Wreck-It Ralph

Wreck-It Ralph is a 2012 platforming video game released for the mh:awesomegames:Nintendo Wii, mh:awesomegames:Nintendo DS and mh:awesomegames:Nintendo 3DS. It was based on the film of the same name. It was developed by Pipeworks Software in association with ImaginEngine and published by Activision.

Wii and Nintendo 3DS Versions

 * 1) The only two cutscenes that are outsourced and animated by Disney are the beginning and ending cutscenes, the rest of the cutscenes are poorly done 2D cutscenes using the character models from the game, similar to Fight Club.
 * 2) * The two cutscenes animated by Disney, while decent, have multiple errors.
 * 3) ** Felix's hair goes from his usual brown hair to his hair being the same color as his skin in one scene.
 * 4) *** Despite taking place after the movie, King Candy's name is still on the leader board in the race.
 * 5) *** The cutscenes lack sound effects, and only plays the Game Central Station theme.
 * 6) *** While not noticeable, there are some models clipping.
 * 7) *** One of the backgrounds (in the Cy-Bug invasion scene) start to have frame-rate issues.
 * 8) Ugly graphics even for late 2012 standards, as the game looks like a late PlayStation 1 game. The character models look terrible and Ralph looks weird because of it.
 * 9) The control layout on the Wii version. It wants to play like an old-school platformer (hence the Wii Remote being held horizontally), but you have to reach for certain buttons just to help you progress, making the controls feel very awkward.

Nintendo DS Version

 * 1) The graphics are even worse in this version, while the Wii and 3DS versions' graphics look like a game made for the original PlayStation, the graphics in the DS version look like an SNES game, as the character models look horrible especially Ralph. Even the DS' launch titles from 2004 had better graphics.
 * 2) Due to lack of space of a Nintendo DS cartridge, the 2 animated cutscenes were replaced with 2D cutscenes in which look awful.
 * 3) This version is pretty much not necessary to make, since there was already a Nintendo 3DS version, especially since this version can be played on the 3DS through backwards compatibility.

Overall

 * 1) Completely nerfs the movie it's based on. We have a movie that features an 80s-style arcade game, a shooter and a racing game and their main priority for the gameplay was a barebones side-scroller.
 * 2) The score system is very flawed, every coin you collect gives you a whopping 25,000 points, in which if you collect many of them. You can rack up lives very easily, providing no challenge at all.
 * 3) While some of the voice actors of the movie returned (Vanellope for example), Ralph's voice actor John C. Reilly (possibly due to budget issues with the game) didn't return and was replaced by Brian T. Delaney in which sounds off and sounds way too deep to be Ralph.
 * 4) * The voice clips also tend to be repetitive at times.
 * 5) Poor presentation: The trailers for the game do not show gameplay at all, and instead show the beginning cutscene of the game.
 * 6) The story is extremely laughable, as it just involving Ralph watching a Sugar Rush race sometime after the events of the movie, only to accidentally drop a Cy-Bug egg that he just happened to have on him for some reason, causing a swarm of Cy-Bugs to infest the arcade which Ralph and Felix have to stop.
 * 7) * Speaking of the plot, the game also expects that you have already seen the movie before playing it, as some parts of the ending (such as Vanelope becoming "president" of Sugar Rush and Felix and Sgt. Calhoun getting married) are only mentioned in the game's opening. Not helping is that this game released before the movie in all countries, meaning that most of the ending from the movie has been leaked thanks to this game.
 * 8) Can be completed in little over an hour. To pad out the length, you are given the option to play the game again with the New Game Plus mode, which makes the game even worse than it was the first time around.
 * 9) Lacking and also repetitive soundtrack, as it only has 6 songs in total.
 * 10) Vanellope and Sergeant Calhoun do not appear anywhere in the game, except in cutscenes and voice lines only. The most these characters do is praise you when you beat a level, or scold you (even going as far as insulting you in some cases) when you lose a life/get a game over.
 * 11) Has only three different worlds (all of which based on Fix It Felix Jr., Sugar Rush, and Hero's Duty respectively), and the only differences between them are the visuals.
 * 12) Some of the platforming is impossible to complete without taking damage due to abysmal level design in these areas, and terrible obstacle design.
 * 13) When you reach the end of each world, you can't even fight the boss. Instead, you have to play through all 12 platforming levels and THEN you can fight the bosses.
 * 14) The flying wheelbarrows. Who in their right mind thought that this would be a good obstacle? No, really. And besides, they're almost impossible to avoid without getting hit.

Nintendo DS Version

 * 1) The voice acting while repetitive, is rather impressive for DS standards. Since DS games rarely have full-on voice acting in them. Especially since it's released near the end of the DS' lifespan, less than 2 years before they discontinued the system in 2014 worldwide, and then stopped making games for it that year with Big Hero 6: Battle in the Bay.

Wii and Nintendo 3DS Versions

 * 1) The 2 animated cutscenes are pretty well done and are just like the movie, despite some errors.

Overall

 * 1) Sarah Silverman reprises her role as Vanellope in this game.
 * 2) The soundtrack while lacking and being repetitive, sounds pretty good.
 * 3) At least it does a better job with sticking to the continuity of the Wreck it Ralph universe than the actual Wreck it Ralph sequel itself, Ralph Breaks the Internet, because of the extreme amount of plot holes present in the film, relating to the rules of the movie's universe. And this is all despite being considered a decent movie by many.
