1) What was your FIRST video game console?
The Atari 2600... though it's worth noting it didn't have as much of an impression on me as the NES.
2) Name a few games you played on said console.
Dig Dug, Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Cops and Robbers, Gyruss, Burgertime, and Pitfall 2 come to mind
3) Excluding handhelds, how many VG consoles do you own presently?
What's with the handheld hate, yo? Currently I got a Wii, Xbox 3600, PS2, Sega Saturn, N64 (sorta), and a Dreamcast. However I have a Genesis, Sega CD, and SNES coming in the mail.
4) Were you a Street Fighter nut? Any character in particular?
Oh yes. I love Street Fighter. Dan Hibiki is my hero, other than him, I'm all about Chun-Li.
5) Do you think Capcom is a FUCKING awesome company with kickass character designs?
Actually yes, I love their character designs.
6) Here's the scenario.. You had some friends over and you all ate FRIED CHICKEN! After the meal you all decide to play some video games. As your friend reaches for a controller you notice his/her hands are very "greasy." Are you the type that would insist they wash their hands before pawing the controller, or is it no big deal?
Manners are manners, yo.
7) What's your favorite RPG/Action RPG?
I'm going to agree with Josh and say Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door. When I get into an RPG enough to beat it these days, that says something.
8) Do you prefer 2D games or 3D games?
2D. A lot more work and love goes into making 2D graphics than 3D models IMO.
9) Are you an SNK fan?
Oh hell yes. I love me some KOF and Metal Slug. Not to mention the awesome but forgotten Magician Lord.
9) Are you good at DDR?
Nah, I look like a monkey when I play that game.
10) Who wants to kick that dog's ass from Duck Hunt?
Why don't you just get an emulator and play the arcade version entitled Vs. Duck Hunt? It had a bonus level where YOU COULD SHOOT THE DOG. Granted you lost points for that, but IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DO IT.
11) Have you skipped out on important events in life because of video games?
A few days of work.
12) Do you listen to video game music?
Yup, a lot more than I probably should.
13) Have you ever cosplayed a VG character?
Yeah, in my early to mid 20s I did a lot of cosplaying, not so much anymore.
14) Have you ever been in an arcade playing a fighting game, KICKING ASS, and then some 6 year old Asian kid comes in and OWNS YOU??
Not really, though I remember seeing a line of people challenging a kid at MvC2 and losing at it.
15) Name three games you would love to see remakes of if it was done properly
STRIDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
16) Mario or Sonic?
This might surprise some people, but the answer is Mario. Mario has better games, a better villain (Bowser IS THE MAN), and a more interesting world. I just draw Sonic characters more because they have better character designs and more defined personalities (and in the case of the Femmegasm strips, they're easier to make fun of)
17) When a movie shows up in the theaters, let's use Spider-man as an example, are you likely to buy the GAME version?
Not really, most license games suck ass. Why can't I get a House video game with Ducktales play mechanics. House can pogo fuck diseases out of people and Lupus can be the final villain of the game (with previous bosses disguising themselves as Lupus).
18) What is your LEAST favorite genre of video games? (ex. fighting, sports, shooters, etc.)
Sports games, or at least any of the SERIOUS ones. I do like sillier more arcade-y takes on sports games like the Mario sports titles.
19) Is there a game out there that you feel was unique and didn't get enough love?
Baseball Simulator 2.000 and Tail Concerto.
20) Have you ever verbally abused a game because you couldn't beat one of the levels and/or bosses?
Anyone who's seen my Prepare For The Randomness or Let's Play videos should already know the answer to this.
21) Do you own any VG apparel?
Yeah, but mainly because I have a distinct love for T-shirts.
22) What are your thoughts on the live-action Super Mario Bros movie?
I'd rather watch Double Dragon, at least it seems to be aware of how stupid it is.
23) On that note, what did you think about the live-action Street Fighter movie?
Quick! Turn the channel!
24) Who's hottest out of the KOF chicks?
Man, there's a lot of SNK hotties, but if I have to choose one, I think I'll go with Athena. Her name is magic.
25) Do you say "old-school" a lot when you're having a VG conversation with others?
Sometimes, I guess, maybe.
26) Have you ever lent someone a game and they returned it to you damaged?
Hrm... not that I recall.
27) Do you own any imported games?
Yes, in fact my import copies of Twinkle Star Sprites and Magical Drop are the only reason I still own my Saturn.
28) Are you ready for this meme to be over, or could you keep going?
Not really, I want some questions on handhelds, dammit!
29) In this scenario, let's pretend you're going to get a video game tattoo! What would you get and where?
Blinky from Pac-Man.
30) Have you ever cried after you beat a game? If so why?
Okami.
Nope.
