Not to be confused with Nintendo Trivia Quiz.

Template:Infobox Nintendo Selects Trivia Quiz is a skill quiz on the Play Nintendo website. In this quiz, the player has to answer several trivia questions about various Nintendo 3DS and Wii U games that have been re-released as part of the Nintendo Selects line. An activity with a similar scope, Nintendo Trivia Quiz, is also available on the website, though it only focuses on Nintendo 3DS titles.
