So when Gene and Ralph have this conversation: To them, hes a selfish, arrogant bad guy, just like he appears to them in the game (and yes, I know thats their own fault for not giving the guy a chance, but still). The Nicelanders arent really mean people, they just have the same problem Felix had: they have a completely wrong image of Ralph. Now think about that figurine of him on the cake, which looked like a stupid madman. Thats the only way they know Ralph, since they never socialize with him, never got to know him outside of work. Now think about how the Nicelanders know Ralph: in the games backstory, and during the actual game, hes the guy who destroys their homes just because he doesnt like that they built it on his spot (Anti-Environmentalistic subtexts aside here). You dont talk to someone you hate like that, no matter what the circumstances are. Hes acting normal, for once, talking to Ralph on an equal level. The Nicelanders are such jerks because they have the wrong idea about Ralph.A bit of Alternate Character Interpretation here: when Ralph returns to the penthouse after destroying Vanellopes kart only to find it empty, take a close look at how Gene addresses him hes not disappointed that Ralph won the bet, or surprised that he came back at all. Maybe 'Candlehead' was a fan given nickname, which was made canon by the game developers.
The name change could be caused outside the game's coding - characters are renamed from time to time.Not necessarily - the only screenshot we've seen so far of that part of the cabinet isn't clear enough to fully confirm the names.Jossed, Candlehead's name is on the cabinet in the racer listing.so "Candle Head" is again "Minty Zaki", and the renamed "Minty Zaki" now has her real name back, whatever it was. He made up the moniker "Candle-Head" and gave it to the cake-karted girl as part of covering his tracks, as a nameless racer would stand out too much.When Vanellope's win rebooted all of Turbo's meddling, it obviously would undo that error as well.

Why? When Turbo did all his mangling of the code to lock-out Vanellope, he must've pulled the wrong metaphorical lever while doing so, and botched some name-listings, accidentally erasing that of the sour-apple themed girl and giving Minty Zaki's name to her instead. "Candle-Head" is not really her name, and Turbo is to blame.As pointed out in the main page's Odd Name Out entry, she was originally Minty Zaki, and an unknown sour-apple-themed racer inexplicably took her name at the last minute. While this does imply the video game characters are real, it also implies that things like Dread Joker, the Crimson Dragon, Le Mu, and everything like that are just as real and aren't some ploy of a video game - they're genuine threats to anything that lives on Earth. seeing as Megaman actually used Noise Waves to travel across different places in the Real World - who's to say a Noised Cybug Turbo wouldn't escape into the real world then? This also implies that things like Noise exist and present a daily problem to the video game characters, and then there's the whole "ripping through reality" effect demonstrated by Noise Waves throughout Starforce 3. Surge Protector himself is a powerful Netnavi that controls Game Central Station. Being a video game character is essentially like being another kind of sentient EM entity, like an early form of the Wizards or the Netnavis, which in this case are specifically man-made and serve a purpose - in this case, being actors as part of a show for the players. It makes sense due to the EM-based entities in the games such as Gemini Spark, Omega-Xis and so on. Wreck-It Ralph shares the same universe as Mega Man Battle Network and Megaman Starforce.
