Games To Play If You Like Super Smash Bros.

Nickelodeon: All-Stars Brawl is an exciting mashup of Super Smash Bros. adjacent gameplay fused with the charm and fun of Nickelodeon cartoons. This upcoming game looks to provide thrilling, beat 'em up fights, wacky stages, a plethora of beloved Nickelodeon characters, and much more for eager players to dive into.


If fans want a taste of Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl early , they don't need to look any further than Ludosity's previous fighting game. Slap City is a charming platform fighter built with characters from Ludosity's past games, including Ittle Dew , Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt , and Iji . The game goes out of it's way to make all nine characters play very differently, and there are a ton of stages to play with. The game is known for its "Clutch" button, which modifies attacks when held. It also has a story mode with a very heavy emphasis on platforming. Slap City 's quality and attention to detail inspires a lot of hope for Ludosity's work on All-Star Bra

Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy’s arch-nemesis definitely deserve a spot on the roster. It has already been confirmed that Ren and Stimpy’s Powdered Toast Man is in the game, so seeing another superhero-style fighter would be brilliant.


A game this successful is bound to attract similar projects, and there have been so many that "platform fighter" is now considered a genre unto itself. A staggering number of Smash clones have been made by both fans and competitors, though dismissing them as mere clones does many a disservice. Those looking for variety in the Smash genre are in for a treat, as the age of the platform fighter is already in full swing. The upcoming Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl Stars updates 2024 looks quite promising, but there are plenty of other games players can pick up right now to get them ready for when that game dr


Those looking for another high quality platform fighter can look no further than Rivals of Aether . This 2D fighter features animal champions from four elemental factions (along with Ori and Shovel Knight guest characters), and again sports a roster full of diverse characters and playstyles. This title has interesting modes like the randomized challenges in Abyss Mode, the more casual Tetherball minigame, and Abyss Versus, which will let players take their custom builds into battle with frie


Staying on the topic of sprite-based Smash clones, Super Smash Flash 2 is probably the highest quality Smash fan-game out there. Super Smash Bros. Crusade comes close, but nothing can beat Flash 2 . This game impresses greatly with its beautiful sprite recreations of most of Smash 's cast, as well as a few newcomers like Sora and Goku that probably won't make it to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate 's ros


It's gameplay can be enjoyed online via official servers, and more updates will continue to slowly come out as its developer also works on Fraymakers , an indie crossover fighting game that recently had a successful crowdfunding campaign. That original game will feature Ultra Fishbunjin 3000 from Slap City and Orcane from Rivals of Aether , so fans of those games should keep an eye on it as w


Donnie can move around the stage with a recklessness that can go unmatched thanks to his animalistic upbringing. He can jump around or maybe even swing around on vines for some of his attacks, or call on some animals to assist him with some wild attacks

At this point, their entire marketing campaign for the game is based around the similarities to the Smash franchise anyway, so maybe they should just double down on it and include Nickelodeon off-brand Smash Bros reference characters in their already-quite-large roster.


While Power Stone 2 is technically an arena fighter, there's no arguing that it's the arena fighter closest to Super Smash Bros . Power Stone 2 upgrades its player count from two to four, and focuses even more on items and environmental interaction than the first game did. The result is a chaotic brawl Stars events across multiple surprisingly dynamic stages that are up there with the best Super Smash Bros. has to offer. This series is harder to come by these days, having only been released on Dreamcast , PSP, and in arcades, but emulation should provide a good way to experience this often-forgotten Capcom clas

If the developers don’t want to spend a slot on an individual KaBlam character, they could just include the hosts of the show instead. Henry and June were the animated hosts of KaBlam, showing up in between segments with their own bits and gags. They introduced every short and closed the show out with a short segment themselves.


Understandably, some fans may find it strange to have an actual baby as a fighter, but Tommy is an animated character, so that shouldn't stop him. He can use a bottle or his trusty screwdriver as his weapons, or call in the Reptar Wagon to charge in and knock his enemies off the st

Lastly, Pat here's Tweet about the lobby system of All-Stars Brawl is another in-joke for fighting game fans. Of course, even a casual fighting game player could piece this joke together, but the audience who has played games made by Arc System Works like Dragon Ball FigherZ or Guilty Gear Strive with weird lobby systems will understand this joke on a deeper level.
