* {{Expy}}: Whiffle Boy is one to ''VideoGame/MegaMan''. When you consider [[Creator/{{Capcom}} who was making Disney's videogames at the time]], it kinda makes sense...

!!This episode contains examples of the following tropes:

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Mr. Banana Brain's design looks like a full-on parody of Mr. Potato Head but with a banana instead and was merely an explosive used by Quackerjack to cover his escape. All his other appearances made him look less like Mr. Potato Head and had him become a ventriloquist dummy used by Quackerjack.

* OneHitPointWonder: One successful hit is enough to take Whiffle Boy out.
* ParentalHypocrisy: Gosalyn calls out Drake for telling her that video games will rot her brain, only to catch him playing video games and signing up for the same video game contest she signed for.
* TheyKilledKennyAgain: Whiffle Boy gets repeatedly killed by his enemy, the Weasel, and once [[NiceJobBreakingItHero accidentally by Darkwing]]. Justified, since he's a video game character.
