Any explanation on why thera was no Rocko's Modern Life representation on Nicktoons Racing (2000)?

With the other shows there are at least a excuse: Doug is owned by Disney, Rocket Power was new at the time and it would be out-of-character seeing them riding karts instead of skateboards and rollers, Kablam! would be and it's still a heck to license (even if it's just Henry and June), and Oh Yeah! Cartoons is Oh Yeah! Cartoons.

Actually the game came out from 2000 to 2003 as it had been released on other platforms
Completely random thought - I feel like a Shin Megami Tensei fighting game would be really cool... on the condition that it deliberately makes a point of not just focusing on all of the protagonists. I mean, SMT is pretty much defined by its side characters and demons to the point where a lot of the protags don't even have their own names, so, y'know... that aside, a decent mix between them would be a lot of fun - imagining potential character candidates like Mothman, Heat, Shiki-Ouji, Matador, Terminator and so forth could be fun as hell.

Come to think of it, I suppose you could even seperate characters into different functional archetypes that indicate basic elements of their playstyle. Spitballing here, but maybe a little something like Demon, Summoner and Persona as well as a couple of unique ones like Demonica or Atma for specific, singular characters. Seems like it'd be neat!

I suppose the other way of doing it is to have you select a (or multiple) demon summons with their own unique abilities and then fight with a character capable of summoning them (such as characters with COMPs or Wild Cards), though I feel that might be a nightmare to balance out, and could run the risk of making some characters difficult to implement (such as non-protags/Velvet Room attendants from the Persona series).

Honestly, when you put it like that, I'd love to play an SMT game like this, especially if Seth is absolutely busted.

Mythology fighting game as a whole would be amazing

That sounds like a pretty cool idea - though I personally wouldn't group SMT with Persona.

Even if you deliberately avoid silent protagonists (though, seeing they're usually some of the most popular characters, I'd at least include some of them), I think SMT has enough interesting characters that you can keep demons as an assist mechanic for the most part - especially if you also include Devil Summoner and DDS characters to the mix.
