Nickelodeon Remaking Old Games
« on: March 22, 2018, 08:56:14 am »
     Did you all hear that Nickelodeon signed a deal with THQ Nordic to remake their older games? Here's the full article: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/classic-nickelodeon-games-are-returning-thanks-to-thq-nordic/ar-BBKwitX

     What Nickelodeon games would you like to see remade? I'd love to see a collection released for the SNES-era games like Spunky's Dangerous Day and Ren and Stimpy. Kinda like Disney Afternoon Collection. Or maybe they can remake them completely like DuckTales Remastered. Do you think we get a Nintendo Switch release for these games? I really want to see games like Battle for Bikini Bottom remade. Something that confuses me about this article though, is that the article acts like the shows listed will have their own individual game. However, shows like Catscratch and Teenage Robot never got their own game, but were included in the Nicktoons series of games.

It doesn't seem like they know if they will be re-made or re-released. Either way, I'm not too excited... Disney may have had a slew of good games on the NES thanks to Capcom, but the Nick era was after good licensed games where more common. That's not to say there aren't a few good ones, but they are heavily outweighed by the mediocre. If they make something akin to the Rare Replay package, that has like all the games, it might start to get some value... but even then, I dunno.

I would be way more interested if they where making a crossover game they put actual AAA effort into that encompassed all of Nick's lifetime, but that is a pipe dream for multiple reasons.

Battle for Bikini Bottom is a great game. Funnily enough that's what's on the front page of this article.

Agreed, they may not be great games. I actually personally enjoyed a few of them though.

I remember Ahhh! Real Monsters having a sort of Lost Vikings vibe to it, where you controlled more than one character and each one had a unique ability. You had to use them together to get through a level.

It was fun. But it wasn't implemented as well as Lost Vikings.

Ren and Stimpy Veediots and Ren and Stimpy's invention would like to have a word with you guys lol   ;D


Spongebob's boating bash and battle for bikini bottom are also good but that could just be my love for Spongebob but I do know the two ren and stimpy games, especially veediots are generally considered good :)

Spongebob battle for bikini bottom was honestly pretty amazing, I'm not sure how that even happened. The movie game was pretty good too. Maybe it's just a weird niche i'm into, but I like seeing the spongebob platformers being acknowledged again, lol

I've enjoyed SpongeBob games for a few years now and actively collect them, picked up a few DS ones recently. They're perfectly good for the style of game most of the time.

I'd like to see a Spongebob bundle. I like B4BB and Revenge of the Flying Dutchman. Heard good things about the movie game as well.
