Sure, these days have almost every game sporting the newfangled 3D, but way back when, everyone had to live with plain old 2D. 2D, or two dimensions, limit the game to scrolling backgrounds, but some games even now make use of this basic concept.
The feudal period of Japanese history, which was dominated by powerful regional families holding large areas of land (daimyo) and military warlords (shogun), between 1185 and 1603 AD.
Any game that involves jumping on an enemy's head as an attack, such as in Super Mario Bros.
Take an item and throw it at the enemy.
It's arguably the one move that symbolizes the medium to those outside it. The ability to jump, be it onto a building, a platform, or a skull, is one of the all time most important abilities ever put in a video game.
This concept is for games in which at least one of the main characters is male.
A mascot is an iconic character heavily used in the advertising and marketing of a product, franchise, business, or company. Notable mascots include Mario, Sonic the Hedgehog, Ulala, Mickey Mouse, and the Big Daddies.
Any character you can control in a game is a Player Character (PC), as opposed to a non-player character (NPC), which is a character that can only be controlled by the game.
Whether it be cigarettes, cigars or pipes, tobacco or otherwise, everyone knows that smoking is bad for you - and that it makes you look undeniably cool.
A two-dimensional image or animation overlaid into a scene. The foundation of early 2D games, making up everything from props to the player-controlled character.
An art style prevalent in anime in which a character or other item is rendered in smaller proportions in order to make it small, cute, and cuddly.
Games whose main character is so egotistical that the whole game just HAS to be named after them.
