win in a fight...Tepig or Oshawott?


 * Definitely Oshawott because of the type advantage. Al129023
 * I'm gonna go with Tepig, because he has a stunning record of winning from what I can tell by watching Pokemon B&W. You do have a point, though, that Oshawott has the type advantage. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Electrode. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, we're doing that, are we? OK, then Latios. Element Knight 375 01:04, April 16, 2012 (UTC)

04/07/12: Everyone, I'm sorry I didn't post a question on the actual day, but I lost my internet connection. So, I will now be posting a question for this day and the 8th. So, which is better for the SNES, Super Mario Kart, or F-Zero?
 * I think Super Mario Kart is more interesting, fun, and easy to control, so yeah...I'll go with that. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Super Mario Kart is amazing, but so was Super F-Zero. We need to bring it back with the Ice Climbers and Kid Icarus. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

04/08/12: What's your favorite Mario Party game?
 * I'm going to be quite honest and say that I've never played Mario Party in my life, but Mario Party 9 looks the most enjoyable. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Dude, you are missing out. 9 looks cool, 8 was a blast (Shy Guy's Perplex Express! Plus the grpahics!) but 2 is absolutely incredible. The minigames are vastly original, and humorous. Bowser is so much funnier in that one. I've watched my brother play Mario Party Advance, and that looks like fun too. Though without 2, we'd never have the joke of 20 coins to Bowser! (Land on a Bowser square, and he makes you play a roulette of doom. It goes, but there was a few times in a row, where the thing would not pick Bowser's potluck or lose a star...but would speed up to select 20 coins to Bowser. Once, my bro got a special select, where you could make someone give something to someone else. He selected himself, then 20 coins and realized how the game worked. Nonetheless, he didn't let that wonderfully fun streak end). Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'll probably get one at some point. Element Knight 375 01:04, April 16, 2012 (UTC)

04/09/12: Who would win in a fight, Blaziken or Dialga?
 * I like Blaziken's chances, but it almost seems like a tie. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Blaziken is not legendary, thus D > B. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * He's still AWESOME, though! Man, Blaziken can't get no respect. Element Knight 375 01:04, April 16, 2012 (UTC)

04/10/12: What's your favorite movie-based game? Do you like it as much as the movie?


 * I'd say the Thor game. Al129023
 * Not bad. I'd say...Spider-Man 2. I just like the ability to swing around and fight crime, plus complete challenges and such. I do prefer it to the movie, as well, because I'm just not into the movies as much as one might expect. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I've said before that I don't like most movie based games. So probably Lego Star Wars or Scott Pilgrim or something. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

04/11/12: Which boss do you like better, Whispy Woods or Goriath?
 * I think Whispy Woods is more creative, so I'll say him. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Nobody is better than Whispy Woods. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

04/12/12: Do you prefer live-action or round-based combat in RPGs?
 * I don't have a ton of RPG experience, but live-action seems better because you have more control of what's going on and the ability to surprise your opponents. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Live Action for a shooter, but a quicker RPG like in Mario. Not like FF. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)

04/13/12: Who's your favorite Star Wars character in a game?
 * As far as overall gameplay goes, Anakin Skywalker (for his stunning portrayal in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith). However, I like Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi (of course) and Ki-Adi-Mundi as well. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Darth Sideous or anyone with Lightning powers are really cool. The guy from Force Unleashed mainly. Ben Kenobi, Mace Windu, Zam Wessel, any other bounty hunter in Lego Star Wars, as they dodge laser blasts. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

04/14/12: What's your favorite version of Hyrule Field? 04/15/12: What's your favorite game for the 3DS? 04/16/12: Which do you spend more time playing with, the Mii Plaza or Face Raiders?
 * The one in Twilight Princess. Better enemies, better graphics, better terrain, and so-much-better music. However, the one in Ocarina of Time is a close second. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 21:42, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm no expert. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Believe me, the one in Twilight Princess is epic. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 01:04, April 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * Haven't played enough 3DS games, but I enjoyed Mario Kart 7, playing as a Shy Guy. Genius "Busier than I look" Guy #445 (talk)  23:01, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't have a 3DS yet. It's very much to my own chagrin. Hopefully I'll get one for my birthday in mid-July, because that's the only thing I want. However, if I had to pick an original one from what I've seen, I'd probably go with Super Mario 3D Land, Kid Icarus: Uprising, or Mario Kart 7. "I can't wait to blow up some Dodongos!" Element Knight 375 01:04, April 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * Mii Plaza, I love the concept of Streetpass. CrazieDave. --Hey Chugga, don't eat the mushroom. 11:30, April 17, 2012 (UTC)
 * I like the Mii Plaza better, too. I have fun making Miis look like people, like my family and friends, or the guys from Big Time Rush. (et cetera, et cetera) "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 03:43, April 18, 2012 (UTC)
 * Mii Plaza definitley. I mean, because you get to play Find Mii on 3DS. And Puzzle Swap. Al129023 12:27, April 29, 2012
 * Mii Channel, because I don't have a 3DS. I think that is close to Mii Plaza, anyways. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't have a 3DS either, but while Face Raiders looks fun, I prefer the Mii Channel. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/16/12: Which do you like better, the Gale Boomerang or the Fire Flower?
 * Fire Flower, I don't play Zelda. Genius Guy #445 (talk)
 * I think the Fire Flower would be useful in the winter time, but in terms of the one I like better, I like the Gale Boomerang (Twilight Princess, FTW). "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/17/12: What's your favorite special tunic in the Zelda series?
 * Psh, tunic? Zelda games. Hero Shirt is the best. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * I guess that's valid. The Hero's Armor (which is in a Zelda game) looks cool, but I think the Zora Tunic looks better. Overall, I guess it depends on where you are. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/18/12: Who would win in a fight, Volvagia or Rayquaza?
 * Seeing that they're pretty much the same I'd say it would be pretty close and ending up in a draw. CrazieDave. Hey Chugga, don't eat the mushroom. 10:06, April 19, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm gonna go with Rayquaza, because Volvagia is way smaller and easy to defeat, even in his own home court. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 22:37, April 19, 2012 (UTC)
 * It'd be close. That's all I can say. Unless battling with a trainer. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

04/19/12: Which genre of game do you find more fulfilling, C&C (Command and Conquer), or RPG (Role-Playing Game)?
 * There's more pride of skill and hours in for an RPG, but if you win everything in a C&C, that's more fulfilling. Match wits and win, C&C would be more fulfilling. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't have much C&C experience, and Paper Mario is great. So, I guess I like RPGs so far. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/20/12: Do you often play the games that social networks provide?
 * Trying to do school work more than go on the internet, so trying to cut back. I do find myself playing Castleville, though. It's not terrible. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * No. :D "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/21/12: Have you played any emulators online that you have thoroughly enjoyed?
 * Virtual NES and that group of emulators. It's decent. But the best on is Vizzed. It has some many more games, and so much else. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * The vNES on nintendo8.com is one of the most enjoyable things ever! I use it as inspiration for my reviews, and can play my favorite old games anytime. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/22/12: Does one flash game stand out in your mind as being really addicting?
 * Ooo flash game? Like a good shooter, Raze 2 is there. But beyond that, Slopiskier is really good. Nitrome games are really good too. Take your pick, guys. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Super...Smash...Flash...2! It is no-contest the greatest fighter on the internet. I play it all the time, and never get sick of it. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/23/12: What is one flash game that you'd rather listen to music on than play?
 * Nitrome being the flash version of Nintendo, of course. Many of them are really good. Toxic and Toxic 2 are really good for music. Slopiskier is great, JMTB02 has games with excellent music. Like Run, Elephant Run. Absolutely excellent. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Again, I like the SSF2 music, because it's from SSB games. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/24/12: What's your favorite spinoff of a game series?
 * Mario Kart Wii. I like it. Especially because it's the only Mario Kart game with Dry Bowser and Funky Kong. Al129023 12:25, April 29, 2012
 * Is that a spinoff? I guess so. I think Wii Sports Resort is a pretty great spinoff of Wii Sports, so as far as things I know to be spinoffs go, that would be my favorite. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 20:16, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * Luigi's Mansion was absolutely incredible as a spinoff for Luigi. What's interesting, is how Luigi hopes, in Paper Mario 64, that he gets his own game, with his name in the title, and says it will never happen! Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

04/25/12: Do you think that The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask should be ported to the 3DS?
 * That'd be cool, but having all games in decent 3D would be cool. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think Nintendo should fulfill Operation: Moonfall. There's so much weight in numbers. Still, I think they should put soem original Zelda games on the 3DS. I already have Ocarina of Time on my N64. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/26/12: What's your favorite GameCube game?
 * I'm not really sure on that, but I do like Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. Al129023 12:23, April 29, 2012.
 * I haven't played a whole lot of games on the GameCube; Wind Waker and Super Smash Bros. Melee (plus Paper Mario: TTYD) look fantastic, but as far as ones I've actually played go, I think my favorite would be Super Monkey Ball. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 20:16, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * That is not a fair question. I love most of the games we have for the Gamecube. Luigi's Mansion, Mario Super Strikers, Sunshine, Metroid Prime, Double Dash, so many good games. Metroid Prime are some of the best Metroid games I've every played. Other M isn't bad, but that's beside the point. Hmm. Luigi's Mansion is most original, but most of the others have a Wii sequel that's better (E.g. Mario Power Tennis). So I guess Luigi's Mansion or Metroid Prime. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * I must get...more GameCube games! Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/27/12: Who's your favorite Mortal Kombat character?
 * Definitely Sub- Zero. I beat the living crud out of Raiden in Mortal Kombat 4... Al129023 12:20, April 29, 2012
 * I have a whole lot of possibilities; I like Raiden and Fujin because they are gods of lightning and wind, but Liu Kang just seems like the coolest one to know. Johnny Cage seems like the coolest one, but he's not much of a fighter. I guess my favorite in the end would be...Liu Kang, but when he has blue clothes (Squa-ta-ta-deyo!). "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 20:16, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * Don't play, don't know. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

04/28/12: What's the next Nintendo franchise that stopped, but should come back?
 * According to the Wii Viewer, Animal Crossing should get a new storyline, as the present was a remake of a remake. Watch the review, EK. Well, I don't know of any others off hand, cuz they haven't stated everything for the new consoles yet. Hard to know what's dying until it's buried. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * I did watch that review. You underestimate me. Anyway, I think they should bring Kid Icarus to the Wii after the 3DS, or perhaps make a new Ice Climbers game. Although, a new Adventure Island might be kind of fun. Hard to beat Kid Icarus. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

04/29/12: What should the next Mario Kart game be called?
 * Depends on the quirk. Personally, All Terrain would be a good title, seeing what was in 7. More extreme is cool. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * I've pondered this for a while. I think Mario Kart Recharged might be a good name, but that's off the top of my head. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * I've been thinking that one should be called Mario Kart Victory Lane

04/30/12: What game exclusive to the 3DS do you think should be available on the Wii?
 * Maybe Pushmo. Seeing as I am part of club Nintendo, and all the new game updates are for the 3DS, it bugs me. So maybe more than just that one. Genius Guy #445 (talk)
 * I kind of agree, I have the Nintendo Channel and everything is for the 3DS that I don't have. I so have to get one for my birthday. Anyway, I think Kid Icarus: Uprising should be on the Wii, because I really want to try it, but maybe Mario Power Tennis and Luigi's Mansion 2 when they come out. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

05/01/12: How about this: is there a Wii game that you'd like to be able to play on the go through the 3DS?


 * Just one? I don't want the game on the handheld, just as 3D. Though i like the handheld. You know, alot of channels would be really good on the 3DS, not so much the full Wii games. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * True. I'd like to see Skyward Sword on the 3DS, and they should honestly put up Kirby's Return to Dreamland. Plus, I guess a Super Mario Galaxy and or Mii-based game should be on there too. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

05/02/12: What new color for the 3DS would you most like to see?
 * Green. Predictable? Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * I think green would be cool too. Geez, so many to choose from. Well, my first choice is Cobalt Blue in the United States, and perhaps Silver, Gold, or maybe Orange. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

05/03/12: What game or type of game do you think should have WFC options?
 * I don't actually use the WFC much, so it doesn't matter much to me. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * I think multiplayer side-scrollers should have WFC. You know, you could have a WFC save file to play through with your registered friends, and you could do free play with random users. Otherwise, a Mii-based game like Wii Sports Resort should have it. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

05/04/12: Happy May the Fourth Be With You Day! In honor of this day, if you could have anything from the Star Wars universe, what would it be?
 * Lightning powers. Or just Force. And a lightsaber. Dangit, this question is hard. Lightning is so cool, Force is useful and a lightsaber would be incredible. I guess force, then lightning, then lightsaber. Beyond fights, what good is such a sword? Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd like a dark blue lightsaber just to practice with, but otherwise, I'd want Force powers, or a Jedi Starfighter. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

05/05/12: And now we have the Kentucky Derby day! To honor that, out of all the horses in video games, which is your favorite?
 * The ones in Petz: Horses, because NerdCubed trolled his fans when pretending to review Amnesia, The Dark Decent for April Fools. Or maybe the cows in Wii Play, or the Ostros that Shy Guys ride. Oh Shy Guys, you ride Ostriches. Is there anything weird you don't do? Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Epona gets my vote because she's Link's horse and the official horse of the Zelda series. Otherwise, I like the horses from The Lord of the Rings, even though they aren't really featured. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

05/06/12: Do you have a favorite Rayman game? 05/07/12: What's your favorite Earthbound game?
 * Don't play, but there is a flash Rabbids game that I thought was unusual. Does that count? Genius Guy #445 (talk)  02:31, May 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Rayman Origins seems like the most fun, because no rabbits are involved. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 04:11, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

05/08/12: Who's your favorite sith in the Star Wars universe? 05/09/12: Who would win in a fight, Zekrom or Reshiram?
 * I'd say either Darth Nihulius from The Knights of the Old Republic II game, or possibly Darth Sidious(Emperor Palpatine). It's hard to decide.- Al129023 8:15, May 8, 2012
 * My vote probably goes with the cliche and Darth Vader, but I also like Darth Revan and Darth Maul for his combat skill. "So much thinking involved..." Element Knight 375 03:06, May 10, 2012 (UTC)
