It is, though the question was a bit ambiguous.

Super Mario Bros was the best selling, as it was bundled with the NES console... in that respect, Minesweeper / Solitaire are probably the best "selling" games.

For game sales alone, the highest seller is Super Mario Bros 3...

but anyway,

Over to thehut!

I figured it would be one of SMB or Sonic the Hedgehog.

Staying with the Video game theme then, over here it was known as the Sega MegaDrive, in the USA it was known as....?

Ok then, well heres a totally random question for you....

Which famous person invented the words "assassination" and "bump"??

Cardinal Sin · Post by **Cardinal Sin** » Wed Jun 07, 2006 5:00 pm

Right, since he invented loads of words & phrases, I'll go for Shakespeare.

I'm back in play!

As you probably know, Richard Whiteley was the first person to be seen on Channel 4, (and Carol Vorderman the first woman), but whose was the first voice to be heard on Channel 4?

i have a suspicion it might be william g stewart, i know he has/had a big stake in channel4.

Your suspicions are unfounded.

However, it is somebody of the same ilk as William G Stewart and Richard Whiteley.

Never heard of him, but you're definitely on the right track thinking of mediocre day-time quiz shows of yesteryear.

roy walker?

Cardinal Sin · Post by **Cardinal Sin** » Thu Jun 08, 2006 11:22 am

Another good guess, but it's not right.

Another clue: Think of mediocre day-time word-based quiz shows of yesteryear.

And it's not Tom O'Connor.
