Oh hey, there's a thread for this game. Cool.

Sooooo....

What's leak policy here? We cool to talk about the two leaked characters?
Toph and...? Because Aang and Korra have been officially revealed.

Garfield.
That is mostly fake so far. Also, we technically can't talk about them much since we know so little about the scribbled over characters that talk about them was banned on Discord.

However, things seem to be leaning towards a potential double-announcement on launch day, since they're cleaning up showcases faster.

Oh, what's disproving it? I kinda have a vested interest in Garfield making it in, and so far, each confirm seems to be lining up with the leak.

If there's new leaks, spoiler-tag those. I think we all just kind of came to a united conclusion that Toph was leaked so many times that she's basically been soft-announced already...

As for Garfield, it's still debated here, but I think most people are set in their camps and there's not really much purpose in rehashing the arguments about if it is real.

At best I think it's an Artsy-Omni situation that would somehow became real, but until then it's just weird. Especially seeing as the devs didn't react to it at all as opposed to the two mystery slots.


Until then, we're at an impasse, so I would prefer that we leave it at that and talk about DLC possibilities/demands past the two bonuses.

I'm gonna be honest, I really don't want Garfield in the game. Not because I don't like Garfield, but because he just doesn't feel like a Nick character to me, and I'd rather have characters I actually associate with Nick in the game.

Teen Nick still exists?
It mostly exists because Nicktoons Network doesn't air old Nicktoons anymore. Even then it isn't exactly the best substitute, as it doesn't show any original content produced specifically for Nicktoons Network.

Well, that just leaves the two post-launch characters. Amazed they haven't gotten leaked yet, but given this game's track record, anything's possible.

If we're gonna talk DLC possibilities, I'm gonna need help convincing people outside this board that the Angry Beavers don't have to be a duo and it would suit their dynamic better to be two separate slots. I am but one man!

To me, if Viacom owns them; they're aimed at kids; and are animated/drawn/modeled - they're elegible. (Though I'm not opposed to guest characters - or should I say syndicated characters? - or a Nick vs. CN/Disney game later down the line)

I was 50/50 on it, but since someone pointed out some odd lines in the picture almost like some characters were copy pasted in the line up, I can't say I have confidence in it any more. But it still could definitely be possible. The dev team loves garfield, it just feels like they would've asked for him if they could. So I still think it's possible :)

My take on that leak is that the models within it are almost certainly legit (the evidence for it being an incredibly lucky fake is extremely slim IMO; extraordinary claims warrant extraordinary evidence and all that) and for now we'll just have to see if the Garf himself actually makes it in or not. That said, we've discussed the Garfleak at length and most people are already convinced that it's either real or fake, so unless a conclusive verdict or some new development comes out about it, it's not really worth discussing any further.

something I've been meaning to check on but finally got around to also hurts Garf

Nick's TMNT series premiered in 2012
Nicktoons MLB released in 2011
Nick acquired TMNT in full in 2009

I know it's not the exact same situation here but based on past history, they don't add acquired characters to crossover stuff until they actually get their Nick shows it seems

Which again effects Garfield, acquired mid 2019 and yet not in Kart Racers 2 (this could've been more of a timing thing but eh)

Considering they used the old tmnt designs, I feel like maybe it doesnt matter?
If nick agrees to it, then why not? :p

Well, the turtles are drawing from their more iconic appearances from before they were on Nick, so.... I feel like the genie is already out of the bottle in that regard. But it would be weird if Garfield appeared in the game before his Nick show even aired, I admit. Especially when Nick icons like Timmy and Jimmy aren't in yet.

Yeah. I don't expect them to rep an upcoming show that isn't even out yet, even if it has a recognizable brand attached to it like Garfield. The buyout was also very recent (in 2019).

I'm fine with it since 1) the TMNT incarnation used here is my formative one and 2) it's better to have them show up in a Smash-like game like this than the one Ubisoft had once.

Well, it's not like it'd be entirely unprecedented, that kind of thing. :ultroy:

So, herein lies the question; if Garf isn't what made Ludosity freak out about the 2-bonus leak being almost exposed, what then? I guess we'll find out very soon.

Was it not Toph and the Rugrats stage? Aang and Korra were already teased but at that point nobody knew for sure about Toph, and at that point nobody knew what the Rugrats stage was, which in itself is a damning piece of evidence towards Toph's inclusion once inevitably shown off with Reptar.

Regarding the 1980s incarnation, i agree. The only reason im okay with their inclusion here is because of Nick's ownership.

But i would have preferred the 2012 incarnation in this game instead, THAT one for me is inseperable from the Nickelodeon.

It was those things. They barely reacted to the Garfield Leak, but once the CSS and the SSS leaked they nuked the Spec Chat on the Discord server and banned all leak discussion for a time, but then the entire server was made read only due to an unrelated incident involving a moderator.

Ah yeah, I hadn't thought about it that way. In any case, it's a lucky accident that the leaker was too coy about the bonus characters, so whoever the 2 bonuses are will be a complete surprise, assuming nothing else leaks.

As for the initial art box leak, they pretty much just did this:

the leak stuff mainly just had to do with devs being busy and not wanting to be bothered by it

once the Xbox start up screen leaked too they basically gave up and allowed it

Agreed, except that I also can't stand Garfield personally.
