Seacrest is already the replacement. Sajak's daughter will likely take Vanna's spot.
Vanna has confirmed she is staying on despite Pat's retirement.

Bankruptcy comes up too often and the bonus round is way too hard. The money you win in general is super stingy.

The price is right is much better because the winnings are similar but every contestant gets multiple chances to win and never loses anything they already won.
Price Is Right is much harder because there's no guarantee you'll even get up on stage (the $1 more bidding has become so prevalent, it's ridiculous), and even then, you'll still most likely have a game where you only get one chance to win your game.
Also, there are 24 'slices' on the wheel. 2 are Bankrupt, meaning you have a 1 in 12 chance of hitting a Bankrupt (8.3% chance) on any one spin. Naturally, someone is bound to land on it at some point, and thanks to the randomness, it's possible to get consecutive Bankrupt/Lose A Turn results. As for "losing everything you've won", if you win a round, you keep what you won, regardless of how the game ends in WoF.

Fuga: Melodies of Steel
You have to sacrifice all 12 children to the Soul Cannon during the game. But that also means you'll be unable to use combos, and eventually two of the three gun slots will become unusable since you won't have anyone to man them. But doing it gets a different commentary from the military when they find the wreckage of the Taranis.

Interesting thing is, back then, games that could be completed within 2 to 5 hours costed about $40-50. They only felt longer because we kept dying and at the time it was pretty rare for games to have a save feature. Instead many of them had limited continues and when we didn't have any more continues after losing our last life, it was back to the beginning. Hell some games didn't even have continues.

As a matter of fact, I've read that some developers deliberately made games difficult so that kids wouldn't be able to just simply rent it and beat it over the weekend. Games like Contra, Battletoads and The Lion King are often used as examples when this is talked about.
True. Because unlike arcades where you kept feeding the game quarters to keep playing, you're not with console games, so to get their money's worth, some games became Nintendo Hard. (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NintendoHard)

So I don't get lost? Believe me, before this was a common thing, players used to spend tons of time running around in a room with all the enemies dead trying to find where they're supposed to go next.
Back in the 1980s and 1990s, some games you basically had to draw your own map of the game world to avoid getting lost.

Actually had that happen to a coworker couple years ago. It started a few days prior, they had a seizure in the paper towel aisle, and had to go by ambulance to the ER. They returned to work a few days later, but then the Sunday after (I was off that day so didn't learn about it until the following Tuesday), he wasn't feeling well, and for unknown reasons, he went and sat in the personnel office instead of the break room. It's believed he had another seizure, and fell off his chair, and hit his head on the ground. It being Sunday, nobody else was in the room, and by the time someone found him (about 2 hours later), it was too late.The room has motion-detecting lighting which shut off after 15 minutes of no movement detected, hence why nobody checked the room for him.
