Battle for Bikini Bottom has to be the most-wanted
THQ Nordic has been steadily reviving games from the expansive THQ catalog, from De Blob to Titan Quest to Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy. Today, the company announced a bunch of old licensed titles based on Nickelodeon properties. I can already see the SpongeBob memes.
Here’s what’s on the docket, generally speaking:
- Avatar: The Last Airbender
- Back At The Barnyard
- Catscratch
- Danny Phantom
- El Tigre
- Invader Zim
- Jimmy Neutron
- My Life As A Teenage Robot
- Rocket Power
- Rocko’s Modern Life
- Rugrats
- SpongeBob SquarePants
- Tak and the Power of Juju
- The Fairly OddParents (US only)
- The Ren & Stimpy Show
- The Wild Thornberrys
“It is a perfect fit for our ‘asset care’ strategy: bringing back fan-favorites, continuing to support legacy games and make them available on current and even next-gen platforms,” said Adrienne Lauer, Vice President of Digital Sales & Business Development Americas.
Some of these shows spawned a ton of different titles, so it’ll be interesting to see what exactly THQ Nordic chooses to focus on. I don’t have any particular nostalgia for these games, but even with the less-than-great adaptations, it’s nice to see them preserved on modern platforms.
“On-shelf availability will be announced in the coming months,” according to THQ Nordic.
