Miko
Chance: 25%
On the plus side, she did decently in the most recent fan poll, getting 26th out of 200, so there's definitely a decent amount of fan demand. Aside from that, there unfortunately isn't much going for her. Mainly the fact that her show was cancelled years before it even premiered and it never even aired on any of the actual Nick channels. Makes me feel like that even if the people making the game wanted to add Miko, the Nick executives wouldn't allow it because they hate good things. But who knows, anything is possible.

Want: 100%
Miko is my "most wanted character that I know will never happen but it won't stop me from having false hope anyways" pick. Kinda like Crash Bandicoot for Smash. My reasons for wanting her are the usual ones. I like the character, I think she'd be fun to play as, cool stage potential, etc. The main reason is the fact that Glitch Techs is one of my favorite shows of all-time and I think it should be in all the crossovers. It would be sad if the Nick show about video games never got represented in any of the actual Nick video games.

Oh

Chance - 6%
This show only ran for one season in the 2000's, before getting canned and its reruns being dumped on the side channel. I have no idea how well received it was at the time, but its not exactly one people talk about much these days. I had completely forgotten about the existence of this show until this round came up. I can't see it being on the devs radar. And I can't see it selling very much as DLC. It's also an ensamble piece so he would 0

Want - 12%
I actually have vague memories watching some of this show as a kid but i couldn't tell you anything about it other than the basic premise, and that I don't really like the artstyle. I'd probably give it a lower score but the potential to have the GOAT Patrick Warburton in the game would too good to pass up. Also I guess a James Bond style character could have a pretty fun moveset.

The name's X, Mr. X.

Chance: 5%

The X's is one of the many, many Nick shows that was cancelled after just one season. Now the fact that Mr. X is a spy does help him stand out among that crowd. But is moveset potential alone enough to make him stand out in the crowded DLC cycle? Probably not. Unless if some of the devs are Bond fans and find this idea appealing, I struggle to believe The X's would be a priority for them.

Want: 50%

I think I might have viewed this show a few times back then. I recognize the art style and some of the characters but otherwise I don't remember anything about it. But the creator has stated that the show was inspired by James Bond, which is a film series I heavily enjoyed. If they can come up with a cool spy moveset and maybe make a few references to Bond while they are at it, I'm sold.

I don't know, they could pick one of the other family members if they decide they'd be cooler or have more moveset potential, and I can't imagine this show's style is going to be an easy translation to 3D. Also, Mr. X being a spy doesn't make him stand out that much. Kitty Katswell is a spy too and she did way better on the poll. I don't really see it happening.

The bad guy from Streets of Rage yeah great game this is surely what this day is referring to everyone knows Nick developed Streets of Rage am I funny yet

Chance: 1.25% (5% divided between 4 family members)
The X's (a very strange name to type, or look up... or even say out loud, really) was a show that ran for a single season from 2005 through 2006. I... can't find any information regarding its reception or ratings... But I watched it! Sometimes. I also mistook it for The Secret Saturdays (because of Tuesday X maybe? Idk)

Look it's kinda hard to talk about The X's. It's just one of those shows that time forgot. I remember enjoying it, but I had kinda forgotten that it existed (or that it was called the X's instead of the Secret Saturdays). You don't exactly hear people talking about it much these days.

As for Mr. X himself, Wikipedia calls him the protagonist of the show. Funny, because I always felt like Tuesday and Truman were the leads, with Tuesday being the normal relatable person, and Truman being the young boy character that I, fellow young boy, could relate to despite not sharing any character traits with. So I don't know who would be chosen as the rep. But hey, if the recent poll is any indication, he's the most popular (...105th place, compared to 120 for his daughter, 126 for his wife, 128 for the whole family as one slot, and 140 for his son). I'm not sure if that's genuine popularity, if it's just the appeal of Patrick Warburton improbably returning to voice him, or if it's just the Hugh effect and people are dad-obsessed for the memes.

Want: 75%
If Patrick Warburton actually voices him this shoots way up, the man's a treasure. But otherwise, I'd like it if NASB repped many Nick shows and the X's... is one of them! One I reportedly enjoyed at that! But I'd take any of the X's as the rep and frankly Mr. X just seems like the boring option (why not give moms a chance to be memey?) I would like to see the smart home as a stage though, it was a lot of fun and apparently Stephen Root voiced it which makes a lot of sense (he's great)

The main reason this isn't 100% though is because Kitty is one of my most wanted characters and two spies might be overkill. But Kitty seems to have gotten a popularity boost recently (yay!) and is looking a lot likelier, so if/when she makes it in this score would go way up.

[DrifloonEmpire]

Is it just me or does it really feel like a knock off of The Incredibles?

I remember a LOT of people saying that back in the day when it was a brand new show!


Mr X.

Chance: 5% - The X's was never the most popular or easy to access show. It got only one season in the 2000's and the show as a whole is almost impossible to find. After that, the reruns got sent to Nicktoons. Though, I was very much present during the show's run and remember it being well-promoted for Friday Night Nicktoons (and getting a few rerun slots on weekends), so even if it only got one season it still did get attention during said run. Though once that was over, the show went from prevalent to almost lost. So there's little to no corporate push to get any X's content into Smash. Same goes for fan demand, for the 2000's the fans are focused on other shows like El Tigre, Fairly OddParents, more Jimmy Neutron, Barnyard, etc. and Mr. X barely missed out on the Top 100 in the recent poll. Then there's the niche competition. For secret agent characters the fans seem to be leaning more towards Dudley Puppy or Kitty Katswell. At least he has Kronk voice, which puts a little bit of meme power on his side.

Want: 80% - Despite not caring about James Bond, I loved this show as a kid! Especially as someone who loved The Incredibles, which this show was often compared to back in the day! My favorite characters were Truman, along with the always-hilarious villain Glowface, but Mr. X himself was a great example of a funny dad who was still competent, and the inventions he and his family use would make for a hilarious moveset! Honestly, I think this show was criminally underlooked, and now that more of my bigger priorities are getting added in I'd love to see him join the roster!


Nominations:
Jack Fenton x10

Predictions:
The Expired Cow - 0.15% - Fred was never a popular series, The Expired Cow was a one-off character, and we've already discussed how unlikely live action characters are. So expecting super low scores!

Bubble Bass - 4.23% - Was one of Spongebob's more memorable minor characters, has tons of meme power, and was even brought back recently by Nickelodeon as a reoccurring antagonist! However, I'm not expecting good scores, especially with the super in-demand major Spongebob characters still needing to get in.


Speaking of which, in light of the recent poll results (and since we're running out of characters to rate), here are some good ideas for rates and rerates for anyone who's not sure what to use their noms on!

• Squidward (Rerate)
• El Tigre (Rerate)
• Snap
• Rudy Tabootie
• Dagget Beaver (Rerate; and aren't we rating Norbert soon?)
• The Crimson Chin (Rerate)
• Otis (Rerate)
• Carl Wheezer (Rerate)
• Vlad Plasmius (Rerate)
• Ember McLain (Rerate)
• Catscratch Trio (Rerate)
• Donatello and Raphael
• Dudley Puppy/Kitty Katswell (Rerate)
• Luna Loud (Rerate)
• Lisa Loud (Rerate)
• Sokka (Rerate)
• Fanboy and ChumChum

(why not give moms a chance to be memey?)

I think a lot of it comes from dads being generally portrayed as much goofier in cartoons, while there aren't really any mother characters who do that.

 

[Guynamednelson]

and aren't we rating Norbert soon?

Yes, and I think a Daggett rerate is justified with people who'd want more 90s moving to the Beavers now that Rocko has been announced.

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

Let me just tell you, I'm not "running out of ideas" when I submit stuff like Expired Cow and Bert the Fish, I just like exposing unlucky people to children's TV hellspawns. There are tons of 90s non-protags (even some protags) and non-character/general concepts that I'd love to elect, but if I discover something weird from Nick history, I'm gonna want to give some noms just to get how weird it is out there, and if I get enough noms to skyrocket a character from nowhere, I'm gonna want something that elicits a strong response.

[Sid-cada]

Mr. X

Chance - 0.5% - This show is barely remembered, lasting only one season. One thing I will say is that I actually struggle to find a reason he would be chosen over every other character in his family. Ms. X is the dedicated combat specialist among the spy team. Truman X is the gadgeteer of the team. Tuesday is probably one of the most normal, coming closest to main character in an ensemble cast. All he has going for him is being the leader, which... doesn't amount to much, as the devs have a proven track record of using characters they thing would be more popular or interesting over what most would consider the most "proper" choice.

Want - 40% - Even if I wanted an X, I'd rather have another character. He's plain uninteresting compared to them.


Predictions

Bubble Bass - 4.35% - He's made a comeback in modern SpongeBob, but he's no where near the top of the totem pole.

The expired Cow - 0.23% - Another dead character...

Chance - 1%
There are very few things that this show has going for it in terms of getting any rep for this game. Even if it got more than one season, things still wouldn't look so good if it was still as obscure as it is. First, the devs haven't paid much attention to obscure Nick shows. The closest is probably ARM, but that's leagues more well known than The X's. Second, there's the 90's bias. The majority of shows represented have started in the 90's, and while they do seem to be adding more 2000's characters in DLC, that also brings marketability into the factor. A character barely anyone knows isn't likely to sell much. There is a very slim chance he could get into some sort of sequel... or sequel of a sequel. But now, I don't see it happening.

Want - 52%
I remember seeing an episode of The X's a while back and I thought it was... okay. Not offensively bad or a hidden gem, but okay. I do really like the show's artstyle. But his status as a spy can bring fun gadgets to the table. I also think he actually has the leg up on his family. Truman and Tuesday are kids with access to strange equipment, which could be a fun archetype. However, it's also one that has a lot of competition. I also like how cubic he looks.

Abstaining on want and chance for Mr. X. I dunno anything about this series, but from what I can tell, it's super obscure these days and basically no one's talking about it, so if I had to guess, he's probably not getting in.

Bubble Bass Prediction: 5%
He's at least more of a contender than Kelpy G or Fred the Fish is, since his one major appearance is actually pretty memorable. That said, he is basically relegated to a background extra these days, so...

Expired Cow chance: 0%
I don't think I need to explain this one - I think there are reasons the cow may be on the radar (He's a bit of a fan favourite, especially for people who got into Fred or Nickcoms through QuintonReviews) but he's also way too niche to get in for memes' sake since you'd have to watch a 3 hour video essay with only 2 million views and a very clear aim at an audience older than Nick's (+ analytical vibe that doesn't really gel with Nick's fun aesthetic + frequently criticises Nick's practices) that isn't even entirely about Nickelodeon to understand why he's got such a fandom. Not to mention that the Fred IP must be a legal nightmare as an adapted show from the formative years of internet media, and the inherent nature of LA royalties - which raises another issue for the Expired Cow: the reason he's even funny is because he's an anthropomorphic animal with a human face, if you stylised him we would completely lose the charm. While you could play fully into the uncanny valley by making him unfittingly realistic like a reverse Steve/G&W, that would be pretty difficult and not worth it for a character who - let be real - even considering isn't worth

haha random side character from a bygone era

Chance: 0%

Welp there you have it. I finally gave out my first zero of this thread. This character is just no,no,no and no, First, Fred is a dead meme. Sure he was pretty big back then but now no one ever talks about him, aside from the occasional conversation about the early internet days. So I don't fancy his chances, let alone an obscure character from one episode of his show. This would be like if I nominated idk Puffy Fluffy from that one horrible episode of Spongebob. This game doesn't have the roster, budget or pedigree to add random ass side characters from a dead show.

Want: 0%

Even back then as a 10 year old I was never into Fred. The most I watched from him was that one movie that was boooorrrriiiing. But oh wait we are rating a cow with a real person's face on it. Yeah this could be nightmare fuel if the devs don't pull this off perfectly. Why don't we get Otis instead?

Bubble Bass is famous for one episode only and that's basically it. Apparently he has made a comeback in recent seasons but he's still essentially just extras fodder. Squidward, Plankton and Mr. Krabs are all requested characters and even if they wanted to go for a WTF pick there is competition with the likes of the "My leg!" guy.

Want: 1%

I wouldn't be mad but even compared to the "My Leg!" guy, Bubble Bass is not as funny. Plus he would have to heavily rely on voice acting which is heavily implied but not guaranteed. If we can't even hear his famous line then I don't want him playable at all.

Bubble Bass is one of the more known spongebob recurring guest characters. His episode is considered a classic. He has apparently appeared a couple times since and has at least one new episode about him. But I can't really see him getting in before the big three of Squidward, Plankton and Mr. Krabs. And there are other Spongebob side characters I think we'd get before him.

Want- 10%
Bubble Bass is kind of one note. He's a mean bully and "lol he fat." There are other Spongebob characters I'd want more. I do actualy think they could do something fun with him though. His big size and lazy attitude could make for a fun character. I'm not pushing for him but I wouldn't be mad if he did show up.

He's gonna get that cake, Fred.

Chance - 0%
Yeah. No. An extremely obscure one off villian from a cancelled live action show based on a youtube character who has been retired by their creator for probably more than a decade at this point? I can't see it. Fred himself is more likely, ajd even then he'd still get a zero! This IP is dead, tangled up in rights messes, and the character himself isn't even a big part of the Ip. This game needs characters who will sell.

Want - 0%
I normally bump up these joke picks a little for haha funny factor but I can't even do that here. This thing is terrifying and also associated with an era of Nick that I think most would rather forget. Also does he even have any moveset potential?

Bubble Bass has made a grand comeback in the most recent seasons of the show, becoming a supporting character with much more appearances and even a few focus episodes. (Lord knows why it wasn't always this way, seeing he was the only person Spongebob didn't like, which could have lead to some interesting story potential.) So the fact Bubble Bass is a real character now could bode well for him... if he didn't have Squidward, Krabs and Plankton to worry about.

I wouldn't mind having Bubble Bass. It'd be a fun and interesting pick. Spongebob could definitely use some not-a-main-character choices to shake things up.

The Expired Cow

Chance: 0% - For the first time I'm gonna give a character a 0%! The Expired cow is a one-off villain from a super unpopular show in an IP cancelled by Fred himself. Nobody ever talks about the show, the devs wouldn't care about him, he has no fan demand, and is definitely not a heavy hitter who can sell DLC. Not to mention he's a live action character (and we know how difficult they would be) and is apparently one hell of a rights mess? Yeah, he's not happening, literally nothing going in his favor.

Want: 0% - That cursed still of him on the stairs is pretty funny, but aside from that, I have no reason to want him in the game. Plus there's already Otis!


Bubble Bass

Chance: 5% - Bubble Bass IS a memorable character, and while originally a one-off character (beyond a cameo in Plankton) he became a more reoccuring character in Season 9 to try and bring old fans back onto the show, However, despite his meme power, he still has the highly requested (and even more memeable) Squidward, Krabs, and Plankton to worry about. Maybe when Spongebob gets through its' core characters (or at lease after Squidward/Krabs), but I can't see him happening anytime soon. There also isn't much fan demand asking for him anyway.

Want: 5% - Bubble Bass was a very hilarious and memorable character, and would no doubt have a great moveset! But right now I have no reason to want him in the game. Give is at least Squidward/Krabs first! I know people like off the wall picks, but off the wall for the sake of off the wall is extremely irritating, and this kind of off the wall pick is one of the things that turns off so many outsiders from the game. Yeah, people can make the argument that in Nicktoons MLB we got Flying Dutchman/Larry over Squidward/Krabs, but that wasn't a fan demand-based game, and they're at least major side characters!


Nominations:
Jack Fenton xAll

Predictions:
Snap - 54.68% - Snaps increased popularity in the poll results, along with the general desire for 2000's Nicktoons in the game, will result in some great scores for Snap! He may also have the edge on Rudy, due to Rudy being a drawing-based character (and a slower/more technical drawing moveset wouldn't be very Melee-friendly), so he'slikely be more difficult to implement.

 

[Ze Diglett]

Chance: 10%

In terms of SpongeBob extras and supporting characters, Bubble Bass is probably on the more well-known side. The episode he's known for is one of the most memorable in the entire series, and he's even become a recurring character in recent seasons. He's also one of the most memed SpongeBob characters, which is impressive considering his relatively minor status compared to likewise memed characters like Krabs and Patrick. (He's even got an emote in the official NASB Discord, which... is something!) If the devs decide to go for a non-standard SpongeBob pick, I'd say Bubble Bass has a damn good shot since, as evidenced by Hugh's inclusion, they aren't afraid to add so-called "meme picks" as DLC. That said, it would require them skipping over the obvious like Krabs and Plankton, so his odds aren't looking too great in the grand scheme of things.

Chance: 0%

I think we've found it. The single least likely character for NASB. I didn't think it would happen, the science just wasn't there, but by God we found it.

In all seriousness, lol no. I wouldn't even give FRED himself a singular %, much less a one-off villain from an episode of his show. FRED's an IP that's not current or commonly discussed and also has a ton of legal and logistical red tape behind it, so it's one of the few Nickelodeon series I'm willing to give a 0% chance of showing up in this game. This is on top of live-action characters in general being unlikely for reasons I laid out in my LA writeup. All that is on TOP of The Expired Cow being a nobody, even in the context of his own series. Unless Rep is reading this post right now and thinking "y'know, maybe we should put The Expired Cow from FRED: The Show in our Nickelodeon fighting game", there's just no way this character shows up in any capacity. (If that is the case, though, please make sure to give us a shoutout in the gameplay showcase!)

Want: 0%

Kudos to whoever nominated this for giving me a laugh, but as mildly amusing as this character's existence is, he really has no business being in this game. Albert's pretty much my limit as far as funny obscure characters go.
Also, are we going to witness our first sweep of straight double 0's with The Expired Cow today? That'd actually be something.

Snap Prediction: 50%
ChalkZone's always had a surprisingly dedicated fandom, which was most recently shown by Snap placing twice on a recent fanpoll. As such, I think he's more than earned himself a spot in the top 10 even if his show's fairly obscure and after the devs' time.

The Expired Cow

Chance - 0% - Live action is already a hard sell. He's also a minor one-episode character at that. From a show that wasn't all that fondly remembered to begin with. I honestly can't even think of any positives. I don't see why he would join.

Want - 0% - No. Another character that's deliberately scrapping the bottom of the barrel.


Bubble Bass

Chance - 5% - Originally a a minor villain in SpongeBob season 1, as of 9 he has become another reoccurring face of the show. He has evolved into a basement-dwelling unemployed nerd who is more of a nuisance rather than a true outright threat. While his more recent status may give him some potential, overall he's simply outclassed in demand by the more typical and reoccurring faces of Squidward, Mr. Krabs, and Plankton, to the point where he is fairly unlikely.

Want - 40% - Eh, could be cool, but I would rather have one of the abovementioned 3 rather than him. No real strong feelings.

Snap, and a ChalkZone rep in general, seem to have a lot of fan demand behind them. For a 2000s show it does farily well on the polls and seems to at least be on the dev's radar. And Jenny shows they're open to that era of things . Now, do they do for Rudy and Snap or just Snap? Personally I think Snap is a bit better suited to a fighting game. His hand drawn style would help him stand out and there is definitely a fun and creative moveset to be had. Perhaps they could find a way to have Rudy hang out in the back Pokemon Trainer style?

People have really moved onto Chalkzone as the next 2000's show they want in the game now that Jenny and Hugh are accounted for and FOP is still in limbo. Snap managed to place twice in the top 25 of the latest fan poll, which is nothing at all to sneeze at.
Snap is the one with all the demand and is definitely a more exciting choice for a character than Rudy (who I always thought was kind of a square.) Plus every Chalkzone episode had segments where Snap had solo adventures without Rudy or Penny, so it's not impossible to imagine he'd be able to work on his own without needing Rudy as backup (unless he needs him to DRAH SAMNTHEN!)

The Expired Cow is now the least likely character, the least wanted character, the second member of the Less Likely Than Goku Club, and, as far as I know, the only character in RTC history to get nothing but 0s in both Chance and Want. That's quite the achievement if I do say so myself.

ChalkZone has two main things going against it currently: it's kind of obscure and not often talked about anymore, and it exists in that weird mid-2000's limbo where it's not current, but also not old enough to be fashionably "retro" like many of the shows of the 90's are. However, the big thing going in its favor is that the people who are talking about it are REALLY dedicated to it. ChalkZone's probably got one of the most vocal fandoms I've ever seen relative to its size and stature, and those fans are making their voices heard for this game. We've all seen the recent fanpoll where Snap just barely snuck into the top 10 (and the top 20 along with Rudy), so the demand is provably there. In this way, Snap is kind of like this game's Geno, but in a much better position since these devs are already proving themselves to be much more receptive to fan demand than a cold, unfeeling monolith like Nintendo is. When it comes to non-obvious picks (i.e. anyone other than Jimmy, Timmy, Zuko, and [insert SpongeBob character here]), I think Snap's definitely a sleeper pick and we're more likely to see him than not.

Somehow I completely missed this show, even though it aired on Nickelodeon in the exact time period when I was still watching cartoons. Guess it must've had some really crummy timeslots or something. That said, it looks charming enough (if maybe a little generic, being another school cartoon) and I do gotta respect a fandom as dedicated as this show's is. This is a "sure, why not?" pick for me.

Sabrina Prediction: 1.3%
Pretty sure this show's at least partially not owned by Nick, and also, live-action.

It did once Jimmy Neutron beat its record for the most watched Nicktoon premiere.

Oof. Well that's awkward, knowing that my favorite Nicktoon effectively lived off the blood of this one.

To be fair, Jimmy had a super short run too - a lot more merchandise and air time though.

Nick just didn't care about CZ in general, having kept the first season on the backburner for three years. Jimmy's ratings were just the perfect excuse to keep neglecting it.

Eh, three seasons + a movie isn't that short, especially compared to what a lot of Nick shows got. (It actually got more episodes than ChalkZone did, even if it technically had less seasons.)

Did it? It felt like Jimmy Neutron went on for years.

A lot of it comes from the sheer amount of reruns the show got.

As explained above, ChalkZone is a niche show with a loud fanbase. At the same time, that also applies to other candidates like Otis and El Tigre who had a similar amount of votes in that one poll that Ze Diglett shared. But what helps out Snap is that he is the frontrunner for his series. He's got the most demand and has the unique art style and moveset potential to make him appealing. So in a nutshell he's in a pretty good spot but I'm less certain of him than others here.

Want: 50%

I feel like I saw this show before but if I did I didn't watch too much of it or I didn't care for it. So Snap wouldn't excite me much. But a lot of people love him with his chalk style and wisecracking personality; I can see how he can be an interesting fighter so I'll keep my mind open.
