Ok! Many of you know this game well from the 3DS forums, but I decided to bring it here! Ok, so the goal obviously, is to get to the Wii U Wikipedia page in the minimum amount of pages to go through as possible. So below are the instructions:

1. Click this link http://en.wikipedia....ikipedia:Random and click the Special:Random button, and it will bring you to a random wiki page

2. Search throughout the page and look at the blue linked font. Those are your pathways. You must click one to get to the next page. YOU CANNOT USE THE SEARCHBAR!!!!

3. Copy and paste the links of the pages you go through in your post below

4. See how many it takes you to get to Wii U!

Please no faking it and saying it brought you to the page! It will be reported as spam!

Now you try! Have fun!


Below is my first try at getting there! I got a total of 5 pages!

EXAMPLE:

http://en.wikipedia....in_field_hockey

http://en.wikipedia....Summer_Olympics

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_U

Done. I could've done Japan -> Nintendo -> Wii U, but it would kinda be cheating.

In my example I did Japan -> Nintendo -> Wii U! What is making that be cheating? That is perfectly fine! That is perfectly fair. So really you had 6 pages! Pretty good!

I have no idea how I had actually managed to find those links. I love this game, although it takes a while occasionally (there's one I did that took well over 20 links to get to)!

Games that refuse to use Gameplay effectively to do anything are like films that refuse to use cinematography in film to do anything.
