Games To Play If You Like Super Smash Bros.

An early entrant to the Nicktoons universe, Rocko's Modern Life is one of the zaniest shows Nickelodeon has ever made , having a wide range of wacky characters it introduced to fans. The show's popularity has strong enough that it should have a character on this roster, and Rocko is the prime candidate h

Using his unbridled speed, ability to yell some of the most bizarre things around and his love for Dora the Explorer, he would make a formidable foe for any fighter in the arena. With his sheer unpredictability, he could have a truly varied and formidable moveset in Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl.

The announcement of Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl certainly came as a surprise, to fighting game fans and cartoon enthusiasts alike. Taking inspiration from the likes of Super Smash Bros. , Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl brings together characters from the company’s history to duke it out in arena matches. Competitors include characters from SpongeBob Squarepants , Invader Zim, and even Ren and Stimpy. It’s also great seeing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles make an appearance as well. The character options are almost as wild as some of the zaniest suggestions for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC fighters. The roster definitely seems stacked, though some fighters making their way to the arena are still unknown at the time of writing. While it’s great to see fan-favorites make the cut, there are certainly plenty of underrated mascots that deserve a spot on the roster too.

This wisecracking blue mouse lives in a hole in the wall of the titular CatDog's abode. While small, he definitely knows how to hold his own, thanks to his tough, streetwise attitude. He’s also known to crack wise with his housemates.

We hadn't thought about it until now, but thanks to @ActualAero's question on Twitter, what is the soundtrack of this game going to be like? The most realistic possibility is that it'll just use the background music from all the Nickelodeon shows and movies as stage music, with a couple of new songs created just for the game.

Seeing that one stage in the trailer pointed to or hinted at certain platform-specific characters or stages. This may not actually happen at launch but could certainly be an aspect for DLC down the line.

While a non-violent, educational duo might not seem like a great fit for a fighter ( educational and fun is a tough mix to get right ), there are certainly plenty of opportunities for an interesting moveset here. Similar to a character like Duck Hunt or Pikmin 's Captain Olimar from the Super Smash Bros. games, Moose could be the muscle, while Zee offered her support by flying around.


Those looking for another high quality platform fighter can look no further than Rivals of Aether . This 2D fighter features animal champions from four elemental factions (along with Ori and Shovel Knight guest characters), and again sports a roster full of diverse characters and playstyles. This title has interesting modes like the randomized challenges in Abyss Mode, the more casual Tetherball minigame, and Abyss Versus, which will let players take their custom builds into battle with frie

Each character that appears in the Nickelodeon: All-Stars Brawl trailer seems to have their own items or weapons to utilize in battle. The trailer shows specific items that tie directly to each character. It's hard to know if these items are just cosmetic flourishes or if they are actual weapons.

Hostile, aggressive, and defensive over his enchiladas, Crazy Steve was definitely a fan-favorite character in Drake and Josh. Jerry Trainor’s performance is a memorable one, and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl could definitely use a wildcard like Crazy Steve in the roster.

Patrick Star and Oblina are shown in the trailer making some silly moves at the camera or other characters which might lead to the possibility of various taunts to equip to use in-match. While character taunts don't really do much to alter gameplay, they do at least provide a fun and lighthearted way to express yourself in a multiplayer match.

While this easily missed thing might be a stretch, there seems to be a slight hint to possible crossovers. In the trailer, there are a few very brief glances at a spooky cemetery stage that looks like something straight out of Luigi's Mansion. However, this probably is not the case because the trailer was showing off the game for all platforms. This could still be in the realm of possibility for other properties though.


While Power Stone 2 is technically an arena fighter, there's no arguing that it's the arena fighter closest to Super Smash Bros . Power Stone 2 upgrades its player count from two to four, and focuses even more on items and environmental interaction than the first game did. The result is a chaotic Brawl Stars Strategy across multiple surprisingly dynamic stages that are up there with the best Super Smash Bros. has to offer. This series is harder to come by these days, having only been released on Dreamcast , PSP, and in arcades, but emulation should provide a good way to experience this often-forgotten Capcom clas
