With good reason, Chris. It was big bucks! My folks balked too.
We weren't all as well-off as Encrules42. Dark Tower was a "grail" for many of us even before the term became popular. Fortunately the game has such a following there's a comprehensive fan site
I had the hand held one as well. Not sure what happened to it, probably in a box somewhere. However I do have and recently checked my large D&D electronic game, mint as can be, still has the bubblewrap around it inside the box. I got it from a Kay Bee Toys in West Lafeyette Indiana visiting my grandparents one summer. According to the price tag on it, it was marked down to $19.99.
I love my Dark Tower more though and it hangs around my house while poor old E D&D gets to sit at my mom's with so many other of my board games.

I'd completely forgotten the electronic games. I know I owned that handheld one, but could never convince my parents to buy the big one.
Oh man, That Dark Tower game was the best! I literally played it until it fell apart!

Hi Brian,
What is the game or toy...with the guy in the white turban?
