Hey guys, Bkstunt here doing a walkthrough on the gameboy game Jeopardy!
Platinum Edition.
This game is obviously based on the hit TV trivia show Jeopardy! As jar as I
know there were FOUR jeopardy games released alone on the gameboy:
Jeopardy!
Jeopardy! Sports Edition
Jeopardy! Teen Tournament Edition
and what THIS guide is for:
Jeopardy! Platinum Edition.
Out of all of those, this is the only jeopardy game that doesn't have a faq
for it (which is the ONLY reason I'm making one!).
This is also an effort to help out the GameBoy FAQ Completion Project located
at Gamefaqs.com, which is a project designed to have a FAQ for every gameboy
game released. If you feel like helping, go over to the contributor boards at
gamefaqs and help out!
Also, this guide was written rather quickly and probably won't see any
updates barring any HUGE piece of info I missed, which is doubtful. Since
it's a habit though, here's my email (Y'know, in case you want to send a
lovely "Thank You" email or something).

THINGS TO KNOW:
===============
Ah, Jeopardy! The famous game of answers and questions!
In case you -DIDN'T- know, to play jeopardy you select categories on a giant
board, and then receive an answer. You than have to give the appropriate
question as an answer (and MAKE SURE you FRAME it as an answer!). Example:
A - The guy who wrote this walkthrough.
And the "Answer" would be:
Q - Who is Bkstunt?
I'll be putting all the answers and questions in the section down below,
listing all of the categories by alphabitical order. The BEST way to find
what you are looking for is just by searching for the category NAME with
CTRL + F. The answers are in descending order as well.
There are also TWO rounds to Jeopardy, and the second round has "Daily Double"
questions where you can wager money before the question.
Final Jeopardy questions will be BELOW the regular questions. Again, just
search for what you need. Do note that, after playing through this game
MANY, MANY times, I've found the "Final Jeopardy" section to be VERY GLITCHY,
often times not working AT ALL. I've googled it and it seems it happens to
a lot of people.
Also, if you DON'T know an answer, you will LOSE the amount of money on
the category instead of GAINING it. Therefore it is better to NOT try and
answer things you don't know.
There seems to be only two players as well (there are usually three on TV),
and your competition seems to be determined randomly.
Also, many of these questions are aimed towards residents of the U.S., just
FYI. If you're not from the U.S. you may have to work harder!
