Nickelodeon All-Stars Brawl General Thread - All Star Brawl 2 Available Today!

Rep swears to us that Aang's taunt looks better in the final product, and he will not look like an axe-murderer who just put on a mask like he does in the showcase.

 

[Peepo T. Skeleton]

Aang and Korra play about how I expected them to, aside from Korra's button holding mechanic, which is pretty cool.

They've mentioned post launch support, so if there's enough of an outcry I guess they might change some of Aang's move visuals to different elements or whatever.

The stages themselves are decent, but man, the Air Temple's theme sounds really placeholder-y and I didn't even notice Convergence's theme.

Like they said, they'll improve the music after launch. Presumably the tracks that would fit right in bargain-bin fangames from the early 00s, and not the ones people genuinely like.

...Yeah, that taunt looked REALLY off-putting in the showcase.

 

[TheBrainJem]

Aang and Korra both look pretty fun, Korra may end up being a main of mine, and Aang's airball move is definitely gonna be fun to mess around with

I wonder if they are saving Toph till launch honestly, kinda weird to not show her off here with the other two avatar characters

Yeah, it's bleeding weird. They're really dedicated to their "no more than two characters from a related series" showcase per day formula.

Hell, she might be awkwardly shunted on the same day of the remaining base character that hasn't been covered yet by then. The only alternative I can think of is PTM and Zim getting showcases on Monday (GIR likes waffles and PTM's arch-nemesis is waffle-themed, so there's your link, I guess).

 

[amageish]

Interestingly, the four private are being shown off not in upload order... I'm guessing 5/6 are probably PTM Showcase and Zim Showcase, with 4 being the announcement trailer for Aang/Korra they never actually showed us and 1 being the Toph Showcase...

 

[Capybara Gaming]

I wish they'd show us that trailer.

Yeah, I didn't notice it on my first viewing of Aang's showcase, but the Air Scooter looks like it'll be REALLY useful for traversing the stage quickly, either to get close to the opponent or to get away.

 

[Fields - Ultimate's Great]

It's less of "I want the EXACT moveset" and more of the concept of the moveset - utilizing all four elements, you know, like the AVATAR.

The biggest variety of moves was Aang's airbending with the show's namesake focusing on air above all else. Makes sense Aang has a moveset centered around that for the sake of variety along with his staff and glider.

For those who haven't seen it already, the game has now covered the big three of console websites for exclusive articles, with Xbox Wire, Playstation Blog and Nintendo Life.

Personally, I find the Air Ball fun in this regard, might make for a good side recovery.

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is Passion Project Platform Fighter - Xbox Wire

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is coming to Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S very soon and we here at Ludosity and Fair Play Labs can’t wait to get into everyone’s hands. I am Joel Nyström, CEO at Ludosity, and you’ll also hear from Fair Play Labs’ game director here as we share excitement for players...

news.xbox.com

new interview and it has another Zim screenshot

 

[dlewis53]

Minor update, but Reptar's showcase just got put up (or I guess un-privated) on Gamemill's Youtube channel, and it still has the distracting "notification pop" sound in it.

Also, now there are three unknown videos; I'm guessing they're either the three reveal trailers for the Avatar characters, or the showcases for Powdered Toast Man, Zim, and Toph, and to be honest, I'm kind of hoping it's the latter option.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I wish they'd show us that trailer.

I mean, let's be real, the trailers are pretty poorly editted and a lot of people like making potshots at the song they use, I don't get why you're waiting for this specifically

Honestly, at this point, the only good thing about the reveal trailers is listening to that banging song again.

Otherwise, yeah, they're not really that well-made, mainly in that they move too fast to be able to notice anything significant without slowing the video's speed down.

Plus, we've already gotten both Aang and Korra's showcases; the reveal trailers would just be redundant at this point.

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

is available for pre-order today on the Xbox Store.

Can an Xbox owner check to see if the Toph art is still on the splash image?

NASB really made sure to cover its bases huh? Really playing for all teams than trying to exclude itself.

 

[Ze Diglett]

Well, here's Aang's reveal trailer, at the very least.

My guess is Korra's isn't far away.

 

[amageish]

Interesting... So, either Korra's trailer was uploaded before Aang's and the showcases, or maybe 4/5 are still Zim/PTM?

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

For Rodriguez, though, it’s all about Invader Zim. “Zim hands down. I have been waiting a long time for having the opportunity to play as Zim.”

his face when Zim still has no coverage whatsoever

...Has someone told him?

 

[dlewis53]

Um...yay?

Honestly, the showcase kind of makes the reveal trailer a bit unnecessary to me. Plus I have no idea why they waited so late in the day to make the reveal trailer public.

Also, as amageish pointed out, the positioning of the remaining two private videos suggests that they're showcases as well; hopefully for Zim and Powdered Toast Man.

 

[LimeTH]

Well, here's Aang's reveal trailer, at the very least.

My guess is Korra's isn't far away.

I had a feeling it'd be a bit jarring to see Aang's pre-rendered animation, purely because it's Aang, a character from a feudal fantasy world, in a completely modern day city.

I was right!

 

[Teeb147]

Did we ever get much on weekends?

Just wondering since it'd be nice to see toph tomorow :"P

 

[slrigeigdew]

ATLA is my favorite piece of media, not just from Nickelodeon but in all of fiction, so I'll obviously be maining all the Avatar characters day 1. So far Korra is the only one that fits my playstyle and her stage is beautiful (even if the season it came from is trash writing-wise). Just wish we saw these two much earlier since we've known they were in the game since... well since the game was announced really.

GET READY GET READY

 

[RileyXY1]

I don't know how they're gonna cover Toph's reveal and the showcases for PTM and Zim unless the game really is delayed to the 8th.

Considering past history for that, the most we even got was plugging for the PC version. Otherwise...

I don't know how they're gonna cover Toph's reveal and the showcases for PTM and Zim unless the game really is delayed to the 8th.

If I'm not mistaken, only physical releases would be affected.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Yeah, I'm in this too! Thumbs up!

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Do any of you think that maybe they're trying to pull something similar to a situation by having Toph announced alongside the 2 bonus characters on launch day? Otherwise it makes no sense which way you look at it.

Spoiler

Edit: In light of recent events, maybe just the 2 bonus characters at launch.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Now I think about it, since Toph is blind does that mean she has no clue how ridiculous her opponents look? Sure, she'd hear and smell them, but the idea of her recognising these wacky characters as worthy foes before she recognises them as silly madmen is both funny and awesome.

 

[DeviousFish]

Welp

 

[dlewis53]

Okay, so we're getting Toph tomorrow then aka an actual legit update on the weekend for once.

I'm gonna hazard a guess and say that at least one of the two remaining videos is her showcase, then.

 

[amageish]

I do not... entirely get the point of splitting this up beyond getting dfiferent set of eyes on the game (I mean, I assume someone listens to the official Xbox podcast), but okay I guess! Neat. This means we're getting weekend news for the first time as well.

Well, guess that answers the question of "when are they gonna reveal Toph". If tomorrow goes anything like today, we'll probably get Toph's showcase shortly after too, leaving the Zim fans and Powdered Toast Chads out in the cold yet again. Looks like the game's release being right around the corner was just the kick in the pants they needed to start doing weekend uploads.

 

[Faso115]

I love memes but the weird off-model faces should only be a Ren thing

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Well, this has quickly made the rounds.

Now I think about it, since Toph is blind does that mean she has no clue how ridiculous her opponents look? Sure, she'd hear and smell them, but the idea of her recognising these wacky characters as worthy foes before she recognises them as silly madmen is both funny and awesome.

I like to think that she would request to touch them to get a general idea of how they look (before or after battle). It's telling how the teenage mutant ninja turtles would be the least weird of this lot.

Also, smelling Oblina would not quite be the wisest idea...

I'm fine with this as long as we get something on Sunday.

But yeah, time's running low for sure. It's go time.

Mainly because it bothers me they did it on that podcast and It'd bug my OCD to have it exclusive to that god-awful **** when I can look up all the other reveals on youtube; either way it got uploaded.

 

[amageish]

I gotta say: I know Smash speculation has made people wary of any and all leaks, but the fact there's a non-zero number of people saying "Toph wasn't shown with the Avatar reps; she obviously isn't in the game" is... quite silly.

I mean, she's on the leaked splash art that preloaded copies of the game are showing, right? At that point, I'm not sure how much more confirmed she can get.

It's business as usual, people refuse to see the truth until it stares at them in the face. In this case it's even dumber since they failed to notice the pattern of "can't show more than two characters of a given series per day, no matter how much it makes sense".

I can hardly wait to see how the DLC cycle for this will go.

Xbox ones, to be exact. Still no word on PS4/5, though.
