Fun fact about this game: When Super Smash Con hosted tournaments for this game, they banned Michelangelo. What makes this interesting is that he isn't just the first Nick All-Star character to be banned in competitive, but also the first time Smash Con actually banned any character in tournaments, Smash Con even allows Brawl Meta Knight (only the infinite dimensional cape tactic is banned).

[@collaterale1]

They banned my favorite pizza party dude? Damn, history did repeat itself after all.

@@RioluJH That's hilariously ironic.

[@cardinmalone4974]

They banned Michelangelo because he can stall the game with his down special and infinite jump AND he has a zero-to-death combo which the opponent has no chance of getting out. Thankfully, the recent patch was already been made and now he's no longer ban or broken anymore.

I feel like this game is trying to appeal to a very specific audience. That being the competitive Smash crowd that felt burned by Nintendo's lack of support for the competitive scene. The devs of NASB are all for supporting tournaments, allowing mods, and listening to the community, so of course they're gonna get praise from them. But I have to wonder how everyone else feels. How do people who aren't really competitive players and play Smash more casually feel about NASB as a complete package? Personally, when watching game footage of it, there are times where the game looks straight up unfinished to me and I can't believe it's $50. I understand it could get better in the future, but I'm gonna wait for that future to actually happen before considering spending money on it.

[@BiGSmoke-.-]

As a casual player I haven't touched a smash like game in over a decade. I got hooked on NASB because of the nostalgia. Also of how passionate the devs are with this game unlike other gamimg developers. I bought the game for $40 and I'm having a blast with it, it's fast but it still fun for me. Although the game could use more polishing and content, I know the devs will work on it as time goes.

[@Mariobro4]

Not too competitive player here. It took a while for me to get to grip with the controls. (probably when Smash Bros controls is burned to the brain to about 95% of the global population) and the mechanics. But after some adjusting, I'm having some real good fun with it. Yes, the mechanics are different from smash, (smash attacks are a dedicated button and the guarding system) and is tuned to a more competitive edge like the hi-speed, wavedashing, etc. But it's tuned in a way that even newbies can get to grips with the mechanics with relative ease until it gets to the point to where....Yes. You too want to just wavedash just for the lols. As a complete package at the moment. If you're looking for something to play multiplayer with friends/family/online tourneys, go for it. Don't buy it at $50 if you're a solo player. Bite for $30.

@@GooeySplat I think you replied to the wrong comment, pal.

[@MidBoss666]

It was never really that niche, it was one of Capcom's best sellibg series long before it got mainstream attention with MH World, that is the reason it got so many games to begin with. It's just like with MegaTen or Final Fantasy, both series did very well way before their msinstream breakthrough, FF7 and Persona 3 respectively. On the other side we have MegaMan, super popular series, but complete floo financially (at least until now, the Legacy Collections sold pretty well), so it's never a good idea to judge an IPs success by mainstream attention.

[@CrowTRobot]

Rocko is the most surprising omission for sure, Rocko's Modern Life was the first new Nicktoon to be added after the og 3, it got a movie, there's still tons of merch being sold in stores next to all the Spongebob and Rugrats throwback merch. Hopefully he or another character will show up in DLC.

[@elitenano]

This game was made with competitive play in mind, which is why I feel like a lot of decisions, like the character choices featuring older and much more popular with the older crowd rather than newer shows or things that younger kids would like. No items despite many stages in the game not being legal, so that takes some of the fun out for causals. I don't really wanna blame the devs for that, they were simply given what to do and so they had to do it in there own way, but this is for people that want to play competitive, and not everyone wants to play that way, which is probably why you didn't like how controlling it felt, how the lack of certain things felt off-putting. With smash, you can play it how you want to, in Nick, you play competitively or in a very limited casual setting

[@eliasnicolasmiranda4940]

also Nintendo spit on the competitive side of Smash now by C&D events, not bring Rollback Netcode and the worst of all cancel Melee and the devs only want them to bring back to those glory days because of that the devs had the respect of many competitive Smash players and the game is gonna have a bright future i mean look at Power Rangers Battle for The Grid

[@bareq99]

Then they shouldn't have made it for grown a*s men with those characters This clearly should have been a game designed for casual play, many kids will pick it up just to be bored with it after a while It feels like the devs just wanted to give a sacrifice to the competitive smash cult Even tbo those toxic, manipulative pedos don't deserve anything Very few of them are worthy of a little respect in the first place!!

Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid would be another good one to cover. It's flawed but solid. The fact that they TRIED to get as many of the original cast members as possible while the show has long since moved on to sound-alikes is a big plus, and the actual fighting mechanics are a lot of fun.

Two of the more notable ones that come to mind outside of Nick All Star is Fraymakers a platform fighter starring Indie game characters and Multiversus which is all about Warner Bros characters. There's even a sequel to Rivals of Aether coming along. Oh and as a side note, I think the correct pronunciation for Ludosity is "loo-dos-ity".

On the bright side you can get music and voice acting via mods if you got the game on Steam. And if this game is successful maybe it will have a bigger budget if the sequel is greenlit.

I think the mistake that people are doing is comparing it to Smash Ultimate. It was stated (I think) that it was inspired by Smash Melee and the competitive side of Smash in general.

I'm just at a loss for who this game was supposed to be designed for. Stripping the whole thing to little more than its fighting mechanics suggests they want this to be a seriously taken fighter, but what motivation is there to start playing this over itemless, hazardless Smash? It's like that failure Icons just with actual copywritten characters. If it's for a younger demographic like the choice of IP suggests, why is it so light on the wackier aspects from party modes to items to voices and so caught up in the aforementioned mechanics stuff? Who would WANT a Nickelodeon game of all things to be taking itself this seriously as a fighter? I know there are plenty of people who treat Smash as an ultra serious competitive fighter, but every bit as much, if not more, of the playerbase has items on and just plays it bum around with their pals. The whole damned thing just seems so confused.

I will admit I can't really see how Snap can fight in a matter that would make him stand out, but it is easy to imagine Rudy drawing weapons or tools. Cosmo and Wanda can be the game's Ice Climbers. Like Snap I have a bit of difficulty thinking of a creative moveset for Rocko and it doesn't help that I haven't watched the cartoon in years, but I'm sure more creative folks can come up with something! It's the same reason I was disappointed with the Playstation All-Stars and couldn't get invested in it. Where were Spyro, Crash, Gex, and Ray-man??? Finishers would be great too! The Avatars could go into the Avatar State, Danny could use his Ghost Howl, Zim could rain DOOM upon the battlefield!

You say the gameplay is faster in Smash than NASB, but in my opinion, it's the opposite NASB allows you to move much faster and with more fluidity than Smash, you can quickly weave in and out of attacks and retaliate, which works well against swordies like Leonardo and their big range attacks ...but yeah, that game looks super rough

Why couldn’t they have the rights to the music from the shows THEY made and/or used?!!

[@Ketsu_Kitsune]

Personally, I don't feel like expecting everything found in Smash Ultimate or Brawl is fair to give to this because it's the first title put together in this sense. It'd be fairer to compare it to Smash 64 or maybe Melee all things considered rather than the games that came out later and kept adding features over time. But definitely speaking, would love to see Jenny, June and some of the cast from Kablam!/Action League Now!, the brothers from Angry Beavers (especially Dag), anyone from Madagascar/Penguins of Madagascar, Otis from Back at the Barnyard (remember that show and the movie?), Snap and Rudy from ChalkZone, El Tigre, Tak from Tak and the power of Juju, the cats from Catscratch. There's a ton of shows they could pull from over the course of the network's history, even Rocko's Modern Life.

[@LucarioShirona]

Yeah. I would say it be more fair to compare this game to Smash 64 and Melee, sadly even Smash 64 1-ups Nick All-Star by fleshing out its 'Arcade Mode'.

Okay, the lack of voice acting, I can understand (though I can care less honestly), but how are you going to call the music generic and off brand? There's Jellyfish Fish, has a theme that references Jellyfish Jam, The Dump that has the tune of the AAAHH!! Real Monsters opening, even including the Howie scream, Showdown at Teeter Totter Gulch, while having a western theme, still has a tune that fits Rugrats, the TMNT stages has a nice theme that kinda pays homage to the arcade games, overall, the songs that play in the stages really fits the shows each stage is based on, the only one I guess sounds generic is the Glove World, the rest fits them perfectly. Sorry, but calling the music generic is a major disagreement, if anything, like what do you want them to use the show's theme songs or background music taken straight from the shows?

I love the idea of this so much, but im not really looking to shell out $50 for a lesser smash clone :( hopefully they improve the game some so i can justify buying it

[@JonathanThe501st]

Items I feel are the one thing we can all agree actually could have a place in this game, and the lack of them just makes it feel subpar. The premise of whacky cartoon characters beating the snot out of each other is too strong a premise not to have items day one. Hopefully they can add them in the future.

[@ashes_blue]

This game is genuinely a ton of fun Unless you’re on console and have to wait 20 minutes for an online match only to have it lag out :)

The boxes with fan art, top supporters and patrons at the end are empty.

I love that you're bring the "What the Hell" series on this channel! There's a lot of weird video games you could do a video on. I would suggest doing a video on the weird AO rated video games since not that many people know about them.

[@bigsterman2055]

Can you review Cartoon Network Punch Time Explosion XL next?

[@MathewRenfro]

7:45 the only Skitter I want is from Doug

[@filletofish2200]

Garfield and Shredder have been data mined so eventually we get to see Garfield kick Cat Dog into orbit

[@ChiliHorse27]

Can’t watch the video because of the horrible-looking new avatar you created, sorry. I preferred the old cartoon one.

[@GigaMan91]

I'm not sure what people mean when they say they want the original songs from the TV show. Like, do they want remixes or straight rips? I sure as hell do not want rips. The music in Nick All-Star Brawl is lacking in some areas, but it's not bad, and there's potential for better tracks if they had the budget. Just take Jellyfish Fields for example. If you listen closely to it, it sounds extremely reminiscent of the Jellyfish Jam. It's an homage to an iconic scene from Spongebob. Honestly, that's probably the one track they put the most effort into. It's super catchy. Some other tracks, like Harmonic Convergence, have a good foundation, but come up way too short in length, as if it's incomplete, and is a bit too repetitive in the beginning. Also, the game is fast as hell, and it feels more responsive than Smash Ultimate to be honest.

[@Sexyweirdo96]

Screw Jimmy and Timmy for a second. Where the hell is El tigre? Manny Rivera was such a great character and the world he came from had so many characters that would fit in perfectly with this game. And on that note where the hell is XJ9? I really hope they don't end up making characters like those DLC or something you have to pay for.

[@fmsyntheses]

First suggestion for improvement is don't shoehorn stream footage in to pad out the video. I also think you probably meant to have music over the end.
