New! How to Be a Trivia Genius Vol. 2 - Fun Facts & Trivia about Video Games!

A short booklet of fun facts, trivia, and factoids about your favorite video games!
Do you love playing video games? Have you ever played something and wondered how it was created? why is was created? What inspired it? Most people don't realize how deep video game history can get. Simple games like Space Invaders, Pac-Man, or Super Mario Bros. have fascinating facts that most people haven't figured out. For example, Mario was originally named "Jumpman" and debuted in Donkey Kong. His name was inspired by a Nintendo landlord named Mario. We know him now as a plumber but before that he was a carpenter. Pac-Man was originally called Puck-Man. But since puck is very close to a four letter cuss word it was changed to Pac-Man.
