Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 Patrick Star

Continuing on with the character spotlights for Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2, we now have a video for Patrick Star from SpongeBob.

Patrick, a traditional grappler, is slow, heavy, and has limited range. However, he makes up for those weaknesses with some of the most powerful throws and strong attacks in the game. Keep in mind that his recovery is a bit lackluster. Ultimately, those using Patrick will need to be play slow and carefully, and for those not interested in worrying about combos.

Genshin Impact developers Zelda Breath of the Wild

Genshin Impact is one of the most popular games around these days, but early on, one could argue that it struggled to find its identity with many comparing it to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The initial harsh reception seemed to have done a number on the development team.

During the Genshin Impact FES event, miHoYo president Lie Wei spoke about what it was like at the company when a video of the closed beta was released. Many didn’t really seem to understand what the title was going for, and again, the Zelda comparisons came about very often. Things were probably at the absolute worst at ChinaJoy in 2019 in which some fans protested and someone went as far as to smash their PS4 during the event.

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 Jimmy Neutron

For the next Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 spotlight trailer, we have a look at Jimmy Neutron. He’s a brand new addition for the sequel.

One of Jimmy’s hooks is the use of Goddard. The robot companion can be summoned and then controlled, though Jimmy is vulnerable while that’s going on. Goddard will also be destroyed after taking a bit of damage, but it can shoot lasers, chomp opponents, and be dropped on an enemy’s head.
