Matthew Skidmore: Nintendo as a video game company was around 1979 in Japan. Donkey Kong came out for Arcades in 1982. 1985 was the NES. 1988 should be SMB1 and 1993 should be SMB3.

Favorite show probably of all time. This is just perfect.

Can I just point out how amazing Phillis is? Her payout was les than her teammates because they all clearly participated in terminator things, but when given the chance, she did not take it knowing what she was about to be in for. She then was as confident and steady as I've ever seen a captain be, and that little bit of human psychology is likely why they all went for it. Revive greed and bring Daniel Avila and her back as two people on its first team. I remember that this was the one episode of Greed I could not watch solo as a kid. We were all heading to my Uncles, but to my surprise, it was on when we got there and I heard my aunt say "They're about to win two million dollars". I wish I'd seen this in full then, I was already in love with Greed and would've fallen even more for it at the time. By far, the best of the Kubrick influenced games (Millionaire, Weakest Link, etc).

"Greed" takes a massive shit on "Deal or No Deal!" This is a game about knollege and skill, rather than a shallow-minded game of luck! Why it only lasted a year I'll never know, because I know it had vary good ratings!

They may have been all cool and calm at that moment, but I'm sure they all shit bricks and freaked out about two seconds into the commercial break.

Omg I loved this show!

And upon walking, David put it best: "Forget Curtis Warren. Show ME the money." (looks like he and the team must've seen Dan's shows, including the heartbreaking $2.2 million loss)

Remember, they still didn't beat the game at this point. They can still go for 4 million. Thats why the confetti didn't fall...

In California, there was once a show (that got canned about a few weeks ago) called The Big Spin, and a person won 3 Million dollars. It was produced by the California Lottery, now it's Make me a Millionaire, which sucks....

I wonder why they didn't stop the music right after Chuck called for the 4th and final answer. That would've increased the suspense dramatically!

No other game show has such a fitting name.

@Austinbit Actually, a new version of 1 V 100 is on GSN (but: half-hour, top prize now 50k). Sadly, the others don't air.

Oh man the only one I knew for certain was that Berlin Wall was right before the 1990's. Good thing I payed attention a little bit in school. The rest is why those 3 deserved the 2 mil dollars. Carson's last show? Michael Jackson's marriage? Who the hell knows?

Yes. And 6 years ago in November, she'd go on Millionaire primetime, and pick up $64K.

This was relatively easy, IMO? Nintendo and New Coke are synonymous with the 80's, Berlin Wall falling in 1989 is modern history 101, and you can already eliminate few very known 90's events like the original early 90's Tonight Show fiasco after Carson left, Thomas appointed by GHWB in the early 90's (currently the earliest appointed justice) and his Anita Hill scandal, Jackson being at peak controversy in the 90's and having newborns then, and Jerry Garcia dying in the 90's being a fairly known fact. So despite not knowing too much about the Exxon Valdez disaster, I pretty easily figured it out as well by process of elimination and I'm not even American, considering they're US-centric questions.

Ya see, Bill Cosby introduced the Brand New Coke (in the 80's), and it'll be around forever...heheheh...

The reason the offer was in cash for that question was that a previous Super Greed team took the car offer on a previous $2M question.

They decided to walk away.

The NES was 1985. There was a small caveat about it being the U.S. release, but I'm fairly sure it wouldn't take 5 years to get overseas. ;P Still have my old grey box! ^_^

Great question. Someone's gotta' have the answer.

Definitely not Nintendo, the NES was introduced to U.S. in 1985.

That did happen with Dan, Melissa, and Curtis. Melissa had already won one, and she turned down the next one.

i missed this show!! =(

But the $2 million wasn't one person only!

I loved watching Greed! Why'd Fox cancell it if it was such a success!

I believe he/she is saying that WWTBAM had gave away two million dollars before any other game show, but they only gave away 2 million dollars once. As in two different contestants had both each won 2 million dollars, as opposed to Greed giving 2 million away in one sitting. Just a guess though, truly confusing.

I knew three that happened, and three that didn't. Nintendo and Garcia were the only ones I didn't know. I PROBABLY would have guessed Garcia, but honestly not sure.
