On a related note, there will be at least one character showcase next week.

tfw this was probably just a ****post Ohgrr took seriously

but hey, at least there's not gonna be another off week.

I wouldn't be surprised if the DLC was all from already repped shows, because I'm not sure if they'll even come with stages (and I don't think that they would add a fighter without a stage from their show).

I wouldn’t be surprised if they kept the missing turtles back for dlc

We do not know one way or another. Stop making doomer assumptions based on nothing

That would be really bad honestly. If 2 of the 4 dlc are veterans Turtles I don't see a lot of people being happy with this, even hardcore tmnt fans.

 

[BluePikmin11]

This was smart. Gives them more time to devlop and also gets them out of the way of Mario \ Sonic \ Spooder-Man

crazy how october is the most stacked month for games and november it's just super mario rpg and nasb2

i imagine so

There's a few other big release on November too, like Call of duty modern warfare 3, Persona 5 tactica and Like a dragon gaiden.

Compared to October having both Spider-Man 2 and Mario Wonder, the only one of those that seems like a major threat to NASB is CoD. Because it's ****ing CoD. The proof that people care more about what's marketed the most rather than what's actually good.

 

[Faso115]

I mean, COD has a really dedicated hardcore and casual fanbase that i don't think will affect NASB in any meaningful way. There isn't much overlap

 

[darkvortex]

Mario, Spider-Man and Sonic have more family \ young fan bases that could cut into NAS B. More hard core gaming franchises like Persona or Yazuka don't have much over lap with the funny spongebob game.

Someone hasn't been on the internet long enough to know about jokes regarding CoD's fanbase consisting entirely of children despite it getting 17+/18+ ratings.

True.

I'm well aware lmao.

 

[cashregister9]

Let's just say, A mom going into a Best Buy to pick up a game for her kid for Christmas or Birthday, Might pick up Mario, Spider-man, Sonic and Nickelodeon

They are not picking up Persona lmao (and to a lesser extent, they are not picking up Call Of Duty)

Oh I wasn't bringing up Persona and Yakuza because those would be competition to Nasb 2, but just because the fact that Mario rpg was the only big release in November was not very true.

 

[Guynamednelson]

Does Gen Alpha's parents actually pay attention to those E's and T's and M's on game boxes?

...not that I should be acting like this is new since my parents did until I was 14

 

[Quick Gaming (QG)]

I’m like 90% certain the COD fanbase would be the type to most parrot the philosophy of Smash clone, dead game, etc, etc so no I don’t think there will be overlap

 

[darkvortex]

what's coming out that momth doesn't really matter. The main issue was that it was coming out on the same day as Mario and the same week as Sonic and Spider-Man. that was a doomed slot and moving Is smart, even if it was more likely just becuase it needed more time

 

[Guynamednelson]

I don’t think there will be overlap

Only by default.

Gen Alphas parents are largely millenials who are more video game literate overall so it wouldn't surprise me.

Heck I'll bet they don't even need to look at the age ratings, most of them probably already know CoD has a reputation for being that game where 12-year-olds call you slurs.

 

[DrifloonEmpire]

Do you think we'll get a Labor Day showcase today?

 

[MBRedboy31]

Do you think we'll get a Labor Day showcase today?

Probably not, if they haven’t posted one already. Also,

We can’t reveal everything just yet, but we can say there are more announcements coming soon 👀#Nickelodeon #NASB2 #SpongeBob pic.twitter.com/gV1CtzbUDw

I remember reading that the Monday showcase was delayed to Tuesday on one of the Discords.

Ohgrr already confirmed he forgot today was Labor Day and thus there shouldn't be a showcase.

Jokes aside, everyone involved gets a day off, so not a big deal.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

I thought her two up airs were duplicated for a second, but turns out they're different animations despite the relatively similar concepts. Glad she's got more camera moves now to make her less spammy.

 

[Alicorn]

April mains coming in strong with rating and slime enchanted finishers.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Uh oh, seems the barely distinguishable alts are back!

 

[AreJay25]

Why the **** did I just see April do a Spirit Bomb

 

[Guynamednelson]

Uh oh, seems the barely distinguishable alts are back!

They could've improved that one by adding the big pink belt from the toy it's based on

 

[fogbadge]

Her special appears to be a reverse superman

 

[Sammerbro44]

Back to the TMNT cast then:

• One of the best changes April got to me, is to her HUD. She now has a meter that more clearly shows how much ratings she has. It's so much better than the first game, where all you got were the stars on her mic, which for me were incredibly hard to see during the heat of a match.
• At 0:15, the stock icon for Patrick is a lot more detailed than April's is.
• Her side special is now the camera. I like how it can now be moved into a better position rather than just sticking to one spot.
• Her new down special looks really fun. Slime cancel is about to go crazy with that move
• With her up special, I'm glad she doesn't get all of her fuel back simply from grabbing the ledge. No ledge camping for April
• At 0:53, our first good look at Lucy! And she has her little poetry journal as an idle!
• At 1:30, our first good look at Jenny! And.... okay, it's either Jenny is way smaller than I thought, or April is way bigger than I thought.
• Okay, so we have Guilty Gear inspiration for Plankton with his side special. Now we have DragonBall Fighterz inspiration for April with her super. That is just straight up a spirit bomb.

Overall, April feels like one of the best examples of the devs trying to give their characters more things to do instead of just being like "light dair is the same as light down; but in the air!"

 

[Capybara Gaming]

I definitely feel about the same in regards to April as I did in the first game, though this time for a different reason. She seems kind of... Unfinished, maybe? Some of her moves have very noticable body breaking or just seem completely unnatural for a humanoid to be doing, primarily with the way her legs move during her aerials and the bending they do.


...and a Spirit Bomb as her super? Really the worst we've seen thus far. It doesn't make any sense for her to be doing. They couldve given her a move like Phoenix Wright's Level 3 where she interviews the person she's fighting and stuns them by asking them how they feel about getting thrashed on Live TV, resulting in them exploding in anger or shock for the damage. Huge missed potential there.

 

[AreJay25]

You know, her new down special kinda reminds me of som-

Spoiler

oh god, not again

 

[RileyXY1]

And still no sign of any of the missing veterans.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

I find it funny this game is coming out on Godzilla's 69th anniversary as well as Godzilla Minus One's Japanese release.

 

[Guynamednelson]

they nerfed the height of my bottom text too

 

[Alicorn]

I thought smaller was better in these kinds of games.

Jenny the new Toph.
