Game is actually pretty polished compared to what it looks like. Playing it feels better than it looks for sure. Still hope they continue to improve on this though!
As a 36 year old dude who bought this to play with his son, I have to admit that everything this game does ranks anywhere from "fine" to "really damn good" It would be an understatement for me to say that I was pleasantly surprised.
It wouldn’t matter. You could give this dev all of the money in the world and they would spend it on marketing. The devs and publisher are known shovelware companies and everyone refuses to acknowledge that.
One sec. Fox, Captain Falcon, Falco, Pit, Wario, Olimar, Wolf, Bowser Jr., Ridley, Steve...Yeah, Smash has some vehicular manslaughter as well. Bit of everything, I guess.
Speaking of Smash I still hope that these two Smash Veterans are added to Nick All Star Brawl as DLC Ryu From Street Fighter and Sonic The Hedgehog Since hey The Sonic Movie aired on Nickelodeon as some point And Street Fighter and TMNT did 2 crossovers (A Comic Crossover and the TMNT showed up in SF6)
The saddest thing is, you can totally see where some of these were going but they were just lacking in the supers' storyboarding and such. I mean, just look at Aang's super as an example. In the original show, he charged this attack by swirling all 4 elements around him creating an absolutely massive spear-like attack that, with a big arching motion, he struck down with devastating force (even though it never actually landed because spoilers). In the show, that animation had a ton of weight and build up to it. You knew that if that attack hit, it would be totally destructive. But here, even though they're clearly trying to imitate that scene from the show, there's no motion, no projectile, nothing. This couldn't have been what they wanted this to look like, right? Like, that animation feels like it should've been much more than it actually was.
@@johnmaco Why would they? And don't say "Because they did in Smash". Completely different situation here. Everyone here in NASB2 has the same Area Of Effect activation for their super, and the resulting payoffs are all the same. Final Smashes activated via meters were _WILDLY_ different in AoE and payoff between each character. They were supposed to be a bit weaker compared to Smash Ball versions, but some like Ness and Zelda were still extremely effective while other characters were clearly inferior.
it genuinely feels like most of the sound effects are missing, like in the guitar chick's super there's no sound effect for the projectile and only a single flaccid guitar sound
@@Wrenchmonkey375 or the angry beavers one where they throw the gun, literally NO hit sound or the opponent making a noise, nothing. Just silent as they fly away.
Speaking of April I still hope that the game adds in these TMNT character's Krang Casey Jones Splinter Bebop That plus bring back Leonardo and Michelangelo Ect....................................
@@dylansmith5206 Bringing back Leo and Mikey should be easy since their models are already in Donatellos super, it's weird that they were even removed at all
You can REALLY tell which supers were really cared for. Like Reptar and Gerald having these long drawn out supers with just a little bit of story telling (literally for Gerald) is a big difference to characters like April who makes a spirit bomb and throws it at the enemy.
Yeah, with April it feels like they ran out of ideas. It'd be like if Casey Jones was in the game and his Super was him doing a hockey stick-shaped Kamehameha.
@@DarkOverlord96 Someone else here in the comments section said it best, April should have got Donnie's super. It might be another "hit them with the car" super, but April is starving for options, Donnie is not.
The first character showcases didn't even have supers because they weren't finished yet, the gameplay is pretty good so i guess they had to make sacrifices due to time constraints. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.
For me, Ren and Stimpy is the best because of how beautifully it was animated, and the worst one is Jenny's because she has a lot more potential. I hope the sound issues and maybe some of the visuals will get fixed in future patches.
That I would heavily agree, I would make a minor rant about Jenny's ability as much of a good character, she is. But I'll keep it short. The super is done too quickly, and their was at least another idea or two that could've been shared, and the move was pretty lame compared to all the others
Even with the E rating and any sort of time/budget constraints, I feel like some of these lack some creativity. Out of the hundreds of Spongebob episodes and handful of movies, all they could think of for Plankton was a Self Destruct?
@@zanpakutoman4225 A self-destruct isn't a bad idea for a super, but what ruins it is that right after the explosion, it immediately snaps out of the cutscene and shows him not self-destructed. That's my biggest problem with most of them, the transition from cutscene back to gameplay is way too abrupt, as if the attack in the cutscene never actually happened.
LOL I was thinking the same while watching, but overall I feel like the supers were intended to be silly show references rather than cool supers so I don't mind them being rated for what the game devs were going for
Somehow I think that the best super for Garfield is one where he doesn't do anything at all, just watches whatever happens happen. A super is meant to represent maximum effort, after all, so what better version of that could there be for Garfield than no effort at all? My vote is for the "TOO MUCH RICE" tidal wave, but any time where Jon screws up and Garfield just gets to watch the dominoes fall is good enough for me.
Speaking of Garfield I still hope that they add in Snoopy From Peanuts as a guest fighter (Since Nickelodeon did air some of the Peanuts Animated Specials) To where we can see who is the better Newspaper Comic Strip Brawler
one thing you HAVE to give this game is that it somehow makes the offmodel crazy faces these characters make look really good in 3D, and characters like Jenny, Danny, and Gerald look like they are straight from their show. If Nick made any of those shows 3D you know the models would have less than 20% of the style they do in this game
9:12 speaking as someone who loves My Life as a Teenage Robot, her super is a doubly huge L because not only is it a pretty terrible super by the game's standards, but it's also just a really random pull from the source material, especially considering how much the team loves the moveset (evident by them changing very little from the first game). They had other options that would've been so much better, but I have to wonder if there were higher ups turning potential better ideas down.
I do think that, at the moment, the super moves look a bit janky. I saw Hungry Box's video showing them all and the strange lack of sound effects and the amount of lingering some supers have is a bit... weird? Im hoping they'll get an update but otherwise they are pretty cool.
@@ConnardYulie Potentially. I guess in the grand scheme of things, they function and if something had to be kinda janky, it makes sense it was something new. I imagine we'll get a patch to fix them up a bit but, at the very least, those seem to be the only really janky things in the game. Everything else looks great
Speaking of Plankton I still hope that the game will add in these Spongebob character's- Ms. Puff Pearl Larry The Lobster Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy Man Ray Bubble Bass The Flying Dutchman That plus bring back Snady Ect.................................................................
Speaking of Jimmy We still need to See Carl Wheezer Hugh Neutron Cindy Vortex Sheen Professor Calamitous Ultra Lord Ect....................................................
It’s funny how most of the supers in this game lose impact because of the sound and Gerald’s super is a 10/10 mostly because of the sound. Without Gerald telling his ghost story, the super wouldn’t be nearly as good.
Speaking of Gerald I still hope that the game adds in these Hey Arnold Characters- Arnold Himself Sid and Stinky Harold Grandpa Phil That plus bring back Helga Ect....................................................................
Never before in my life have I missed quality audio design so much then after witnessing these characters pulling out a nuke and it just goes "wooooosh"
Ren and Stimpy one was so good because it had what you'd want in a super from this game, a fun direction and sounds that convince the impact. Half these supers would be so much better if they just had sound, man.
Speaking of Ren And Stimpy I still hope they bring back Powdered Toast Man That plus add in Mr. Horse And the Fire Chief that was modeled after Ralph Bakshi Ect..........................................
On the plus side, having the thing that's holding back all these supers being the audio is... probably the easiest thing to fix from a development standpoint. I could see them patching in updated sound for supers much more realistically than I could see them re-animating things or fussing with the pacing of the supers.
the pacing shouldnt rly be that hard to fix either - just dragging around some keyframes would do wonders for a lot of these - but who knows if the animators are gonna have time to work on that when they have DLC chars to crank out
It's not just the audio. The camera angles are weak, the transitions between shots are weak, they take you out of the action for several seconds, and the characters kind of just float in the void while action lines run past them. Like 90% of these are basically Byleth's final smash from Ultimate but *worse.* And Byleth's final smash is one of the worst in that game. If you ask me, a lot of these shouldn't have been cutscenes, they should've just had the animations play on the actual stage. I think at least half of them would've been way better if they didn't take you out of the action.
@@aringorski4786 That's more of a general cinematic super problem. The worst part is that I'm pretty sure it's possible to have it both ways: Hype supers to impress the players for the first time they see a character but without breaking gameplay flow. See, they just need a "short supers' toggle in the options. If both players have short supers toggled on you get a 1-2 second super flash into hit animation that's focused on putting you in exactly the same place with the same health that the super would leave you with. Toggled off by default, and when you get tired of seeing supers you can turn it on.
@@aringorski4786another thing i find really aggravating is how nothing serms to happen after the super ends, no explosions, no hurt sounds not even a slow mo, the character just takes damage.
I like that max pointed out he never did a rate the super for PS All stars. As many times he's played it with the yovideogames crew i didnt realize it either. Cant wait for that upload
some of these are definitely not finished, but I think the only one that disappointed me was Jenny’s. Out of all the crazy things that she could’ve had; the blades I forgot the name of were kinda lame lol
Or the one scene from This time with feeling. Jenny could've said "That's it, Batter up!" with the one punch from her fist of fury or replace the fist with the mallet
I feel like this game is in an odd kind of situational limbo. Max was right when he observed that since it's based off of kids' cartoons, the developers were obviously going to avoid getting too violent (plus Nick probably had pretty tight control over what they could and couldn't do). At the same time, however, most of the characters in the game are from shows that aired from the late 80s to 2000s, and the people who watched those shows are now in their 30s or 40s, and hardly need their precious little eyes shielded from seeing Garfield punching Danny Phantom in the face. So they're trying to appeal to younger kids who won't recognize most of the cast, while also trying to appeal to Millennials who will be annoyed by the watered-down content.
Speaking of Garfield I still hope that they add in Snoopy From Peanuts as a guest fighter (Since Nickelodeon did air some of the Peanuts Animated Specials) To where we can see who is the better Newspaper Comic Strip Brawler
The thing about PSABR's supers is that when you do the level 3 it actually lets the characters shine. NASB 2 feels too afraid to go any further than they already have.
Think Azula’s should have been when she shoots lightning at Aang’s back with the black and white effect. Hard to think of one for Aang and Korra. I guess Aang’s Boulder compression bullets would have been cool. Maybe Korra could’ve done something when she’s flying in the Avatar State against Zaheer with the chain.

It would make more sense if she shot that fire blast above the audience while you stand at the very back right in front of her as her finishing note to end you and her song
Speaking of Ember I still hope that Nick All Star Brawl adds in these Danny Phantom Character's- Skulker The Box Ghost The Lunch Lady Dark Danny (The Adult Version Of Danny Phantom) Dani (The Female Clone of Danny) That plus make Vlad playable Ect..................................
Iirc it's a nod to her debut episode minus her hypnotizing students to attack Mr. Lancer .... actually now that I think about it, the super would be better if she actually hypnotized random students to attack the opponent and trample them. Even though it'd be oofers on the animation bill
Aside from the sound being messed up I think the characters look weird when they don't react to the supers. They stand in their fighting pose while they're getting hit by the genki dama or the trains. They should at least look dizzy, surprised, or cower in fear.
I forgive them for that, but mostly because that would require a ton of extra animation work. You can't just throw a generic "afraid" animation on everyone because the cast is so wildly differently proportioned from one another. A lot of supers would require a unique animation just for the super. Still, a lot of the animations do suffer from a lack of reaction from the target, the biggest offender being Rocco's.
@@kevingriffith6011 Speaking Of Rocko Still hope that the game adds in these RML character's- Heffer Filburt Mr. Bighead Really Really Big Man Ect..................................
Easy Garfield super: He's sleeping, gets a wiff of lasagna, crashes through the enemies sending them flying in all directions as he rushes towards it, ending with a shot of him eating it happily. Instead of.... fantasy pastries do a flying kick
One thing that bothers me is the unnatural transition back from the supers. I think many of these would look a lot better if the cinematic ended at the exact moment the target character gets hit.
Legitimately, just have one big ghost deliver a haymaker to launch them out of ghost prison would do wonders for the... jankiness of it. Like, you've locked them in a ghost prison, but because this is a platform fighter the super has to send them flying regardless of if it makes sense from the visual of the super.
Yeah, alongside a spit out animation as if the thermo is overloading for all the beating yer getting and ends up shooting you away Because you just being trapped inside there and then suddenly appearing flying off looks weird as heck
So many of these involve the target just standing completely still, expressing zero emotion, then getting hit by something. It makes some of them hilarious, like Jimmy getting blindsided by the train, but most of them just feel empty.
I think April should've gotten a Turtle Van super to reference that one shot from the intro (after running over everyone), giving that to one of the TMNT when the other one just uses his weapon skills and April has a Spirit Bomb feels pretty fuckin' random. And yeah, why the fuck aren't the other TMNT in this?
Speaking Of TMNT I still hope that Nick All Star Brawl 2 adds in these TMNT character's- Casey Jones Splinter Krang Bebop That plus bring back Leo And Mikey Ect...............................................
Fun little note about the supers, specially Aang's, in the spotlight trailer videos for the characters you can actually see a lot of the missing vfx. It's rather odd that the polish in those character trailers isn't present here on full release, but it at least gives me hope that they can work those rough spots out faster and reliably.
8:34 I think that I'd give it an 8/10 if instead of one flying kick they had these weird food homonculi just stomping all over the enemy while they're down. At least it'd be funnier.
Another complaint about the supers that weren't mentioned is that all of them do base 40% damage. It feels like some of them should do a bit more or a bit less damage than that for the sake of variety, as well as some of them looking like they could be a potential IK at 100% like what Ultimate did.
@@GuitarSlayer136 stinks that the game is still so held back by its presentation. It’s a massive step up from the original game and fixed nearly every complaint people had with 1, but the budget and rushed development is still glaring in a lot of areas. At least it managed to avoid the classic fighting game sin of ‘no single player content’ this time around.
I think one of the big lessons to learn from these is that not every super has to be a huge Cinematic. Jenny could have a big beam like Samus, Danny could get a big vacuum attack like Luigi, and Granny could've summoned an actual train on stage to run suckers over And they all would've had more oomph to them because of it
Speaking of Danny Still hope that the game adds in these DP character's- Skulker The Box Ghost The Lunch Lady Dark Danny (The Adult Version Of Danny) Dani (The Female Clone Of Danny) That Plus add in Vlad as a playable character
I know, I hate that they had them both in the last game but not in this one. Seems like something that would be easy to just port over, but for some reason they decided not to. Maybe they had a roster limit and wanted to focus on adding more new characters.
@@LooneyTunesBackInActionWasGood Port over? This game is not just a sligthly upgraded version of the first NASB. They build everything from the ground up, that includes all playable characters. In order to bring a character from the first game they had to rethink they entire moveset (even if some characters didn't change much the devs had to consider possible changes). And then they had to re-do every model. And animate Every Single Frame of Every Single Animation. That's A LOT of effort, and they simply did not have the budget or time to do that for EVERY past character and still add so much more. Like, they could have reworked all veterans from the first game, but in that case we may not have gotten any newcomers. Or different modes. We can hope that Leo and Mikey appear as DLC in 2025 or in NASB 3. But for both cases the devs need more money and time.
@@unskilledgamer3642Yeah, but I think it feels weird because April came back, instead of someone like Splinter or Casey. I just wonder on why April chosen to return over Leo and Micky
I feel like for the most of them there's comedic/impact timing on the beats of the supers. Ren & Stimpy definitely have it, letting the explosions and expressions linger a little bit, almost like in slow mo
They are so, so close to nailing this idea. I love how relatively (relatively!) brutal some of these are for a Nick game, too. Ren and Rocko have my favorites, which warms the cockles of my aging heart.
She could have even launched you to another planet on a rocket. She’s got so much potential for cool super moves but I gusss they just didn’t have it in the budget?
Jenny has like even the movies to pick from for big attacks shes done, that and all the benders have actual good moves that couldve been pulled, but i guess making those fast enough for a super wouldve made them all look weird. They all lack cinematic flair, but fair enough its a low budget game, cant be too mad at it.
To contextualize how wonky some of these are imagine Captain Falcon's Final Smash with every player in their idol animation just standing there waiting to get run over by him.
The fact that all of these were cinematic actually harms some of them, since that pause and unpause of the action is jarring, and some supers are just better when they maintain the regular flow of combat. Lucy’s and Azula’s come to mind there.
I feel like Azula's blue fire super would work the best if it was referencing the full psychotic breakdown where shes just screaming in blind rage and breathing fire.
I would love to see a rate the super for PSASBR. One of my favorite fighting games of all time honestly and I really wish Sony had given the team another shot.
Speaking of April I still hope that the game adds in these TMNT character's- Krang Casey Jones Splinter Bebop That plus bring back Shredder Ect..........................................
The funny thing is that El Tigre's super didn't have to be a Ragnorok/Ultimate Spider. It could've more closely resembled Ganondorf's Final Smash and still be faithful to the source material. Still, the benders were done dirty. Jenny especially feels like she was toned down compared to what she could really do in her own show.
Most of these are like 1 or 2 steps away from being good. They feel like they end early too. I see this the most with Danny Phantom, Garfield, and the benders.
It's really cool that they added Supers and some do need to be fixed. Ren and Stimpy's Super is just Amazing, it is a Great reference from the Show. Reptar, Gerald, Zim, SpongeBob and April's Super Attacks are really Cool as well. Since Mr Krabs is confirmed as DLC, his Super should be a reference to the Episode "Clams" where his opponents are tied up as bait and calls the Clam to eat them.
Azula not using lightning in her ultimate seems weird also to me I feel Korra ultimate is better than Aang ultimate because she use the elements like the Avatar and Aang kind of just waves his hand slightly
These feel EXTREMELY "censor board said no". That's why so many people get hit by cars/trains/elephant ass. It must have been the most most violent thing they were allowed to depict! Like Jenny may normally be fine slicing up her enemies, but since this game makes the enemy other Nick characters with picky IP holders they have to just vaguely imply she's slapchoping them. That's why the tiger kid can Ragnarok: they're just cartoon cat claws. Raphael similar, they're so small and NOT-knife looking that they don't make it look like he's actually shanking Squidward.
The greatest issue is clearly the sound ): Budget or not, the sound design in many of these is simply off or lacking. The ideas are almost all super cool and I love when they animate the models to do more of that source animation stuff, but the sound does hold all of them back. Big improvement, but still some stuff to be ironed out!
Speaking of Azula Please Bring back Toph as a fighter That plus add in these Avatar Character's- Sokka Katara Suki Jet King Bumi Avatar Roku Avatar Kyoshi Admiral Zhao Fire Lord Ozai Mai Ty Less Ect.........................................................
In my opinion, most of the supermoves needs work or some change cuz they dont look or feel effective and they're too plain. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they put supermoves in this game but i do wish they give spongebob the goofy goober rock as his supermove
I don't like some of the supers like I think Garfield's should've been him mailing them to Abu Dhabi, him kicking them like what he does with Odie, or a giant pie showing up. Azula should've been her shooting lightning like in Book 2's or Book 3's finale. Jenny's should've been either the laser from the first episode, having her sisters show up, or something from the opening. I think Danny's should've been the Ghostly Wail or the Ecto-Skeleton.
Hell, Garfield's super could have easily been "TOO MUCH RICE!", with him just watching casually as Jon and all of his opponents are swept away in a tidal wave of rice.
7:01 and 11:00 really do show off the difference good cinematography can make. They're very similar supers conceptually, a big energy tornado-y thing, but because the first of the two was just so much more well shot we give it an 8/10, while the second is just much more boring to look at.
a Rate the Supers of PSA would be sick. Did you know that Dart from Legend of Dragoon was planned DLC but didn't make it in. You can find images of the model online tho
A lot of these would be a lot more impactful if the sound were better matching for them. All these big hits coming in hard, but with the quietest noises possible lol
I'm shocked they dont have hit effect with a zoom in like in Smash Ultimate on really strong attacks, it really brings the impact down! (them being unfinished also doesn't help)
I was shocked to see Ember in, but I'm really disappointed in that super. You'd think her strongest move would be sending a stampede of fans to trample you.
Speaking of Garfield Still hope that Nick All Star Brawl 2 adds in Snoopy as a guest DLC fighter To where we can see who is the better comic strip character That plus Nickelodeon did air some Peanuts Specials in the 90's with the segments "Your On Nickelodeon, Charlie Brown"
Now that you mention it, I wouldn't be TOO surprised if the dev team pulled that stunt. They could maybe play it off as a reference to that one scene of that one episode of The Garfield Show where Garfield meets an AU version of himself who randomly turns into a big monster - though, they seem more fond of pulling from Garfield and Friends..
I’m glad everyone universally agrees that Gerald, Reptar, and Ren and Stimpy have the best supers. Gerald’s especially, like god dang they went all in on a classic reference to the series that fits him incredibly well 😂👏👏 Zuko and Iroh are scheduled to arrive as DLC, so hopefully those two have incredible supers to make up for the other Avatar characters 😅
Man, really feels like some sound effects are missing. I mean, that's easy enough thing to patch in, but would help a lot. I'd like to be interested in this game, but I've got no connection to 80% of this roster. I've seen a random clip on TV back in the day, but all I really know from here is Avatar and TMNT (which wasn't even Nick's when it was airing). If this was Cartoon Network, that'd be different. 2:34 This is just begging for TMNT jingle as the car horn or something. 2:57 Man, someone's been having an affair with Goku.
Game has a lot of personality and love put into it but good lord please give them more than the budget of a lemonade stand to polish it up.
Game is actually pretty polished compared to what it looks like. Playing it feels better than it looks for sure. Still hope they continue to improve on this though!

The saddest thing is, you can totally see where some of these were going but they were just lacking in the supers' storyboarding and such. I mean, just look at Aang's super as an example. In the original show, he charged this attack by swirling all 4 elements around him creating an absolutely massive spear-like attack that, with a big arching motion, he struck down with devastating force (even though it never actually landed because spoilers).

Totally agreed, I think the supers were a last minute addition so the studio had little time to make the majority of these supers.
I think if the devs were given more time, they could have done more to polish these up.
It's especially weird when you look at them in total. You have Gerald who tells this story while Lucy just makes a tornado and that's it.

For me, Ren and Stimpy is the best because of how beautifully it was animated, and the worst one is Jenny's because she has a lot more potential. I hope the sound issues and maybe some of the visuals will get fixed in future patches.
That I would heavily agree, I would make a minor rant about Jenny's ability as much of a good character, she is. But I'll keep it short.
The super is done too quickly, and their was at least another idea or two that could've been shared, and the move was pretty lame compared to all the others
Even with the E rating and any sort of time/budget constraints, I feel like some of these lack some creativity. Out of the hundreds of Spongebob episodes and handful of movies, all they could think of for Plankton was a Self Destruct?
Would be interesting if the game was E 10+ or even T. But I sure know that Jenny would be a rated M candidate.
@@zanpakutoman4225 A self-destruct isn't a bad idea for a super, but what ruins it is that right after the explosion, it immediately snaps out of the cutscene and shows him not self-destructed. That's my biggest problem with most of them, the transition from cutscene back to gameplay is way too abrupt, as if the attack in the cutscene never actually happened.
@@Zuxtron Indeed. Maybe if an army of robots turned up and they selfdestructed(but the "main one" didnt), it would have worked better.
Max feeling super generous today, 'cause all of these were given like 2-3 extra pity points.
everything is judged within the game's scope. Hence the IGN 8.5
Yeah, for all the hype this game gets, a lot of it looks pretty cheap and janky to me.
LOL I was thinking the same while watching, but overall I feel like the supers were intended to be silly show references rather than cool supers so I don't mind them being rated for what the game devs were going for
It's almost as if no one can do Smash Bros. like Smash Bros. can.
@@DarkOverlord96Guess you didn't play the first one then.
They went super weird with Garfield's super, like they couldn't come up with an idea. Should have just been him mailing his enemy to Abu Dhabi.
Somehow I think that the best super for Garfield is one where he doesn't do anything at all, just watches whatever happens happen. A super is meant to represent maximum effort, after all, so what better version of that could there be for Garfield than no effort at all?
My vote is for the "TOO MUCH RICE" tidal wave, but any time where Jon screws up and Garfield just gets to watch the dominoes fall is good enough for me.
Speaking of Garfield
I still hope that they add in Snoopy From Peanuts as a guest fighter (Since Nickelodeon did air some of the Peanuts Animated Specials)
To where we can see who is the better Newspaper Comic Strip Brawler
But he promised he’d never mail ‘em to Abu Dhabi anymore!
Yukon is fine.
Garfield dreaming about food felt weird? Tell me you don't know the character without telling me.
I’d have Garfield tackle the opponent into bed with him where they both doze off and in their shared dream Garfield eats the environment with them
one thing you HAVE to give this game is that it somehow makes the offmodel crazy faces these characters make look really good in 3D, and characters like Jenny, Danny, and Gerald look like they are straight from their show. If Nick made any of those shows 3D you know the models would have less than 20% of the style they do in this game
Ren in particular is insane. Basically keyframed each expression as a whole new model.
@1982pokemon plankton had some wicked faces too
@1982pokemon yeah im surprised theyre able to replicate his off model moments well
@@invaderpez12 they do it by litterally swaping out the model for his head.
The Angry Beavers look perfect, they're exactly like in the show
9:12 speaking as someone who loves My Life as a Teenage Robot, her super is a doubly huge L because not only is it a pretty terrible super by the game's standards, but it's also just a really random pull from the source material, especially considering how much the team loves the moveset (evident by them changing very little from the first game). They had other options that would've been so much better, but I have to wonder if there were higher ups turning potential better ideas down.
The giant tennis racket from the intro was right there
My memory of that show are vivid since it's been years since I last saw it, but I know Jenny can do some more impressive stuff.
"a really random pull from the source material"
That's basically most of these Supers in a nutshell, really.
@@leithaziz2716just a heads up, I don't think vivid means what you think it means
I known it's probably not feasible but I was kinda hoping all her sisters would show up. Maybe something like Mega Man's Final Smash.
I do think that, at the moment, the super moves look a bit janky. I saw Hungry Box's video showing them all and the strange lack of sound effects and the amount of lingering some supers have is a bit... weird? Im hoping they'll get an update but otherwise they are pretty cool.
@@ConnardYulie Potentially. I guess in the grand scheme of things, they function and if something had to be kinda janky, it makes sense it was something new. I imagine we'll get a patch to fix them up a bit but, at the very least, those seem to be the only really janky things in the game. Everything else looks great
Also the fact that with only two exception all of them are just “one big kinda unimpactful hit”
They get a long list of changes ready to update including a bunch of helpful QoL changes
it's a shame Plankton's isn't grabbing you flying to space then cometing down back to earth while saying "Maximum OVERDRIVE"

It’s funny how most of the supers in this game lose impact because of the sound and Gerald’s super is a 10/10 mostly because of the sound. Without Gerald telling his ghost story, the super wouldn’t be nearly as good.

Never before in my life have I missed quality audio design so much then after witnessing these characters pulling out a nuke and it just goes "wooooosh"
Ren and Stimpy one was so good because it had what you'd want in a super from this game, a fun direction and sounds that convince the impact. Half these supers would be so much better if they just had sound, man.
Speaking of Ren And Stimpy
I still hope they bring back Powdered Toast Man
That plus add in Mr. Horse
And the Fire Chief that was modeled after Ralph Bakshi
Ect..........................................
It’s one of the better ones for sure. Just wish they could have had one that involved Stimpy
On the plus side, having the thing that's holding back all these supers being the audio is... probably the easiest thing to fix from a development standpoint. I could see them patching in updated sound for supers much more realistically than I could see them re-animating things or fussing with the pacing of the supers.
the pacing shouldnt rly be that hard to fix either - just dragging around some keyframes would do wonders for a lot of these - but who knows if the animators are gonna have time to work on that when they have DLC chars to crank out
It's not just the audio. The camera angles are weak, the transitions between shots are weak, they take you out of the action for several seconds, and the characters kind of just float in the void while action lines run past them. Like 90% of these are basically Byleth's final smash from Ultimate but *worse.* And Byleth's final smash is one of the worst in that game.
If you ask me, a lot of these shouldn't have been cutscenes, they should've just had the animations play on the actual stage. I think at least half of them would've been way better if they didn't take you out of the action.
@@aringorski4786 That's more of a general cinematic super problem. The worst part is that I'm pretty sure it's possible to have it both ways: Hype supers to impress the players for the first time they see a character but without breaking gameplay flow.
See, they just need a "short supers' toggle in the options. If both players have short supers toggled on you get a 1-2 second super flash into hit animation that's focused on putting you in exactly the same place with the same health that the super would leave you with. Toggled off by default, and when you get tired of seeing supers you can turn it on.
@@aringorski4786another thing i find really aggravating is how nothing serms to happen after the super ends, no explosions, no hurt sounds not even a slow mo, the character just takes damage.
I like that max pointed out he never did a rate the super for PS All stars. As many times he's played it with the yovideogames crew i didnt realize it either. Cant wait for that upload
i miss that game
TBH I'm still waiting for him to rate the supers from Street Fighter X Tekken.
We still play all stars in 2023
I'd love to see it. Mostly because I want to see someone talking about Sly Cooper in some capacity again.
some of these are definitely not finished, but I think the only one that disappointed me was Jenny’s. Out of all the crazy things that she could’ve had; the blades I forgot the name of were kinda lame lol
The shivas. And yeah, seems to be the #1 worst super in the game
It would have been effective to just have her use a super attack similar to Megaman or Samus from Smash.
The xj sisters would make it too obvious, she could've done missile barrage or anything else like that
Could've went with the ole has a cannon that gets bigger and more elaborate then fires.
Or the one scene from This time with feeling. Jenny could've said "That's it, Batter up!" with the one punch from her fist of fury or replace the fist with the mallet
I feel like this game is in an odd kind of situational limbo. Max was right when he observed that since it's based off of kids' cartoons, the developers were obviously going to avoid getting too violent (plus Nick probably had pretty tight control over what they could and couldn't do). At the same time, however, most of the characters in the game are from shows that aired from the late 80s to 2000s, and the people who watched those shows are now in their 30s or 40s, and hardly need their precious little eyes shielded from seeing Garfield punching Danny Phantom in the face.
So they're trying to appeal to younger kids who won't recognize most of the cast, while also trying to appeal to Millennials who will be annoyed by the watered-down content.
Speaking of Garfield
I still hope that they add in Snoopy From Peanuts as a guest fighter (Since Nickelodeon did air some of the Peanuts Animated Specials)

The thing about PSABR's supers is that when you do the level 3 it actually lets the characters shine. NASB 2 feels too afraid to go any further than they already have.
Think Azula’s should have been when she shoots lightning at Aang’s back with the black and white effect.
Hard to think of one for Aang and Korra. I guess Aang’s Boulder compression bullets would have been cool. Maybe Korra could’ve done something when she’s flying in the Avatar State against Zaheer with the chain.
Personally, I think they had the right idea for Aang's finisher to be the attack that he almost used. The pacing's just all off.

Iirc it's a nod to her debut episode minus her hypnotizing students to attack Mr. Lancer
.... actually now that I think about it, the super would be better if she actually hypnotized random students to attack the opponent and trample them.
Even though it'd be oofers on the animation bill
This game looks like it had the budget of $50 and a stick of gum
True, at least it's better than the first one, with its $5 and its stick of...well, just a stick
Aside from the sound being messed up I think the characters look weird when they don't react to the supers. They stand in their fighting pose while they're getting hit by the genki dama or the trains. They should at least look dizzy, surprised, or cower in fear.
I forgive them for that, but mostly because that would require a ton of extra animation work. You can't just throw a generic "afraid" animation on everyone because the cast is so wildly differently proportioned from one another. A lot of supers would require a unique animation just for the super. Still, a lot of the animations do suffer from a lack of reaction from the target, the biggest offender being Rocco's.

@@kevingriffith6011 From the Reptar super, it looked like they had the opponent running away from him, so they *can* stretch at least a little bit.
Easy Garfield super: He's sleeping, gets a wiff of lasagna, crashes through the enemies sending them flying in all directions as he rushes towards it, ending with a shot of him eating it happily.
Instead of.... fantasy pastries do a flying kick
My main issue is the way it just... The way it cuts back is too sudden. For a cutscene super it should cut back with them already flying
My big problem with Nick all stars 2 is that there isn’t much impact with all of the super moves. It needs that oomph
Yeah that last hit needs to have some serious impact.
One thing that bothers me is the unnatural transition back from the supers. I think many of these would look a lot better if the cinematic ended at the exact moment the target character gets hit.
I don't really use the super moves anyway. Using my slime meter for ex-moves and cancels for cool combos feels more effective anyway.
Needs good sound design for that. And this game has some of the worst sound design of any game I've seen in the past decade.
They all do the same 40% of damage. Unlike Smash Bros.
3:39 I feel like that could of been cooler, like having the ghosts from the prison beat him up a bit.
Legitimately, just have one big ghost deliver a haymaker to launch them out of ghost prison would do wonders for the... jankiness of it. Like, you've locked them in a ghost prison, but because this is a platform fighter the super has to send them flying regardless of if it makes sense from the visual of the super.
Yeah, alongside a spit out animation as if the thermo is overloading for all the beating yer getting and ends up shooting you away
Because you just being trapped inside there and then suddenly appearing flying off looks weird as heck
Exactly!
@@kevingriffith6011 Walker with his book open and closes it and cuts back to gameplay and the character is launched
So many of these involve the target just standing completely still, expressing zero emotion, then getting hit by something. It makes some of them hilarious, like Jimmy getting blindsided by the train, but most of them just feel empty.
Norbert's should've been "I'm gonna bop you into last week!"
It fits like a glove
YOU ASKED FOR IT...
I think April should've gotten a Turtle Van super to reference that one shot from the intro (after running over everyone), giving that to one of the TMNT when the other one just uses his weapon skills and April has a Spirit Bomb feels pretty fuckin' random.

Ren's is like... in an entirely different game than the rest.
Max is like a supportive dad in this video
Fun little note about the supers, specially Aang's, in the spotlight trailer videos for the characters you can actually see a lot of the missing vfx. It's rather odd that the polish in those character trailers isn't present here on full release, but it at least gives me hope that they can work those rough spots out faster and reliably.
There was a day 1 patch that was supposed to be rolled out but it got delayed, I’m assuming that patch was intended to add that all in.
8:34 I think that I'd give it an 8/10 if instead of one flying kick they had these weird food homonculi just stomping all over the enemy while they're down. At least it'd be funnier.
Another complaint about the supers that weren't mentioned is that all of them do base 40% damage. It feels like some of them should do a bit more or a bit less damage than that for the sake of variety, as well as some of them looking like they could be a potential IK at 100% like what Ultimate did.
I feel like a few of these would be more fun to see if done on all 3 opponents as opposed to just one
I'm so glad El Tigre made it in this game I love that show and April's Spirit Bomb caught me off guard the first time I saw it and I love it lol
She LOOKS like a fighting game character to just from design
El Tigre's inclusion is an absolute "LET'S FUCKING GO" moment
This game really does have those childhood cartoon game vibes
if by that you mean the vibe of licensed GameCube shovelware
Because your not wrong
@@GuitarSlayer136 stinks that the game is still so held back by its presentation. It’s a massive step up from the original game and fixed nearly every complaint people had with 1, but the budget and rushed development is still glaring in a lot of areas. At least it managed to avoid the classic fighting game sin of ‘no single player content’ this time around.
I think one of the big lessons to learn from these is that not every super has to be a huge Cinematic. Jenny could have a big beam like Samus, Danny could get a big vacuum attack like Luigi, and Granny could've summoned an actual train on stage to run suckers over
And they all would've had more oomph to them because of it
5:44 the way jimmy just fucking stands there accepting his fate

Definitely the problem is pacing in the supers. It doesn't feel like some of these have any impact and it's not helped by the pacing and audio.
I hope they get Leo and Mikey back in the game. TmnTdoesn't feel complete without them
I know, I hate that they had them both in the last game but not in this one. Seems like something that would be easy to just port over, but for some reason they decided not to. Maybe they had a roster limit and wanted to focus on adding more new characters.
@@LooneyTunesBackInActionWasGood Port over? This game is not just a sligthly upgraded version of the first NASB. They build everything from the ground up, that includes all playable characters.
In order to bring a character from the first game they had to rethink they entire moveset (even if some characters didn't change much the devs had to consider possible changes). And then they had to re-do every model. And animate Every Single Frame of Every Single Animation. That's A LOT of effort, and they simply did not have the budget or time to do that for EVERY past character and still add so much more.
Like, they could have reworked all veterans from the first game, but in that case we may not have gotten any newcomers. Or different modes.
We can hope that Leo and Mikey appear as DLC in 2025 or in NASB 3. But for both cases the devs need more money and time.
They have their models done already, but they are just mocking us at this point
@@unskilledgamer3642Yeah, but I think it feels weird because April came back, instead of someone like Splinter or Casey. I just wonder on why April chosen to return over Leo and Micky
To be fair these are the original cartoon versions which I personally think are the worst ones to include either way in terms of cool factor
I feel like for the most of them there's comedic/impact timing on the beats of the supers. Ren & Stimpy definitely have it, letting the explosions and expressions linger a little bit, almost like in slow mo
They are so, so close to nailing this idea. I love how relatively (relatively!) brutal some of these are for a Nick game, too. Ren and Rocko have my favorites, which warms the cockles of my aging heart.
imo the only "bad" one was Jenny's 😔 i wish she got proton cannon
Could have even gone with the giant tennis racket and launched them into space
I remember someone suggesting that she should’ve had all of her siblings come out for one big massive attack like Mega Man’s Final Smash
She could have even launched you to another planet on a rocket. She’s got so much potential for cool super moves but I gusss they just didn’t have it in the budget?
Jenny's super was terrible
Jenny has like even the movies to pick from for big attacks shes done, that and all the benders have actual good moves that couldve been pulled, but i guess making those fast enough for a super wouldve made them all look weird.
They all lack cinematic flair, but fair enough its a low budget game, cant be too mad at it.
Definitely going to check this out, looks very fun and interesting. Love the videos by the way Max!!
To contextualize how wonky some of these are imagine Captain Falcon's Final Smash with every player in their idol animation just standing there waiting to get run over by him.
The fact that all of these were cinematic actually harms some of them, since that pause and unpause of the action is jarring, and some supers are just better when they maintain the regular flow of combat. Lucy’s and Azula’s come to mind there.
As a Nickelodeon fan, the references to the shows are so cool
I feel like Azula's blue fire super would work the best if it was referencing the full psychotic breakdown where shes just screaming in blind rage and breathing fire.
7:43 the no sound at the moment it hit for some reason made me burst laughing, my humor is so messed up
I would love to see a rate the super for PSASBR. One of my favorite fighting games of all time honestly and I really wish Sony had given the team another shot.

9:12 I feel like she has soming better. Wasnt there some multi-beam attack she used in the show on a metor in space? could of used that
The funny thing is that El Tigre's super didn't have to be a Ragnorok/Ultimate Spider. It could've more closely resembled Ganondorf's Final Smash and still be faithful to the source material.
Still, the benders were done dirty. Jenny especially feels like she was toned down compared to what she could really do in her own show.
Most of these are like 1 or 2 steps away from being good. They feel like they end early too. I see this the most with Danny Phantom, Garfield, and the benders.
It's really cool that they added Supers and some do need to be fixed. Ren and Stimpy's Super is just Amazing, it is a Great reference from the Show. Reptar, Gerald, Zim, SpongeBob and April's Super Attacks are really Cool as well. Since Mr Krabs is confirmed as DLC, his Super should be a reference to the Episode "Clams" where his opponents are tied up as bait and calls the Clam to eat them.
"What happened to all of the benders?"
They got bent Max.
I'm actually excited to see Max do Rate the Supers for PlayStation All Stars
Being a rockos modern life fan the reference from the intro of the show with the giant hand flicking rocko into the real world was pretty cool
knowing Max's chat, people were definitely spamming "maximum tiger" as soon as Max said El Tigre's super was like Ragnarok/Maximum Spider lol
Azula not using lightning in her ultimate seems weird also to me I feel Korra ultimate is better than Aang ultimate because she use the elements like the Avatar and Aang kind of just waves his hand slightly
These feel EXTREMELY "censor board said no".
That's why so many people get hit by cars/trains/elephant ass. It must have been the most most violent thing they were allowed to depict!
Like Jenny may normally be fine slicing up her enemies, but since this game makes the enemy other Nick characters with picky IP holders they have to just vaguely imply she's slapchoping them. That's why the tiger kid can Ragnarok: they're just cartoon cat claws. Raphael similar, they're so small and NOT-knife looking that they don't make it look like he's actually shanking Squidward.
The greatest issue is clearly the sound ):
Budget or not, the sound design in many of these is simply off or lacking. The ideas are almost all super cool and I love when they animate the models to do more of that source animation stuff, but the sound does hold all of them back. Big improvement, but still some stuff to be ironed out!
Isn't Azula's power move lightning? I'm surprised she didn't strike you with a massive lightning bolt with her super.
Lighting is her down special in the game so I guesss they were trying to avoid using it twice for some reason.
@@tropicturtle9021 true but still it wouldve made more sense since lightning was a huge deal.

In my opinion, most of the supermoves needs work or some change cuz they dont look or feel effective and they're too plain.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they put supermoves in this game but i do wish they give spongebob the goofy goober rock as his supermove
Thank you for another Rate the Super video!
I think a couple of them would be saved by adding a few lines of dialog during the buildup. Aang and Korra's especially.
I don't like some of the supers like I think Garfield's should've been him mailing them to Abu Dhabi, him kicking them like what he does with Odie, or a giant pie showing up. Azula should've been her shooting lightning like in Book 2's or Book 3's finale. Jenny's should've been either the laser from the first episode, having her sisters show up, or something from the opening. I think Danny's should've been the Ghostly Wail or the Ecto-Skeleton.
Hell, Garfield's super could have easily been "TOO MUCH RICE!", with him just watching casually as Jon and all of his opponents are swept away in a tidal wave of rice.
7:01 and 11:00 really do show off the difference good cinematography can make. They're very similar supers conceptually, a big energy tornado-y thing, but because the first of the two was just so much more well shot we give it an 8/10, while the second is just much more boring to look at.
Personally, I think they're both shot beautifully, even more so the second one. But the sound design is just not there for Korra.
a Rate the Supers of PSA would be sick. Did you know that Dart from Legend of Dragoon was planned DLC but didn't make it in. You can find images of the model online tho
Max's face on Ren and Stimpy's super was priceless hahahaha
My only gripe with the game is that I wish they kept the roster from the original game and added all the new characters on top of it
Why did they do Danny and ember dirty like that lmao
A lot of these would be a lot more impactful if the sound were better matching for them. All these big hits coming in hard, but with the quietest noises possible lol
I'm shocked they dont have hit effect with a zoom in like in Smash Ultimate on really strong attacks, it really brings the impact down!
(them being unfinished also doesn't help)
That spirit bomb couldn´t get the right sounds because Toei wouldn´t let them.
I was shocked to see Ember in, but I'm really disappointed in that super. You'd think her strongest move would be sending a stampede of fans to trample you.
Would love to see a Rate the Super on PlayStation All-Stars, especially as they all have three tiers and aren’t just instant kill buttons!
April just dropping the Spirit Bomb on you had me in tears.
The fact that Garfield did not transform into some eldritch horror for his super is a missed opportunity.

Now that you mention it, I wouldn't be TOO surprised if the dev team pulled that stunt. They could maybe play it off as a reference to that one scene of that one episode of The Garfield Show where Garfield meets an AU version of himself who randomly turns into a big monster - though, they seem more fond of pulling from Garfield and Friends..

Man, really feels like some sound effects are missing. I mean, that's easy enough thing to patch in, but would help a lot. I'd like to be interested in this game, but I've got no connection to 80% of this roster. I've seen a random clip on TV back in the day, but all I really know from here is Avatar and TMNT (which wasn't even Nick's when it was airing). If this was Cartoon Network, that'd be different.
