Find 3 games with poop being an important element in them (collectible, ennemy...).

And correct again, I think those were indeed the most obvious. By the way, doesn't the Great Mighty Poo in Conker's doesn't remind you of anything? The game went out in 2001, only 2 and half years before the Queuleube was started, and there are quite a lot of similarities between those. :P

The video game industry didn't wait for N64 or Jaguar to produce 3D video games. In fact, there was a chip that would render 3D polygons with a Super NES if added to a game cartridge.
Nintendo developped the first serious polygonal 3D game using this chip, it was very succesful and sequels to this game are still made today.

What was that game?

The Sega Megadrive went out in the very beginning of the 4th generation of video game consoles. Unfortunatly for Sega, they were major tech improvements in the 90's, and the next consoles of this generation were either more powerful, or with new features.

Thus, they created two (in)famous add-ons for the Megadrive in order to compete and to boost its sales. What were they?

Buying the cartridges isn't the only way to play your good old retro games (16 bits and older) on your console. What can you do instead?

Downloading them online??? (I can't seem to be more specific on this sorry)

Emulate them.

Or if you mean on the console then buy a flash cart.

I was thinking of the flashcart, yes. Those have gained popularity with the Nintendo DS and its Revolution4 flashcart.

Even on more recent consoles, such as Play Station, it is possible to add a flashcart extension on the serial port that allows games to be stored to and to be loaded from a MicroSD though.

A huge arcade games manufacturer decided one day to release a home console version of his arcade system. What was that console?

Well, Neo Geo is the name of the arcade system, the console doesn't have exactly the same name.

Neo Geo color

Nope, Neo Geo Color is a model of Neo Geo Portable, which was a late portable version of the home console I'm talking about.

Is it the Neo Geo AES, or Advanced Entertainment System?

Re: Video Games Knowledge Quiz

The Jonster is correct. When the AES first went out, it was on sale for the rough equivalent of 1.300 current dollars. It had success as a luxury console however. And in 2015, SNK made the Neo Geo X, which is a reboot of the AES containing 20 games in its ROM.

Amiga was maybe the most famous computer made by Commodore.

The operating system was split in two parts, the first one was the core components and the boot section, and the second one was the desktop environment. How were they called ?
