Even to this day, that set gets considerable play in our dorm living room, and people love to play with it (even more so when they're all drunk). But considering that game is pretty "high quality" in the stunt board game scene, and that I rarely have faith in board game manufacturers anymore, I put the odds on this at 100-1, since it's not cost effective.[/quote]

Point taken, but what are they gonna put in there? 49 Solo Cups? A bag of Oreos? Some eggs and a pizza box? Or maybe they'll go the other way and throw in a few balloons and some sticks, like Endless Games' Beat The Clock.

Yep, they should stick with a stunt/rule book.

The Miiification of Pat and Vanna is very creepy.

Lol, agreed. Now take a look at Trebek.

/I don't think Pat and Vanna look awful in the trailer, just, um, short.

Trebek looks much better.  It probably won't happen, but I'd love for these three hosts to be exportable to the internal Mii storage for use in other places.

If you didn’t create it, it isn’t your content.

One of the first Miis I made when I first got my Wii was a 70s Trebek with a big-ass 'fro.  I can't wait to break the space-time continuum by having Alex Trebek 1976 playing Jeopardy!, hosted by Alex Trebek 2010.

I was thinking of a Trebek/Sajak deathmatch in Wii Sport Resort lightsaber competition, but both of those would work.

/Or Mario Kart...

I believe this is the very first time that Pat Sajak is featured in any video/PC game version of WOF!  Vanna White (and Charlie O'Donnell's voice), has been featured in many, but not all previous versions.

I'm curious to see what the DS versions look like.  I'd imagine that one screen features the puzzle board, while the other shows the wheel and the contestants.

RE: Jeopardy!--I liked seeing the way they kinda recreate some Clue Crew scenes!



Oh, while on the topic--Apparently at some websites (namely amazon.com and areyougame.com), Endless Games' new Million Dollar Password and "Classic" Password 6th edition are now available.

This is true; by his own choice. Board game, for that matter.
