Huh? On the Pass N Play the screen is on the Right, on the Tabletop version the screen is on the Left. The tabletop has full size spin/buy/solve buttons, and the pass n play doesn't. It's the exact same game, just the size of the wheel is different.

I'll be posting a full review later, but the game is actually fairly good - and all aspects of Wheel are represented. Not nearly as terrible as I thought.

Now that I take a good look at the two, there are differences!  The new Pass N' Play looks like a cake and should not retail for $29.99

While browsing the App Store on my iPhone, I ran across Ludia's TPIR game, currently selling 80% off for 99 cents.
When you're at the grocery game and you hear the beep, think of all the fun you could have at "Crazy Rachel's Checkout Counter!"

MORE than worth it. Of course hardcore fans like ourselves will see discrepancies between the game and the actual show, but if you're looking to play Price on the go, there really is no better choice at the moment.

[quote name=\'Hastin\' post=\'221534\' date=\'Jul 30 2009, 11:12 PM\']Bob,

That is NOT the one I saw/now own. Mine in the full size one with the big wheel. This looks the same but with a smaller wheel.

Have they canned the larger one allready?

Some pictures to prove I'm not lying:

Thanks for the pictures, and boy, it sure does look much different than what TRU's website shows (apparently their pics are more prototypical than what amazon.com shows!)[/quote]

The new Wheel of Fortune and Deal or No Deal tabletop games are now also available at Target (same prices as TRU).

Click on the link again and check out the price.  Its unbelievable!

This caught my eye--"Ships from and sold by The Last Place You Look."  At that price, that will be the last place I look.

I saw it at Toys R Us last night.  I spun the wheel, thought it was clever.  Then I remembered the last thing I need right now is more *ahem* "crap" to move to the new place, and $30 of crap at that.

DeepDiscount.com is offering up an assortment of DVD Game Shows for relatively cheap, with free shipping.  The real discount, though, comes by entering "23017" at checkout, which knocks another 50% off the price.

Karn Feud - $6.44
Match Game - $8.18

Newlywed Game - $6.77
Password - $6.77
TPIR 1st Edition - $7.93

Oh, and just because, here's Madden '95 and NHL '95 in a Plug-N-Play for $4.68.

Picked up the Million Dollar Password PC game at Best Buy. Got through the first stage and reached the $50K level. I unlocked a few things, including a new celeb. My CG partner was the retired rock star. It's a fun game that makes you think. The CG Regis looks a little creepy, IMO.

What, doesn't everybody combine an expensive Wheel of Fortune toy with the Sailor Moon Shoulder Bag Backpack ?

Another screenshot of Press Your Luck 2010 for Wii. I am impressed by how faithful to the show this thing looks.

Show me a stack of coins behind the dollar amounts on the Big Board and I'll be content.

While I was at Target today, I saw both the new Deal or No Deal ($24.99) and Wheel of Fortune ($29.99) tabletops.  As I love Wheel more, the Deal or No Deal game actually looks more fun.  In all honesty, I think now would be a good time for iToys to stop making game show games as it disappoints a lot of its customers.  If only Tiger would come back into the picture.

The box art for Press Your Luck has finally been released.  Here's a link for all the platforms: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=s...press+your+luck.

The logo is the modernized one which resembles that of the slot machines.
