- WHEEL...OF...FORTUNE
- Introductions
- I never got excited about this game show. At least Jeopardy has prestige
- Overview
- Spin a wheel, guess a consonant, if it’s part of the phrase/thing that you’re trying to guess you get to spin again. Okay it’s basically hangman.
- Gameplay
- No picking your character or what they look like
- No Pat and Vanna is Green?
- AI is pretty respectful
- What’s your strategy?
- Sequels and Spinoffs
- 2 more Wheel of Fortune games on NES. Unbelievable. Just like Jeopardy
- This thing is on every console/pc you can think of.

- Why this game isn’t like SMB
