Yes, that's the general argument. I beg to differ, though. What's the harm in putting a Mr. Saturn in there? A Beam Sword? Or really, anything but the Blaster, Super Scope, Hammer, Bob-Omb, Starman, Heart Container, Maxim Tomato, Food, Home-Run Bat, etc. You get my point.

Take poker for example. It's a game of skill, too. If you removed the cards and just gave some guys sitting at the table a stack of chips, then you'd have a pretty pathetic version of poker, wouldn't you? The cards add the element of luck. They add to the required skill level of the game. But the cards alone don't make a winner or a loser. Anyone who thinks poker is just who gets the pocket aces is an idiot.

One of the ads a poker website runs when you're watching a poker match makes this case pretty clear:

"We know that when we play, a little luck helps, but luck can't explain why final tables always have so many familiar faces."
