it’s a mario kart 8 koopalings situation. If you love them, you’ll never want them to leave the roster. If you hate them, you think they’re taking up way too much space in the roster so you can’t get x character.


bruh we already got two beavers in timmy and lincoln smh
Considering Turtles is one of the oldest and most popular IPs in the world.... I think more people will like them then not.

Kind of makes me wonder why Garfield isn’t in here considering the recent acquisition.

And since Nickelodeon owns them, I will not be satisfied until they do something with Mighty Mouse and Terrytoons.

*sees Nick Racing roster*

> Danny is back. 10 points.
> Other characters from old shows. 20 points.
> Good mix of new and old. 20 points.
> SpongeBob is up top. 50 points.
> No Timmy and no Jimmy. The Nickelodeon A Team is not back due to their absence. -40 points.
> Real girl yet no iCarly or Drake and Josh. “Drake, hand me the power saw...-50 POINTS!”

Total: 10 points because it still has good picks, but the absences disappoint me.

Shredder is really unnecessary. People are making jokes about a violent character in the game and whatnot, but he really isn’t needed. Honestly, I would’ve been fine with any other Ninja Turtle character. But Shredder... why?? And while they could’ve been in a row of their own, I was thinking of it like ‘nick has this amount of characters they can make before release. who?’ so I replaced those I deemed unnecessary. I only removed Lincoln+Lucy and left Clyde because I thought that would be funny. And even though technically I placed them in their own slots, I think Fanboy and Chum Chum would be super fun if they were both combined into one character. Fanboy is so skinny, if he was driving, Chum Chum can always fit in the back and be the one throwing items (idk if the game has items or not i haven’t played). And if not Reptar, some other Rugrats character. We don’t need 3 babies in this game. But yeah glad we can agree on Jimmy, Timmy, and Krabs.
Shredder is the most iconic thing about turtles after the main four. How is he unnecessary?

I guess you can say you had "eggs in a casket" for dinner.

That was a terrible pun and could've done it better.
Chuggaaconroy would be proud of you.

Speaking of him, it's really a experience to play Xenoblade DE & follow his videos at the same time you are in the game. Really show you the difference between the two version aswell as helping you alot when it come to sidequests & stuff like that.

there’s a lot of things which nintendo could’ve done but didn’t. maybe they didn’t add garfield since there’s already a garfield kart racing game on switch?
edit: if i say nintendo one more time i’m going back to bed
Shredder is the most iconic thing about turtles after the main four. How is he unnecessary?
Iconic or not, nobody was begging to play as giant metal suit man. He’s just, nothing special.
I didn’t think Angelica counted as a baby.
Umbrella term. She’s still only, like, 3 years old.

anyways i really don’t want to start arguing over smth like nick so uhh
i still respect your opinions?

TFW you bought a used Vita for P4G because you didn't expect it to be re-released and now it's on Steam

is that how that came out? sorry, i was trying to reiterate what I was saying in a more definite way, and yeah, I definitely just used opinion in an argument. let’s try that again.
iconic =/= necessary
he’s iconic, sure, but that doesn’t make him necessary. if nick makes a new show about a dog who likes soda and it blows up and becomes their most popular show, they’d probably think it’s at least necessary to add the main character from said show. But shredder is one of the villains from a show which isn’t its most successful show. Sure, he’s the main villain, but it’s not like he’s the only one.
Anyways, it literally has more characters than spongebob, which... *is* their most successful show. You see the issue? Sure, it isn’t TMNT’s fault, they have four main characters. But that doesn’t excuse the fact.
And you’re probably gonna say something like ‘that contradicts what you said earlier, you said you’d be fine with anyone except shredder, who would still have the same problem’ and you’d be right. I just said that cuz I don’t like shredder.

Shredder is probably their most popular character (alongside April, Casey, and Splinter, who could still be in the game) in the franchise. That and having one villain at the least is quite nice

and Rugrats mainly consists of babies as main characters, which has never been a problem before (even with All Grown Up) being a thing. So I'm sure having those dumb babies and Angelica being there is a good thing, especially for once their revival happens

Garfield was also probably too late

nobody was begging for a racing game at this day in age either tbf
If it was up to me I would’ve put in Katara, Sokka and Zuko alongside Aang. I’d say Toph too but the logic side of me would be skeptical about her driving a car.
Toph would've been a great driver...with the Flintstones car (that and she's good at baseball)

most successful show no, but it is Nick's most successful franchise (and the only franchise they could pretty much do whatever crossover they want. I don't see Spongebob teaming up with Batman or the Ghostbusters...yet)

That specific iteration of turtles might not be their biggest success. But turtles as a whole certainly is and they own the intellectual property. The past legacy of the turtles becomes theirs by default. Their two highest grossing media franchises are SpongeBob at $14.8 billion and turtles at $14.6. Of course turtles is gonna have a size-able ammount if characters.

I think the biggest concern here is that turtles aren't really a Nicktoon. Yeah, they own the IP, but it's not a Nick show and it really shows. Same with that brief time they had Power Rangers, same with the Rabbids, same with all the Dreamworks shows - they aren't Nicktoons, they're 'toons ON Nick.

I agree with the one villain thing, but I just wish it wasn’t shredder. Just me tho, don’t read into that and don’t argue against it pls
Anyways, I agree with rugrats, I just don’t see why they have four characters. Not to pull the spongebob card again, but that’s literally the amount of character that spongebob has.
but whatever
and they could 100% do a spongebob crossover with anything, except it’s too cartoony. Nick wants ninja turtles to be realistic and feel like it’s in some dark superhero world. That’s how they can crossover with batman or ghostbusters. Spongebob, well, isn’t exactly the same. May not be the reason and I may be wrong

Of course turtles is gonna have a size-able ammount if characters.
But more than Spongebob doesn’t make sense. Unless they’re trying to promote that newish tmnt iteration of there’s (which i don’t think they’re doing since they used the 2012 iterations) then i don’t see why they would have more tmnt than spongebob. Yes, they’re really close with profit, but spongebob is something everybody knows. It’s still running to this day (same series since it started, something tmnt can’t say) and is basically the face of nick at this point. I may be wrong tho

sooo are we good?

Fair point I guess. But they’re a cartoon owned by Nick so.... semantics I guess.

See Also Jojo Siwa, the people asking for Drake and Josh or iCarly, or the fact that it’s “Nickelodeon Kart Racing” and not “Nicktoons Kart Racing”.

Yeah and that's equally irritating. She's the ****ing Danica Patrick of this game.

On an entirely unrelated note, "I Believe" from Royal is like what would you would get if Life Will Change and Rivers in the Desert had a child together and I'm eargasming from it

Your talking to the wrong person about Danica. Jojo is just a shoehorning in of a fad celebrity to pander to children. Danica is a really weird left field inclusion that’s awesome and hilarious.

Toph sees through the vibrations in the earth. Including Metal. And can sense earth even when it’s not connected to the ground. She could totally drive.
That might be a bit of a stretch, I don’t remember an instance where she saw through the earth in a metal area, not to mention the rubber tires might get in the way. Though I could totally see them just not caring about any of that and putting her in regardless. I love how you of all people are trying to correct me on Avatar btw

I just remember from Death Battle. Plus, even though I didn’t like it I did watch all the way through.

So like, this is pretty appropriate to the Nick discussion right now, but I just found out that Spongbob's canonically asexual thanks to a twitter trend revolving around this tweet:

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Also, Happy Pride Month!​

Simple, just turn the screen black whenever you play as her. Navigate entirely through memorization and sound.

Toph is hard mode.

So I guess Spongebob wasn’t part of Nick’s “love action side” mentioned earlier then.

Alright, I'm back. Sorry for bugging you guys, but I really want to complete the Galar Dex before the Isle of Armor, and all I have left are the Shield exclusives + a little more. If anyone is willing to help me, please let me know.

Decided to give the Lady and the Tramp live action a watch on Disney+. Having watched the classic animated version back during my childhood days, does the live action live up to its expectations.

In some ways, yes and no. I noticed a number of scenes which have been changed in contrast to the animated version for example, the live action fleshed out a bit more of Tramp's character on how he became a stray. However, whilst I do runderstand some of the other changes such as Aunt Helen's cats and their song from the animated version which was deemed offensive, but it just fell rather flat with no ounce of personality. I also do wish they gave Yvette Nicole Brown's character a bit more time to shine as she did not have enough screen time.

In addition, some of the scenes felt rather muddled, uneven pacing and often rushed. For example, in the animated version Lady was introduced to the baby before Aunt Helen came, but in the live action version, it was the opposite way around and it wasn't until when Aunt Helen left, Jim Dear and Darling finally allowed Lady to see the baby which doesn't really seem to give Lady much of her purpose and role within the film.

The main highlights of the film is the Bella Notte scene which brings vivid memories of the original as well as the chase for Tramp scene close towards the ending of the film.

Overall, its not a bad remake, although they could've tightened up the changes a lot more within some of its scenes.

My rating: 6.5/10

...There was a live action Lady and the Tramp movie? I‘m not sure if my lack of knowledge means I’m an idiot or it was a really forgettable film.

Nah I’d rather wait for P3 or P5...
that’s still gonna happen, right?
If they're going to do it, now's the time. Royal hype is at it's peak (and with good reason - it is an absolutely fantastic upgrade to an already fantastic game) - announcing that the mainline Persona series in full has broken free of the shackles of the Sony brand would be huge.

Of course, you have the Sony fanboys who get mad that they're losing an exclusive, but that's not a bad thing. Half of all PS4 owners just use it to play CoD and sports games anyway.
