@ Versa - I don't know who cares about Jack Thompson. I was asking Vongore to extend his remarks, and I was speculating one likely line of thought.
@ Karth - Yes, the "arcade" seems like a plot device, but I don't see evidence that they are faithfully recreating arcade games in services of that device. I spot a Bowzer, more associated with console, rather than arcade. I spot a Dr. Robotnik, more associated with console, rather than arcade. Zangief (and is that an M. Bison too?) started in arcade but I suspect equal number of folks were introduced to streetfighter via console as arcade. I see something that looks like MarioCart, console game. if your major is film studies, I would think you would, you know, study what's in the film.
On rewatch, I still think that Ralph in Call of Heroes looks like he is in Gears of War armor with a see-through visor-HALO-helmet. Maybe the enemies look more like the enemies in 3-d metroid games, but i dunno.
Also, on rewatch, it's disappointing that Disney didn't take a more unique direction in art style. Wreck-it-Ralph is a pixelated game, but they animate him like toy-story. I'd rather see a more pixelated real-life-Ralph than another-toy-story-esque look alike (as, when in the Call of Heroes suit, he also looks like Buzz Lightyear)
