    the name)



    Q2 Alex Kidd was to take the boot as official mascot of SEGA
    and to fill in his place several entries were received – most notable amongst
    them an armadillo, a rabbit which could extend its ears indefinitely and a
    Theodore Roosevelt look alike. Eventually Naoto Oshima’s design codenamed
    “Mr.Needlemouse” was chosen. “Mr.Needlemouse” was given blue pigmentation,
    boots inspired by Michael Jackson, boots’ colour (red) inspired by Santa Claus
    and a personality based on Bill Clinton’s fast reaction to trouble. This
    eclectic mix created which spectacularly famous video game icon?

    founded in Worple road, England in the year 1868. Eager to boost membership the

    using a trophy donated by the Oxford University to choose England’s best
    “sphairistike” player. Name the event.
