What game was that?

Welcome to the first installment of the "What Game Was That?" series.

Rules are as follows:

One person gives a clue to an retro/classic game, the first person to guess the game correctly gets a point. That person who guessed correctly then gives the next clue for someone else to guess, and so on and so forth. The person with the most correct guesses (points) at the end is declared the winner. The first series will conclude at ten points.

Second guesses are not permitted. If you currently have a guess posted without confirmation that is the right or wrong answer. You do not get to guess another game in the meantime. This to prevent people from mass-guessing games.

Winner of the first series will acquire " Retro Champ" just under your joined date.

First Game Clue: This classic adventure game featured a mine-cart riding sequence.

Donkey Kong Country comes to mind but surely thre are hundreds.

No. Hundreds... you think? I'll narrow it down with an extra clue - it's a NES game. :)

Bionic Commando on the nes had a level where you had to ride a Mine cart.

No, here's another hint. You had to collect 100 of something to get to the final boss.

Umm Impossible misson?

Ok perhaps the first game is a tad hard. Rather large clue coming up.

Fill in the dots and you'll have it: F........ A......... O. D....

Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy!!

ok this game had a character called soda popinski :D

never heard of that character...system?

I have a suggestion that people make clues that are not easily searched. I've never heard of soda popinski, but a simple search did the trick. I'll sit out of this question though.

I'm not gonna sit it out :P

It was Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!

I'm thinking of a black and white game about a colour

finally somebody got it boy i didnt think it would take that long!!

Need a clue for the next game?

yes, clue now please

GameBoy Pocket

wait so the cartridge is black and white?

I don't think I'll answer your question reaps....just think about the clue :D

one more clue come on!

OK, but not something as obvious as the cartridge colour. I can only think of one game with a black cartridge, and it wasn't this one

^clue

man am i determined to win this just let me think...

OK...

Quick everyone, quess while he's thinking :P

killer instinct is only black cart i remember?

Ah hah i think ive got it.

wait he said the cart wasnt black I guess Pokemon Red and Blue as they were in black and white and they had red and blue in their names so its about colour.

Perfect Dark on the GBC had a black cartridge, didn't it?

All gameboy colour games that could also work with the old gameboys were black(or dark grey really), whilst all GBC only games were transparent.

All I can think of are the Pokemon games, but I don't think that's right.

Yes, that's right, it was Pokemon Red/Blue!

lol Brother Estapol, why do you doubt yourself?

Next question please, ima gonna nail it, hopefully anyway...

Waiting for R3AP3R to ask something. In the meantime, could we get the scoreboard on the first page of this topic fixed. Brother Estapol did not guess the game first, R3AP3R did, and is therefore entitled to a point.

OK the game I'm thinking about is a GB game (old one) and you the name of the character's weapon is in his name.

so let me get this straight.

You are a character, named "(insert name here)"

Your weapon also contains the words "(insert name here)"

In other words, your name can be found in your weapon's name

I'm assuming it's an RPG?

your wepons name is in the main charries name and their is only one weapon. Its not an RPG

hmm..nothin comes to mind

Another clue?

its a platform game.

System?

I already said GB you $#@% jks

Ghosts 'n' ghouls?

ok the game is called *****man and the ***** is the name of the weapon that he uses.

bomberman!

I'll assume I'm right, so

I'm thinking of a game about heroic animals.

^ That could be quite a few games...
