Line 44:
** Ralph is also shown eating cherries as big as watermelons liberated from ''[[Pac-Man]]''.
* [[Gentle Giant]]: Ralph, when not playing the bad guy.
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: When Ralph discovers that they're holding a 30-anniversary party for his game which he is not invited to, he's even angrier to learn that [[Pac-Man]] ''was'' invited, furiously complaining that the "cherry-chasing dot-muncher isn't even in this game!" Even kids too young to "get" the actual joke would probably think that sounds kind of dirty.
* [[Good Costume Switch]]: Implied with leaked art of Ralph in [[Super Mario Bros.|a familiar red and blue]] color scheme versus the orange and brown seen in the game art and official screens.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Ralph attempts to pull this off.
Line 57 ⟶ 58:
* [[Magic Tool]]: Felix's "magic hammer". To the point that he's unable to use it to break out of a jail cell, because the hammer only makes the cell better at holding him.
* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]: In his game, Ralph is a hulking, raging brute who fully intends to smash the building full of innocent tennants. When the game isn't being played, he is a [[Gentle Giant]] who wants to have a friendly relationship with the other characters in his game.
* [[Opposite Gender Protagonists]]: Ralph and Vanellope. One's the ''villain'' of a video game, and the other a playable hero. Being the [[Big Bad]] of a game doesn't [[Good Feels Good|feel good]], and leads to Ralph being treated badly by the other characters of his own game. Thus, he defects, or "goes Turbo", and finds Vanellope in the candy-themed racing game ''Sugar Rush'', where the two bond together as Vanellope tries to use her status of being a "glitch" to her advantage.
* [[Pac-Man Fever]]: Despite taking place in an arcade, they seem to be consciously averting it, presenting games from different eras (albeit a mix of both real and fictional ones) and even having actual characters from different games a la ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]''. Notably, Bowser and Eggman actually resemble their official artwork with stunning faithfulness.
* [[Palette Swap]]: All the racers in ''Sugar Rush'' are the same except for their colors, hairstyles and vehicles.
* [[Punch Clock Villain]]: How the video game baddies are portrayed.
* [[Retraux]]: The ''Wreck-It Ralph'' arcade game is made to look like it was made in the 80s.

* [[Spit Take]]: When Ralph says he's tired of being the bad guy, Bowser breathes fire involuntarily.
* [[Stop Copying Me]]: Ralph gets into one of these with Vanellope.
