Positioned on the far left side of the box art, it’s possible to make out the silhouette of some of the most powerful characters in Nickelodeon history, Avatar Aang and Avatar Korra. Korra’s fighting pose and signature hair is the most easily recognizable from the box art, so it’s pretty safe to say that she’ll be featured in some capacity. Aang is a little more difficult to pin down, but directly below Korra is an outstretched hand with a distinctive sleeve that looks just like Aang’s. Putting the pose side by side to other Aang artwork, the silhouette and some of Aang’s fight poses look identi

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl was announced just a few days ago, but it’s already getting a lot of gamers excited with its Super Smash Bros. comparisons and homages to Nickelodeon history. There have been numerous Super Smash Bros. copycats in the past, but this one seems to be the most colorful and thoughtfully crafted. Although it only got a short trailer, Nickelodeon games have shown some polish in recent years, so there is some reason to be optimis

Nintendo’s formula for the long-running **Super Smash Bros ** . series is well known by now: popular characters from across various franchises come together in an arena setting to battle together, or against each other, or through any number of unique situations and game modes. Part of Smash Bros . success could stem from the core concept at its execution. Bringing together different characters in such a manner appeals to a wider range of fans. This raises the question, then, of why other studios don’t take advantage of franchise combo games more frequently. For quite a while, it was beginning to feel as though Nintendo had a monopoly on the formula – fortunately, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl has come around to change t

What began as a normal July day suddenly got an unexpected surprise as Nickelodeon announced Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl _ out of the blue. No one was expecting Nickelodeon to so closely imitate Nintendo’s ever-popular **_Super Smash Bros. ** series. And yet, from the look of the platform-like levels to the presentation of the individual fighters’ move sets, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl very much appears to be Smash for Nickelodeon’s brand of cartoons. Brawl was even the title of the Wii’s iteration for Super Smash Br

You might not be able to tell by looking at it, but the stick is pretty heavy. It has the durability that you look for in good sticks and it doesn’t seem like it’ll break very easily. Those of you who own the Hori stick that came in the limited edition of Tekken 6 should know what I’m talking about; that thing feels like a child’s toy, despite the A+ art. The thick and bulky design of this one is comfort

If there are two pop culture staples that have remained extremely popular throughout the world for the past 50 plus years, it’s giant robots and giant monsters. From anime like Neon Genesis Evangelion (which will hit Netflix next year ) to Hollywood blockbusters like Transformers and Pacific Rim , there’s just something about larger than life behemoths duking it out. Enter **Override: Mech City Brawl ** , a mech brawler game that puts players in giant mechanical robots and brawlstarsinsight.com faces them off either against other players online (or locally) or against equally giant monst

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl isn’t the first time a different studio has branched into Smash Bros .’ territory. PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale tried to latch onto the trend back in 2012. The game was met with mixed reviews, however, as many criticized its clumsy execution and relative lack of content. Ultimately, a PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale sequel never happened despite rumors, and since then it’s seemed as though no other major company has pushed to use Nintendo’s winning formula. While there have arguably been a few similar games such as Brawlhalla , none have had major pull or combined enough notable franchises to draw significant attent

From the gameplay that’s been revealed thus far, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl seems to be exactly what the title would indicate. The Smash Bros -esque Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl will bring together characters from SpongeBob SquarePants , Invader Zim , and even classics such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles . This is likely the first time in recent years that a large studio has attempted to put together a game so similar to Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros . ser

In another move that echoes Nintendo’s methods, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl will feature stages based around designs from different Nickelodeon shows and franchises as well. The game will also include both local and online multiplayer, and is currently set to release this fall on a wide range of different platforms. Although more information will likely be revealed in the upcoming months, All-Star Brawl has already generated a significant amount of hype since its announcement, raising the question of whether it can genuinely compete with the exact game it seems to imitate: Super Smash Bros . Given that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s final DLC character will be coming in the near future, this could be the perfect moment for another brawler with popular characters to step
