The longstanding popularity of the Super Smash Bros. series has produced numerous copycat games which sought to emulate Nintendo's success. Some have certainly been more successful than others, but there's now a new contender that has the potential to provide a truly unique fighting game experience. Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is taking some classic characters from Nickelodeon's long history and pitting them against one another in a colorful and crazy fighting game that already looks like a promi...

As it stands, there's still a lot that we don't know about Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl . The game will reportedly have 20 stages, yet only a couple of them have actually been named by the developers. It's set to launch this fall, but the specific release date has yet to be announced. And it's also unclear if it will have crossplay or any other modern online multiplayer conveniences.

Originally conceived as a Kickstarter reward for another upcoming game starring the duo, _Jay and Silent Bob: Mall Brawl _ is a mostly paint-by-numbers retro beat 'em up with interesting boss fights and a few surprises scattered throughout its levels. Developer Interabang Entertainment captures the nostalgia of the era well, but manages to also incorporate some of its shortcomings, resulting in a fairly forgettable experience outside of the source material's influence on the ti There's plenty of...

Like its less-than-stellar cousin the All Stars Brawl Pad , the Brawl Stick is fully featured. This stick is wired and the cable is four meters long, so you should be able to sit as far from the console as you need to. In addition to being built strongly, the metal base helps it stay firmly seated on your lap, but a table is even better. An advanced turbo function allows you to program all eight of the action buttons. The control area features eight small lights that indicate whether or not you’...

Avatar: The Last Airbender is my favourite series of all time - I watched the whole 61-episode run three times during the pandemic and have an enormous tattoo based on The Tale of Iroh lining the inside of my right bicep. I’m admittedly a little less into The Legend of Korra , but it’s still probably in my top ten TV shows. This is a universe I’ve devoted hundreds of hours to, and I’ll be damned if Nick is bringing out a Smash -esque brawler that forgets about some of the best characters in anim...

While Brawl Chess is more streamlined than a standard game of chess, and therefore more user friendly, it is a little frustrating to not be able to perform some more advanced strategic chess moves in-game. For example, if the player manages to get one of their pawns to the other side of the board it is automatically promoted to a Queen. While a player would most likely make this choice anyway, there are situations where it is more advantageous to promote to a Knight instead. This is a minor issu...
