I came across something called "Hit Game Show 5-Pack"; or something to that order. It had these games:
Jeopardy! 2nd Edition [Artech Studios]
Wheel of Fortune; 2nd Edition [Hasbro Interactive]
$100,000 Pyramid [Box Office]--just kidding. It contains the Sierra version.
TV Land's Classic Trivia game
Weakest Link [Activision]
Priced at only $20.00, it wouldn't be a bad grab.

That's a mere $4 a game. That's DEFINETELY a bargain bin seller there.

Do you remember who the packager of this was? I'm sure there were Activision, Infogrames, and Sierra logos on the box, but did you see anything that might have indicated who put this collection together?

I knew someone would ask me that. There was a logo of a company [I had never heard of it that packaged it together.

I'm going shopping today, so I'll take a look and see if I can find it and we'll find out who's putting this package together..

Interesting, thanks, guys. I'm just mildly curious, because I haven't heard about this, and it can be added to the list of "Things Chris Probably Should Have Been Told About At Work, But Wasn't..."

Best Buy didn't have it; but I'm also not sure of why I didn't think of this before...I looked online and found it.
For Chris and anyone else who's interested in what this looks like:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...ogames&n=507846 (http://\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000DB4B2/qid=1077915789//ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i3_xgl63/103-6177088-2011029?v=glance&s=videogames&n=507846\")
Encore Software seems to be the packager...And I'm also guessing that D. Smith saw it online, as it's not scheduled to be released until 1 May 2004.

....which would explain why I haven't heard anything about this yet. Very good. Thanks for the legwork, Aaron. :)

Au contere.
It was sitting on the shelf, plain as day yesterday. Interesting....

I saw 2 of those games(Wheel of Fortune & Jeopardy! 2 at Sam's Club in Pennsylvania earlier this month but they were sold seperately instead of the 5 game package. Those went for $9.83 each there. Still not a bad deal there.

It's odd that it wasn't supposed to be released until May, because Media Play was stocking it on their shelves out here when I was there in early February.
It ran for around $15, IIRC. I passed.
