Pat Sajak doesn't allow his face on any other products other than the show.  That is why you never see him in any WOF video game.  He said he doesn't want his children to see his face all over the place, or something to that effect.

In \"Rain Man\"(1988), A few game show clips and mentions were in the film, like when Raymond turned on the TV in the hotel, and a clip of Wheel of Fortune came up, Raymond recited the show's opening spiel. Or when Raymond says he has \"26 minutes till Jeopardy!\". In the motel, Raymond and Charlie were watching Jeopardy, and Raymond guessed the answer before the contestant.

Also, a clip from $otC can be seen when they first arrive at Walbrook early in the movie...and when they stop driving because of the rain later on, Raymond watches The $25K Pyramid in the motel room (I think it was the same scene as the J! clip).
