{"product_id":"jeopardy-nes","title":"Jeopardy! - for NES","description":"\u003cp\u003eJeopardy! came to the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1988, developed by Rare and published by GameTek. The television show needs little introduction: trivia drawn from history, literature, the arts, pop culture, science, sports, geography and wordplay, served up in that famous inverted format where contestants are given the answers and must supply the questions. This NES version keeps the board, the dollar values and the rhythm of the show intact, which is what makes Jeopardy! such a natural fit for a console. It is a game show you can start in seconds, with no studio audience to worry about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUp to three players can take part, choosing categories from the board, buzzing in and spelling out responses in question form. The rounds follow the broadcast structure, with values climbing in the second round and a wager riding on the last clue of the game, so a quiet evening can turn around on a single answer. Scores sit on screen for everyone to see, which is half the fun. Played alone, Jeopardy! becomes a steady test of recall against the clock. Played with two friends in the room, it becomes an argument, and that is usually when it is at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuiz games on the NES are a small and well loved corner of the library, and Jeopardy! is the one most people remember. It asks nothing of your reflexes and everything of your general knowledge, which makes it a rare NES cartridge that works just as well for people who do not normally play games. Collectors value it as a snapshot of the show at the end of the eighties, and families value it because it gets three people around one console. For a shelf that is heavy on platformers, Jeopardy! adds something genuinely different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Quiz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e NTSC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1988\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeveloper:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge Only: No Box or Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease note that this listing is for the \u003cstrong\u003egame cartridge only\u003c\/strong\u003e.
