What tabloid, because my copy of the New York Post is all about Bat Boy eloping with Kim Kardashian. Nothing about China in there.

Actually, the ban just applied to video game consoles. Nintendo actually made a device called the iQue player to bypass the ban.

(Interestingly, some Ocarina of Time speedruns use the iQue version because it's faster for the category.)

Video games weren't banned in China just most video game consoles. PC gaming is HUGE in China, Nintendo sold consoles during the ban, pirate/knockoff consoles were everywhere.

Definitely. Though, firecrackers are still pretty badass there nowadays. Except they don't care about 4th of July anymore, only the new year. :P

They also had a guy (Cant remember his name) who was so intelligent he could force kill people in an argument with his words. He invented the wooden oxen and it can move without any gas or materials all by itself.

No, he swung his fan around and he went up to this one guy who was really old. He told the guy that he was a disgrace to the world and to china. The guy had a stroke and died.

It isn't really that hard to scare someone really old into having a heart attack though.
