I'm just curious to know which video game version of Wheel of Fortune you guys like best. I like both the Wii and DS versions because of the huge amount of puzzles that are in it.

As of right now, Wheel of Fortune 2nd Edition. Only because I don't have the 1998 version or the Wii version.  |

The current Wii game is very well done. It is extremely faithful to the show, has a large variety of puzzles, and is incredibly fun to play with others. It loses some very minor points for having the Final Spin always be after the third turn in R4, some of the categories don't have a voiceover to accompany it, and the sound effects on the bonus wheel don't always match up...but those things are very minor and don't detract from the gameplay at all.  I actually haven't played any other version...  |

The Wii and DS versions are very nice since they're the first to have Pat in them. As for the PS3 version, that was the first to have the Million Dollar Wedge. I was looking forward to the PS3 version's release when "Jeopardy!" came out for it back in September of 2008. When I saw it was released on March 19, 2009, and that it had the Million Dollar Wedge, I made sure to download it that evening.
One of my first real big favorites was the N64 version. The reason why I wanted an N64 so badly was that it had the Jackpot round. It was also the first to have the old $10K prize wedge. At the same time, it had the 1995 color scheme despite it having a Jackpot round, which I think is the best color scheme in the show's history.
I also remember wanting the Genesis version pretty badly too when I first saw it in 1998 simply because the wedges just had colors on them and I thought I'd see the colors whirl around. All I had at the time, however, was a Super NES. After borrowing a Genesis from my cousin, who also lent me his Genesis game library, in 2001 to play Wheel on it, Genesis Wheel got me into the Sonic series, which I've been a big fan of for almost 10 years now.
But I think my biggest favorite would be the SEGA CD version. Despite slow loading times, I personally believe it was the most advanced Wheel of Fortune game ever created. Although the prizes were limited and two extra columns were added to the puzzle board, the graphics are still amazing for 1994 standards and the 1989 theme music added to the loveliness of the game.
I know that was quite a bit, but I guess that's everything. ;D
