@@mondopatrickthe same thing probably happend with the thomas and friends: hero of the rails tie-in video game where the wii is basically the ds version but with more higher-poly models and with motion controls instead of touching the screen with a pen
Around the time the movie was coming out they released a flash game that was just the arcade game featured in the movie. That free promotional game had a lot more love put into it than the actual video game based on the movie.
I remember as a kid I thought the DS version was the arcade game and the 3DS/Wii Version were full on based on the movie not gonna lie i think they were better off just porting the arcade game to wii instead of this blunder
I think there was a iOS app that had the arcade game in it, I played it on my iPod touch 4th gen so it likely died when apple killed support for 32bit apps on iOS
The weirdest part about the game is the intro and ending cutscenes seem to use the same models from the movie but with a different studio animating it. It's very bizarre.
That is accurate, but it doesn't look bad at all tbh. When he said the game had bad cutscenes, I was confused. Then I saw the scenes he was actually talking about lol. Worst visual novel I've ever seen.
One thing I will say (I wouldnt ever dare to say this in the video as it goes against the narrative) Is that i was never bored during my playthrough, probrably because it was super short but also cause I genuinely felt immersed by its sloppiness
Sad part is they actually made Fix It Felix Jr. cabinets, and you could play that in browser too. All they had to do was also make a Sugar Rush racing game with a few different tracks and a simple FPS Hero’s Duty game, combine them together and bam you’d have something worth buying
y’know what’s crazy though? they actually made the fix it felix jr. game ralph comes from and put it in arcade machines at disneyland/world… also as a flash game. it’s really good, too; i actually have it downloaded to my steam deck
Oh and apparently disney eventually released wreck it ralph (the arcade game in the movie) on, I guess, random arcade machines(I was blessed with trying it, IT IS A BEAUTY OF A GAME)
It’s called Fix it Felix. My local arcade has a machine of it that when I went the first time, was right next to Donkey Kong Edit: cool I was hearted, and the place is called Arcade Odyssey in Miami. Has a shit ton of Japanese games, pinball, and old games. These mfs got SegaSonic as well
@@SonodaSymphony Its shocking how they didn't get the secondary VA for Ralph from this game and Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed when the voice was at least decent. Or unless the VA was self aware that the movie was going to be disappointing.
Jesus, that ralph voice at the end sounds like ai before ai was even really a thing. I would kill for an open world Wreck it Ralph game that's, y'know, good.
@@mondopatrickFor the Power Rangers game, they literally just took an episode but added some buttons. You know what else! The buttons do shit cause it's just an episode crammed onto a disk.
The Wii version is literally a port of the DS game, that's how lazy it is. Hence the lack of FMV int he cutscenes Etc. They were just ported over dierectly.
Makes a lot of sense but is very unfortunate to hear, that would put the 3ds version in a weird spot, cause its a direct port of a DS game with pretty much no changes when the DS version is already playable on 3DS… This game didnt have to exist to be honest
Honestly, I think there’s a few red flags with the game. 1. It was only on Nintendo consoles but not Wii U despite that coming out the same year so why not have it be on 360, PS3, Wii and Wii U with seperate Handheld ports instead? 2. They should’ve taken the Fix it Felix game from the movie and made a actual game for digital storefronts which would’ve made me less pissed of the lack of a WIR 360/PS3 port. 3. Make it 3D 4. Have actual cutscenes
I got my mom to rent me this from a Redbox as a kid and I really didn't like it but I didn't want to admit I didn't like it so I just told my mom that I was gonna "come back to it later." I never did and I just wasted her money. Sorry mom.
One thing you forgot to mention is this game came out before the movie was in theaters. Check it out for yourself if you don't believe me. Plus there are Super Mario references in the game such as: 1. You collect coins and when you collect 100 coins you get an extra life. 2. Sometimes when Felix gets a pie he'll say "Who needs mushrooms, pie is much better." 3. If you don't move Ralph for a while he'll sometimes say "Don't like it, call a plumber." 4. When you complete a level a sped up little remix of when Mario get's a power up plays. Just thought I should put that in, but yeah, the game just seemed rushed and there's only one cheat code which just makes you invincible. It could've been better, but like you said Disney didn't want to spend a lot on it.
I didnt think the whole game releasing before the movie thing was worth mentioning because thats actually the same for a majority of movie tie in games, the games mostly pre date the movie weirdly enough and those are some cool facts man, I also recall Felix’s hammer playing the mario turtle sound effect
A Wreck-It Ralph game has SO much potential. It still has a level based system with maybe 12 levels, each leavel representing an arcade, (except longer of course), but instead of the same 2d platformer, each arcade would have different gameplay and graphics. Imagine one moment your playing a shooter and all the sudden your playing a candy themed racing game then a pixel 2d platformer. To add to that, the final boss would just be a remix of all the gameplay styles the game offered, instead of just a "press this button to punch to drain the bosses health". I know I shouldn't expect that from a old early 2010 game, but its still a shame they decided to come up with this lazy slop.
OH MY GOD do you mean the one with the remote control and the leaf, ball? I remember getting that on launch week at Toys r us when i was like 5 or 6! I actually still have it, hes just sitting on a drawer
You know if this game was a 3-in-1 variety pack with Wreak-It-Ralph being Wreak-It-Ralph, Hero's Duty being a FPS where you climb a tower to win the medal, and Sugar Rush being like Mario Kart, this would have been a good game.
It’s only gotten worse. Just look at the Switch eShop. (Do they even still do the seal of approval anymore? I’ll have to check one of my physical switch cartridges later)
THQ at least redeemed themselves with some great movie games like Barnyard, Battle for Bikini Bottom, and even Tak and the Power Of Juju, an original series that got a cartoon
That "seal of quality" literally just means "this game was officially made with Nintendo's permission and is guaranteed to NOT destroy your NES" because some bootleg cartridges tended to destroy the NES they were plugged into
I've heard some bad voice acting before, but that genuinely sounded like one of those text to speech AI things, I've never heard any voice acting as bad as that single voice clip in my life.
@mondopatrick I remember playing this game forever ago then randomly losing the cartridge for it, and for a while I honestly thought I made it up in my head, but then some of the areas shown in this video matched what I remembered. (For some reason I forgot about the horrifying looking "cutscenes", but my brain probably just blocked it out lol.)
It's telling that I saw this thinking "Hmm, it can't be worse than the DS version, right?" ...and then got hit with the lore drop that they were ALL the DS version 💀
I used to own this video game as a kid. I think it was the first to ever excite me before playing, and then massively disappoint me afterwards. Not even the M&M’s games pulled that off because the bizarre concepts were enough to keep me smiling about them. Even as a kid, I knew that this game was clunky, the “cutscenes” were god-awful, and every time you die, you get heckled by Vanellope or Calhoun. I died a lot in this game. I only finished this one because it was short, but I feel really bad for every other video game I haven’t finished because they’re all superior in one way or another. Yes, even Sonic 06.

The sad part is any sequel is a better sequel to Ralph breaks the internet, I would have rather seen a cutscene compilation of this game than that movie because I at least would have got some ironic enjoyment out of it.
Funny thing about this tie-in game -- a portion of its introductory FMV cutscene was actually used years later for an official promo of Ralph Breaks the Internet and was shown at Disney Channel, not joking lol Just look up "painfully obvious John C. Reilly didn't record this Ralph Breaks the Internet promo"
I have no clue WHY, but I was fucking obsessed with this game when I was younger. I would play through it, be a dumbass and forget about it 30 minutes later, and play through again.
I’ve noticed in the comments section that people are saying the “Fix-It Felix Jr.” official arcade game is so much better, which it obviously is. I guess I just remember playing an app version of it on someone’s iPad back when the movie was still trending. 🙂
It's a missed opportunity you can't even play the actual games in the movies like Fix it Felix Jr, Hero's Duty, and Sugar Rush. One that's very faithful and accurate to the film's lore.
when i clicked on the video i thought it'd be about the actual arcade game in the movie, and i was like "cmon it's just some simple 80s game" i was pleasantly surprised to find out of this car crash of a game lol
Imagine if they had done 2D platforming levels with this gameplay but with the pixel art of the Fix-It-Felix arcade, then you go through an on-rail shooter of Hero's Duty and finally Sugar Rush racing. Sure it would have been a lot to ask for, there's different budgets and plans... but they had done good tie-in games before this one, like Ratatouille, Cars, Wall-E, Toy Story 3 on PS3. The missed potential of tie-in games and movie-based games, even to this day (looking at you Trolls Remix Rescue on PS4)
This is literally what i mean, Wreck-It Ralph had so much potential for a video game, the possibilities were endless but they settled for Data Design level slop
yeah, I legit don't understand why they just didn't go with pixel art they could have at least added the same gameplay in the arcade game shown in the movie as a minigame.
I remember renting this from Redbox back in 2012. I loved the movie as a kid and saw it in theaters in kindergarten and I was so excited to play the game on Wii and was so disappointed.
For the DS version of Wreck It Ralph, they should’ve gotten Altron, a company who’s known for making GOOD adaptations of shows and movies into Nintendo DS games. The Phineas and Ferb series are a prime example of this. All of them are really fun experiences. And, the Wii version should’ve gotten the team behind the Across the 2nd Dimension (console version) game instead.
The fact epic Mickey 2 came out the later the same year with wreck it Ralph earlier and the quality of that game and series was way better than this game shows they cared for epic Mickey because it was successful but didn’t care for Ralph but I still can’t wait for the epic Mickey remake
I remember renting this from a redbox one time, and I finished it, which just shows how short this game is. I'd say the length is comparable to Super Mario Land 2. However, that game has the excuse of being on a GAMEBOY cartridge, and unlike this game, Super Mario Land 2 is actually a good platformer.
This was legitimately the first video game I ever played. I was insanely young and, for a while, I became obsessed with it (my parents almost never let me play video games at the time). Nowadays, it looks astonishingly awful, but I didn't realize that back then.
crazy how this game went from having amazing looking cutscenes that look like they came from the movie to powerpoint presentation cutscenes that even I can do in like high school. also I got this game for like $10 on ebay this year. And I still feel robbed
This crap was the very reason I got my parents to buy me a ds for my 7th birthday. I'm pretty sure the gameplay screenshots on the back of the box were completely different from the actual game.
As someone who unfortunately played the game in my DS when I was about 8 I can confirm and agree with everything you said. Also after the first cut scene switching to the bad PowerPoint presentation gave me whiplash.
This video unlocked some core memories for me. Every now and then I'll look through my games and be like "Oh. The Wreck-It Ralph game" and then go find Punch-Out or a Ben 10 tie-in.
I love the commentary, and your voice... I have no clue why, but it reminds me of Yakko from the Animaniacs, which I also love, so consider me subscribed lmao-
bro i saw a reel on instagram showing the opening cutscene transitioning into that ugly render, and for a DS game it is understandable (but still lazy LOL) but i CANNOT believe it's the same on the wii 😭😭😭😭 that is insane
Man I liked the original when it first came out, but I never heard of an actual game tie-in to the film. Now I see why, and I'm glad I didn't when I was younger, as it prevented younger me from spending my or my parent's money on garbage.
My theory for the cutscenes is that the makers of this game uses crappy gmod models or somewhere else to get those models, the only exception to this is the final boss witch doesn't exist outside of this game therefore they had to use either a jpeg or concept art
"We made the DS tie-in game!"

3:52 the like button glows when you said like as in similar
My friend and I smashed this game after I started to notice a crack on the disc. It's still hung on a wall like an animal
You’ve unlocked a very, very, very old memory from like late 2012 of me playing this game in my mother’s bedroom.
What do you mean “argue about which sequel is better”? There’s only one sequel and you’ve been talking about it right now for the past 6 minutes
lol
I remember this game being a lot better as a kid
It's a missed opportunity you can't even play the actual games in the movies like Fix it Felix Jr, Hero's Duty, and Sugar Rush. One that's very faithful and accurate to the film's lore.
when i clicked on the video i thought it'd be about the actual arcade game in the movie, and i was like "cmon it's just some simple 80s game" i was pleasantly surprised to find out of this car crash of a game lol
Imagine if they had done 2D platforming levels with this gameplay but with the pixel art of the Fix-It-Felix arcade, then you go through an on-rail shooter of Hero's Duty and finally Sugar Rush racing.
Sure it would have been a lot to ask for, there's different budgets and plans... but they had done good tie-in games before this one, like Ratatouille, Cars, Wall-E, Toy Story 3 on PS3.
The missed potential of tie-in games and movie-based games, even to this day (looking at you Trolls Remix Rescue on PS4)
This is literally what i mean, Wreck-It Ralph had so much potential for a video game, the possibilities were endless but they settled for Data Design level slop
yeah, I legit don't understand why they just didn't go with pixel art
they could have at least added the same gameplay in the arcade game shown in the movie as a minigame.
@@toadude It's funny and kinda sad too because the Wreck-It-Ralph web page HAD these 3 games you could easily click and play back then
@@MyStellarSpace if they already had minigames to work with, they could've easily ported it over to the wii. man this game had so much potential
I have this game on 3DS and decided to try it out and I was baffled by how atrocious it was.
Would be nice if he knew someone with a magic repairing ham 😞
The meet the Robinsons game was perfect, and i will die on that hill.
I remember renting this from Redbox back in 2012. I loved the movie as a kid and saw it in theaters in kindergarten and I was so excited to play the game on Wii and was so disappointed.
Did not think this game would look this bad
For the DS version of Wreck It Ralph, they should’ve gotten Altron, a company who’s known for making GOOD adaptations of shows and movies into Nintendo DS games.
The Phineas and Ferb series are a prime example of this. All of them are really fun experiences.
And, the Wii version should’ve gotten the team behind the Across the 2nd Dimension (console version) game instead.
This is one of those “game you’d buy at the bottom of a thrift store” type games
0:50 they made a big hero 6 game
I remember getting this on the 3ds for $10 new at target and was shocked on how short it was lmao
The fact epic Mickey 2 came out the later the same year with wreck it Ralph earlier and the quality of that game and series was way better than this game shows they cared for epic Mickey because it was successful but didn’t care for Ralph but I still can’t wait for the epic Mickey remake
"I was in third grade when Wreck It Ralph came out." "All the way back on Windows 7."
Oh my god. I'm getting old.
Felix looks like a Traumatized Handy Mandy 😢😂
I remember renting this from a redbox one time, and I finished it, which just shows how short this game is. I'd say the length is comparable to Super Mario Land 2. However, that game has the excuse of being on a GAMEBOY cartridge, and unlike this game, Super Mario Land 2 is actually a good platformer.
This was legitimately the first video game I ever played. I was insanely young and, for a while, I became obsessed with it (my parents almost never let me play video games at the time). Nowadays, it looks astonishingly awful, but I didn't realize that back then.
crazy how this game went from having amazing looking cutscenes that look like they came from the movie to powerpoint presentation cutscenes that even I can do in like high school.
also I got this game for like $10 on ebay this year. And I still feel robbed
I got it for 4$
IF ONLY I KNEW SOMEONE WITH A MAGIC REPAIRING HAMMER
"IF ONLY I KNEW SOMEONE WITH A MAGIC HAMMER" - Ralph, 2012
Thank you, Redbox, for saving us money after being so disappointed as a kid...
This crap was the very reason I got my parents to buy me a ds for my 7th birthday. I'm pretty sure the gameplay screenshots on the back of the box were completely different from the actual game.
They were probably from the movie.
As someone who unfortunately played the game in my DS when I was about 8 I can confirm and agree with everything you said. Also after the first cut scene switching to the bad PowerPoint presentation gave me whiplash.
This video unlocked some core memories for me. Every now and then I'll look through my games and be like "Oh. The Wreck-It Ralph game" and then go find Punch-Out or a Ben 10 tie-in.
I rented this game from Redbox when it came out. I don't recall finishing it.
“The only problem is this is a book with no pages” felt that
I love the commentary, and your voice... I have no clue why, but it reminds me of Yakko from the Animaniacs, which I also love, so consider me subscribed lmao-
Hahaha Thank You!
They spent all of their budget on the intro scene 💀
3:52 I like how TH-cam interprets this as "like this video" and not _like_ this video so the button lights up
Fun fact: There's actually an arcade box version of Fix It Felix Jr. complete with Qbert bonus round from the credits!
bro i saw a reel on instagram showing the opening cutscene transitioning into that ugly render, and for a DS game it is understandable (but still lazy LOL) but i CANNOT believe it's the same on the wii 😭😭😭😭 that is insane
Its such a shame because the Wii’s cutscenes are actually pretty good… Probrably the only good thing about the entire game along with the soundtrack
dude im so glad youre popping off, i hope you make it big with this channel
Thank You!!
fun fact this game was also on wii u but it was only available on the wii u e shop
Man I liked the original when it first came out, but I never heard of an actual game tie-in to the film. Now I see why, and I'm glad I didn't when I was younger, as it prevented younger me from spending my or my parent's money on garbage.
My sister got this for me as a birthday gift one time, and at that point, the game was nearly 5 years old. I seriously wonder what she paid for it
Bro you’re experience with Wreck It-Ralph at the beginning sounds like mine.
I remember getting the DS version and I tried gaslighting myself into thinking I didn't waste money on it
me with the Atgames sega genesis
Tragic but fair
its crazy how much this looks like a game on scratch
0:10 oh good
Those cutscenes SEND ME
My theory for the cutscenes is that the makers of this game uses crappy gmod models or somewhere else to get those models, the only exception to this is the final boss witch doesn't exist outside of this game therefore they had to use either a jpeg or concept art
