* DifficultySpike: In ''Blast'', Kablooey's stages are where the game begins to get harder. Case in point, the boss level for the world deviates from the previous three as the player plays with each of the three previous masters before going back to suing Kablooey for the duel with Fnord.
* FanNickname: Jimmy is sometimes nicknamed Not-Jimmy in ''Peggle Blast'', seeing his redesign.

to:

* CharacterTiers: ''Deluxe'' and ''Nights'' have a higher variance in the quality of the Peggle Masters' powers than other titles. Cinderbottom and Hu are considered the best (with Warren getting close in ''Nights'' due to changes to Lucky Spin), and Kat Tut and Tula are considered the least capable.

Versions of ''Nights'' that are come bundled with the original game lack the exclusive ''Deluxe'' only use ''Deluxe'''s music in stages.
** ''Dual Shot'', the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS port of ''Deluxe'' and ''Nights'', has quite a few problems resulting
from the PC version, as well as DS's limitations.
*** Marina is not in
the DS version missing Marina.game - the stages in ''Nights'' go straight from Master Hu's to the five Master Levels.
*** The alterations to physics and how they apply to the ball and bricks make the "Extreme Slide" style shots much more difficult than on other versions.
*** The Zen Shot power isn't as reliable at improving shots, making Hu's levels a DifficultySpike.

* SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound:
** The drumroll that plays when you're about to hit the last orange peg.
** The choir that plays when you get a free ball.
** The sound the ball makes when it hits the pegs after you've scored enough points to get two free balls (75,000 in ''Deluxe'' and ''Nights'').
** Batrina's "Sonic Shriek" in ''Blast''; meant to be a GlassShatteringSound but it actually sounds quite epic. Batrina's an opera singer so it's a given.

* ThatOneLevel: Any level in Peggle Blast where you have to deliver items into the bucket, with no way to shoot them separately. The first example is Stage 29 where ''every'' peg is holding an egg above them. Not only does it make it much more harder to clear the pegs safely, you also have to perfectly time the bucket or else they'll fall out. Given that you also fail the level for losing any bucket delivery items, it makes timing your shot a huge hassle.
* ThatOneSidequest: Peggle 2 has several;
** Target Practice is considered to be that one Trial that requires perfect timing. Not only do the pegs move extremely fast, but so fast you have to take advantage of a new mechanic they implemented; the ability to slow down the pegs or fast forward them so you can time your shot.
