how much does being a hardcore gamer increase girl's appeal?

Suppose you saw a girl and thought she looked... average. Her teeth aren't perfectly straight, they aren't perfectly white. She has a slight lingering acne problem, even at age 20. Her "proportions" *wink-wink* aren't exactly how you'd like them, depending on your taste. She's also a little overweight.

But she can kick your ass at Spring after playing it only once. She is the North American champion of Master of Orion 2, and she knows what CPU, GPU, PPU, PSU, RAM, HDD, CRT, and LCD mean. She has been in jail three times for beating up "casuals", all of them men in their prime. She once conspired with other individuals to firebomb the Infogrames/Atari headquarters, but had to call it off because she didn't have any money for flammable liquids.

By how much does her l33t gaming skills increase her appeal to you?

I think gaming is a highly attractive trait, but my lass hates video games and computer games with a passion. She shares a name with a certain character, so I guess it makes sense...

Think classic and less common.

Think... debut on NES after big Nintendo lawsuit that may or may not have anything to do with the character name.

Alright, it isn't a traditionally female name - it is more unisex, as is the character.

I've given you so many hints... I can give you one more, and if nobody gets it in five serious guesses I'll give her name away. But know that you shall suffer undying shame.

This character has endured to this generation, being in unconventional racing, pinball, tilt, puzzle, fighting, adventure and platformer games.

Cool. Do I win cookies? Or just a lack of undying shame?

Ask AF about the cookies... I have no right to give them out.
