NICKELODEON ALL-STAR BRAWL ... For Noobs

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is the newest crossover platform fighting game where all of your favorite Nickelodeon characters duke it out! As a huge fan of Smash Bros and these cartoons, I feel that it is my duty to discuss this game in another episode of "For Noobs"

The problem in this game is indeed the low budget for it, but with the great income from dedicated fans i believe that in future patches the game will look a lot more fresh and playable. With the addition of new gamemodes, items, voicelines and characters. In fact the developers announced that they are working on voicelines and new additions to the game. The story here is the same as street fighter V, the game on release had no arcade mode, bad network and a small variety of characters, but in time Capcom added an arcade mode, new characters and better redeeming qualities. In addition, the dlc's might be either free or available with ingame currency.

The developers already said they would fix a lot of the things you said. The new update already got rid of the sandy infinite.. people also have to remember that nicolodeon gave them an EXTREMELY low budget. And the point of the game IS for it to be fast. People always mentions the “cons” but never mention what can be fixed.

[@TheMacroShow]

I’m just reviewing the game as it was when I played it this week, but I know updates will fix things, but these things shouldn’t have to be updates, they should’ve been there on release. I would probably give this game a 7 if they fix the voice acting alone.

[@ZillaYT.]
