Another fun list...
TonicBH:
I remember from the Tyco WOF 1992 board game (first edition) when the puzzle was "BACK TO THE FUTURE", on the "A" slide, showed no number (to signify where the A is).

(I can only think of one.)
Who Wants To Be a Millionaire? 1st edition: A million-dollar question reads
"What power did the mythical Philosopher's Stone hold? A: It can find water B: (Something else that i can't remember) C: It can turn lead into gold D: It can grant eternal life"
The game says that C is the right answer, but if I remember my Harry Potter, both C and D are correct.
Anyone have any to add? [/quote]
One that I dispute is the question on Popsicles...asking which is the most popular flavor? I can't see orange winning the poll...
And we don't need to mention the gaffe's by Endless in the TPiR gamae.
LA the DJ:
While not exactly errors, the Ideal TTD home game contains many questions that are so vague or poorly written that they could have more answers than the one listed.

The only one I can think of:
The $25,000 Pyramid box game (Cardinal, 1986) - with the poorly-blackened out:
"RULES FOR THE $25,000 and $1,000,000 PYRAMID"
heading the top of the rulesheet.

[quote name=\'GS Warehouse\' date=\'Nov 3 2003, 11:43 PM\'] [quote name=\'zachhoran\' date=\'Nov 3 2003, 10:12 PM\'] Joker Joker Joker included no $1 or $5 bills in play money, but had $25 and $75 bonus round cards, meaning the player possibly could not be paid the exact amount. [/quote]
Umm, I have the JJJ game, so I know that it did include $5 bills. [/quote]
I remember my copy didn't, so maybe that error didn't apply to all JJJ games made.
The 1986 TPIR game had players using the "pricers" that game with the game for IUFBs, some PGs, and the showcases. The prices only had room for four digits, and according to their showcase rules some combinations of prizes could total over $10K(the game did say to announce that there is a 1 in front of the other numbers when that occurred). The 1999 Endless "remake" of that game only came with one pricer instead of the four pricers the 1986 MB game had.
The TJW/JJJ games allowed for an occurrence we never saw on the actual show: More than one devil could appear in a "spin" on the bonus game, as one devil was in each of the three decks of "prize cards"
