Same characters over and over in every Nickolodean crossover game. Half of them are reskins.
I might play this just because of the playable characters from Avatar.
Younger versions of the biggest mascots? It really is like Mario Kart!
Wait, I saw Jojo Siwa as playable character. 😯
Wish they would add Asami.
Too bad the nickelodeon all-star brawl doesn't have that many characters.
Baby Characters!
They really want to push these terrible SpongeBob spinoffs hard. Instead of interesting characters such as Timmy Turner, Tommy, Angelica, Norbert, Dagget, Heffer, Mr. Blik, or Katara we get Young SpongeBob, Young Patrick, and Squidina. Well, we still can get DLCs at one point, but still, what a waste. If they really needed to bring in three other SpongeBob characters, why not appealing ones, such as Mr. Krabs, Plankton, and Mrs. Puff?
Purple Reptar??
Timmy Turner and both his faries were denied a spot on the roster but we get 3 Kamp Koral characters and JoJo Siwa!?!.
I had a good time playing the single player campaign in Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2. I think it took me 10-12 hours? I'll probably get 3 if the single player is as good or better.
@WoomyNNYes the only useful comment so far. 👍🏼
I didn't play 1 and 2. But I'm actually hooked for this one. Alone the fact that all 4 Ninja Turtles are inside is amazing, but also Ren & Stimpy and Garfield & Odie. This will be definitely better than Garfield Kart.
But I hope in the end, the game is really good and something like a Sonic Allstars Contender.
A pretty good roster, but it is missing a few notable characters.
And they're all voiced? 🤔 If this plays well I would considering picking up this Christmas
So I can accept that this is a fantasy game and all, but they do know Toph is blind, right?
@Nintendo4Sonic Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed is so underrated….the first four tracks are as good as any on any Kart racer….but I see some cool playable characters. Might get this on a sale….
As someone who grew up with Nickelodeon (and Cartoon Network for that matter) in the 90s but stopped watching it around 2003 (mostly due to my new cable system not having the channel) but tries to keep up with their news, let me ask a perfectly legit question: Who the hell is Jojo Siwa?
Just because you're a Mario Kart clone doesn't mean you had to bring in the clone characters!
Also wow that character layout infuriates me. Why is Raph separated from the rest of the Turtles? Why aren't the Jimmy Neutron characters on the same line? Why are the Kamp Koral characters in the roster to begin with?!
Two SpongeBob Patrick variants but no beavers? Only non represented classic here, besides maybe kablamm
@Anti-Matter I noticed JoJo too, and immediately thought - this game is going to get banned in 25 US states.😂 Then I realized she's a real person and all the rest are cartoons, so that's weird. Then I checked on Google and she had a cartoon show, so maybe only banned in 12 states.😁
Did you know she was also in Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 in 2020? That was before she came out in 2021 though, so I'm still kind of impressed they kept her in. I wonder if they got her to do new voice dialog or they just took clips from the show? 🤷 Now I kind of need to know.
Context in case you missed it.

They seriously went Kamp Koral instead of literally anything else? I don’t even see Fairly Odd Parents here
I like how they add any one but the main characters from Rugrats. Angelica and Tommy should had been in the game from day one. Chuckie and Suzie are just side characters at most. When you think of Rugrats, you think of the Pickles family and Tommy and Angelica are the two most memorable characters than the rest.
Kamp Koral? Seriously?
Wait, I’m confused. Is this right? Because there are characters who were in the second one that are missing here. Notably Tommy and Angelica from Rugrats…
@rjejr
Jojo Siwa will have her game published by Outright Games on multi consoles.
I will pick the PS5 version.
Btw, I heard she was a part of LGBTQ community that explained her shows was banned by several States in USA.
I think being a part as LGBTQ community was a beautiful thing and very brave despite a lot of peoples still have phobia with LGBTQ community. Be proud with your orientation, love doesn't have a gender.
I find it funny how Garfield's in this game despite not even having a Nickelodeon show yet, seems like do that a lot for these crossover games
@HammerGalladeBro JoJo Siwas a popular singer that I believe nickelodeon has the rights for merchandising and promotion, she did get her own show
@Anti-Matter Thanks for the info about her game. When I read the name of the company publishing her game was Outright I thought it was a company handling LGBTQ games, you know, like Out Right. Turns out they're a family based company in the UK. From their website.
Outright Games is a family-run global video game publisher, making family friendly interactive entertainment with the biggest franchises in the world.
If they were based in the US I could see them canceling her game. 😝 Things seem marginally better in the UK. Enjoy the game.
@HammerGalladeBro "Who the hell is Jojo Siwa?"
Quick answer - the thinking person's Honey Boo Boo. 😂
If you don't know who Honey Boo Boo is, well, I envy you so much. 😉
OK, actual answer, tween social media superstar. Think The Kardashians for 10-12 year old girls. Who came out as gay 2 years ago, which blew the minds of everyone you would expect it to blow the minds of. Do you remember when everyone lost their mind b/c Hannah Montana did that wrecking ball vid? Well she's this generations version of that.
I know WAY too much about Jojo for an old cishet white man. 😝
Like seeing the likes of Jenny, Cindy and Korra herself included. I do think the game could include more characters from the likes of Hey Arnold, Jimmy Neutron and Korra. Hey, Nick's also got the likes of Harvey Beaks, Fairly Oddparents, Wild Thornberrys, As Told by Ginger and Rocket Power that could be well presented in this game.
@RareFan Plankton I get, but why Mrs. Puff when she was an assistant character in the last version? Maybe Krabs in a DLC if they push for it to be a long runner this time.
More confused as to why they only went with chuckle and Susie for the first run instead of Tommy and Angelica like usual, but that's what DLC is for.
Also Parker J Cloud for NKR3 or we go to Warner Bros. Discovery!
@MatoFilipovic Are you implying no other racer does the same?
@Dakotastomp Mr. Krabs as paid dlc would be hilariously fitting. XD
@Tempestryke his pack will cost more than the game itself! Aug Aug Aug Aug Aug!
@Dakotastomp lolol
Does anyone really care about this game?
@RPGreg2600 Yes, me.
@Dakotastomp alright then. Seems like if you want to play a kart game, you might as well just play Mario kart. What's the attraction for you? Genuinely interested, not trolling. The only thing that interests me about the game at all is Ren and Stimpy.
@RPGreg2600 Well, there's your answer. It's seeing these cartoons we grew up with interacting together in a crossover that has gotten better over time. Not saying it has anything over CTR Nitro-Fuelled or MK8, but it really does look like the team really is building off of what worked in the last game.
Where else can you find Leonardo on a motorcycle launching rockets at Jojo Siwa driving a hovercraft? No where, that's where.😂
@Dakotastomp fair enough! Maybe I'll pick it up when it hits the bargain bin, which it no doubt will.
@RPGreg2600 that's fine. I'd probably wait for a deep sale as well, but I fear this is going to go the same route as NASB vs. Multiversus when Disney Speedstorm launches, since that's f2p, but the difference here is that Nick's game seems pretty competent and has everything folks have been asking for from the start. I can live without VA, as long as the game itself is good, but I'm glad it's there.
@DigimonGamer What makes you think they're going to make a fourth game?
@rjejr @BirdBoy16 I appreciate your replies. Thanks a lot. And yes, I (un)fortunately know who Honey Boo Boo is.
Either I haven't read enough or Nick's Latin American social media (Mexican guy here) doesn't talk about Jojo Siwa.
@HammerGalladeBro Ah, Mexico may explain it I suppose, she seems very US English based. And her girlfriend is as well. I only know about her from everyone freakin' out, not as you would expect that a girl child tv star has a girlfriend, but her girlfriend - gasp - was a conservative Trump supporter. Can't have that now can we.🙄 Strong possibility if her girlfriend leaned left I wouldn't know who she was either.🤷 My Twitter feed is a nightmare.😂
A few odd omissions here:
Chucky and Suzy but no Tommy or Angelica?
Cindy and Jimmy but no Carl, Sheen, or Hugh?
No Fairly Oddparents or Wild Thornberries rep at all?
Still, it’s a pretty decently big selection so it’s not bad.
@rjejr "she's a real person and all the rest are cartoons"
This really is like "Sonic All-Stars Transformed" where it has Danica Patrick!
@BulbasaurusRex Didn't know about Patrick, thanks. Turns out she was in a cartoon, as a car, but that was years after Sonic Transformed. She's the blue car on the left.
