That would be a fun game show! There's something like 9,000 NES games, and another 2,000 gameboy games.

Contestants answer trivia about old school games for the chance to spend their points on the right to listen to 5 seconds of an old midi from NES or Game Boy games. Every right answer gives you a star.

If they guess right, they have the chance to spend more points, or pass to one of the other two contestants.

At the end of the second round, the person with the least amount of stars is eliminated. Then after the third round, it happens again leaving only 1 contestant who goes to the bonus round. And the bonus round could be you play one of those nintendo world championships against last weeks winner. If you beat him, you go on to return next week, and next week, until YOU lose. Racking up more stars as you do. When you finally cash out your stars is 1 star = $1,000.

Damn. I'd watch that.
