Video Games

1. Name a type of animal breed that can be a neighbour in the Animal Crossing series
2. Name a console released by Sega
3. Name a character that appears in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, 2018's Nintendo Switch game
4. Name a film that has been adapted from a video game
5. Name one of the "types" in the Pokemon series, other than "Fire", "Water" or "Grass"
6. Name a video game where zombies are featured prominently
7. Name a button that features on any PlayStation controller
8. Name a game that people play on their mobile phones, other than "Candy Crush Saga"
9. Name one of the "Killers" on the 2016 video game "Dead By Daylight"
10. Name an original game developed and released by the company 'Valve Corporation'

For pointless:

#1 - I'm looking for a breed of animal here that isn't too specific; I am not looking for a villager's name and I won't accept it.
#2 - This can be a home console, or a handheld (if they even did those). I won't accept arcade machines.
#3 - They must be a playable character. I'm not familiar with the game but if there're any NPCs in it (in the backgrounds, perhaps), they won't count.
#4 - Pretty straightforward; the video game has to have been released before the film.
#5 - There are 18 identified pokemon types, so take away the 3 in the question and you have 15 acceptable answers. "???" and "Shadow" are not acceptable answers.
#6 - Open to interpretation, but I think there are enough in this genre to get annoyed if someone says "Oh there was a zombie in this Luigi's Mansion game once "
#7 - The PlayStation controllers I am considering are for the PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4 and PS5. Any other consoles or handheld devices are not wanted.
#8 - Pretty open category here, it has to be a game though and not just a social media app.
#9 - There are, as of next Tuesday, 21 Killers in this game. Any that were trialed and scrapped prior to release do not count.
#10 - Whilst responsible for the game service Steam, Valve Corp. are directly only responsible for the development and distribution of 38 different games: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Valve_games Any cancelled in development, or currently under development, do not count.

This is horrific

I was just joking, I am very thankful that you're running this and I appreciate the effort you're making.

I was going to go Oxfam but wasn't sure if it would be accepted

[Cherie]

Congratulations Jake on a zero score

[Shaun]

Just to clarify with #1 for Pointless, I will be consulting this list as the correct options: https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Species

As the list explains, there are some differences to the 35 species named at the top, but I'll only accept those 35. Once again, I can't name examples without Top Answers being spoiled, but I will be merging different sub-species into the overarching name if they are given as Pointless answers.

These questions are quite vile and ridiculous.

[Calderyon]

No they are not.

Imagine scoring 5 but it's literally the worst


DEARY ****ing me

[Ammi]

...Imagine all the people, frustrated with that 5 piece...(...that’s the only rhyme I could think of, even though it doesn’t make sense...)

...we may say you’re a dreamer, Babs, but you’re not the only one...

[Ammi]

...deary me......

[Ammi]

...I hope someday you’ll get a zero...or even a number one....

[Shaun]

We're straggling a bit with these answers. Received them from Jake, Amy Jade, James, MTVN, Rob!, Smithy, Strictly Jake, Cherie, Calderyon, Jess, Lucas, Mitchell and Niamh so far.

That leaves Tony Montana, MB, Cal, Babayaro, Denver, AnnieK, Matthew and Daniel

[Jessica.]

Gonna answer mine now!

[Black Dagger]

I'm a gaymer but most of the forum aren't so it was difficult going for obvious top answers lol

[Mitchell]

I’ll sort my answers out this evening

[Shaun]

Some teasers:

- Everyone bar 1 person has named the same PlayStation button in Top Answers
- Everyone bar 1 person has named the same Super Smash Bros. Ultimate character in Top Answers
- There are only 2 questions in Pointless where everyone's submitted a unique answer so far

I won't be accepting answer edits based on these teasers

[Mitchell]

Just realised whilst doing pointless that I’ve proper ****ed up on one of my top answer questions
