Haven't watched the whole video, but no talk of characters, just mechanics and moves.

We know of some announcer names in the code but of course, that doesn't mean they were ever seriously considered. Lots of fun options tho

I'm so mad we lost out on Zim DACUS. Releasing in February '24 instead of November '23 genuinely would've saved this game.

Something fairly odd from the comments of the cut content video.

Also another cool video from the same channel

I still don't fully understand why they can't just use Cosmo and Wanda. Why does it HAVE to be Timmy? Why is it Timmy or bust?
Like, think about it, where are Timmy's attacks going to be coming from? He'll basically be a proxy for Cosmo and Wanda anyway. Same if they went with Hazel instead.
And it seems like the Oddparents themselves lack the legal issues that are plaguing seemingly just Timmy and Timmy alone, because all the revivals lately are putting them with new kids, so... again... can they not just make the Fairies the playable characters?

Also hell yeah, Beaver Bros stay winning.

I think they're just afraid of the massive fan backlash they could get if they added an FOP rep that isn't Timmy. Timmy is a massively fan demanded character, as he is the last of the Big Four who hasn't been added yet (as Jenny and Rocko were made DLC for the first game and Jimmy was added in the second) and some people just want to have the Nicktoons Unite 4 (SpongeBob, Jimmy, Timmy, and Danny) all back together in a game for the first time since Attack of the Toybots.

I told you guys something like this would happen in regards to completionism pre-NASB1 launch.

From a comment on the cut content video... finally, at long last. "they tried to add all the characters but ran out of time!!! " is dead.

I don't think we can extrapolate that from a comment being liked man

Did he actually respond to the comment

Another set of comments implies certain characters were planned but dropped, though the info is more tenuous. He's going to make a follow-up video.

It doesn't necessarily confirm PTM wasn't considered, (hell, the Timmy Turner thing from eariler does allude to cut characters, as well as a few other comments) but this comment being liked - alongside something said about Korra in the video - do essentially confirm that there was no work put into playable characters who didn't make it in

I think at this point people will take any FOP representation at all.

 

[Fields - Ultimate's Great]

Not me, I want Timmy reunited with Jimmy and the other OG Nicktoons not Cosmo and Wanda awkwardly tossed in without their god-kid. There's a reason the show is about them as a trio and not one over the other.

This news sucks (and arguably that goes for NASB too given the timing), but uhh... might be something to look at.

Nelvana, one of Canada’s biggest and oldest animation studios is likely shutting down. Their parent company, Chorus is bankrupt and owes 1 billion in dept. This year, their CEO and senior execs got bonuses totalling $13 million, after laying off 800 employees.

I'm just gonna ask the obvious question: Would the Canadian rights to those shows revert back to Paramount?

Now, allow me to ask a less obvious question: Can Nick scoop up the rights to Pelswick on the cheap now?

I'm defintely not a pro in that type of stuff, but I doubt the rights to the show would go automatically to Nickelodeon/Paramount, unless there was an agreement that say so in the first place. Usually when a company shut down, the assets are sold through auctions. I'm not sure what happened if nobody is interested to buy the assets tho.

In my opinion if no one decides to buy those IPs they should immediately go into the public domain, and this goes for any time a company shuts down.

Absolutely, either that or the original creators (sans John K. situations ofc) - Nelvana is the perfect case study for this really, since their back catalog is primarily very obscure, and includes a lot of stuff that swapped hands to rights holders who don't care and hasn't been seen since (Eek! the Cat and the Star Wars Holiday Special are both notorious for their poor modern preservation in the Disney vault)

While I like its use as both an item and a move, the Suck-O-Matic would be a bad-ass playable character, like a character themed entirely on inverse wind-boxes, perhaps some kind of anti-zoner that can eat projectiles. If slime returns maybe it could have slime vampirism. Plus it's probably the only somewhat intimidating villain in the entire show (Oh try as you might, Peaches... try as you might) and one of the most well-known episodes. Generally, "unthinking machine" type characters are just really fun to control.
