Quote from Original Box and Instruction manual:  "Gus Glitz is the world's first laughing, joking, animated gameshow host with computerized memory. His state-of-the-art fun will lead you through ten different strategy and action games. He'll call you by your initials, praise you when you're right and razz you when you're wrong. The winner is the one with the most money at the end of each game."

BoardGameGeek's Review of this game

1987 Time Magazine Article    "Not all the new talking toys are cuddly, cute or even particularly appealing. Galoob's Mr. Gameshow ($129) features Gus Glitz, a fast-talking, lacquer-haired impresario who stands atop a blinking, bleeping game board and hosts homemade variations on Wheel of Fortune and other word games. With microphone flailing and jaw flapping, Mr. Gameshow dishes out play money and bad jokes with equal largesse: "Nice jacket. Who shot the sofa?"
