I do find this interesting because I never knew about these type 1 and 2 based games and how they do come into certain categories and people do find fun with have strategies to them. And then type 2 games are all about reflexes and quick thinking. This would come into games such as Mario. A bit more fast pace games and dont require as much thinking. I am a type 2 base player. I don't like sitting around too much when it comes to games I like to get straight ...
