Changes: Nicktoons Freeze Frame Frenzy

Latest revision as of 00:15, 10 June 2023

Video game

Nicktoons Freeze Frame Frenzy (known as SpongeBob SquarePants and Friends in Freeze Frame Frenzy in the UK) is a Nicktoons crossover game for the Game Boy Advance.

Story

Jimmy Neutron has discovered that a lot of Nicktoon characters have been misplaced in different worlds. So he sends his friends to help send them back with a special camera he made. After all the characters are put back into the right place, Jimmy discovers that Zim is behind it. So he goes to confront him.

After beating Zim, all the Nicktoons have a cookout. After the credits roll, Zim tells GIR that it's time for his new plan.

Gameplay

The player would first choose a world to play in (the world being one of the Nicktoons). Then they would choose a Nicktoon to play as; however, they cannot choose to play as the Nicktoon native to the chosen world. Then they would walk through the level while doing the following:

Taking pictures of out of place objects.
Avoiding obstacles.
Completing tasks that Jimmy gave you before the level.

If the player were to take a picture of an out of place thing or complete a task, they would earn points. If the player were to earn enough points by the end of the level, they would advance to the next. At the end of each world, the player would face a boss. The boss would be a robotic version of a Nicktoon character. To beat the boss, the player would have to take pictures of it enough times. Also, the player would have a scrapbook to keep track of what he/she has taken a picture of.

Trivia

General

Nicktoons Snap Shot, an unreleased game developed by Warthog Games' Zed Two and planned to release during Q3 or Q4 2004 for the PlayStation 2, shares a few similarities with this game suggesting that Nicktoons Snap Shot may have been a planned console version for this game.
This game has backwards compatibility because it can be played on all DS and DS Lite units.
At some point in 2005 this video game and Battle for Bikini Bottom were released in a bundle called the Double Pack Volume 3.
- Also, at some point in 2005 this video game and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie video game were released in a bundle called the Double Pack Volume 2 in the UK.
  - On March 16, 2007, this video game, SuperSponge and two other Nickelodeon video games were released in a bundle called Nickelodeon 4 Games On One Game Pak.
Arnold is one of the playable characters that does not appear in the introduction.

Errors

On the FOP version, where Timmy's clothing is more red than pink.
When the gruff voice says, "Report your progress to me at once, faithful robotic impostor minion!," the game misspells "impostor" as "imposter."

Episode references

Similar to the episode "The Paper," the paper pops in and out of SpongeBob's head throughout the game.
Bubble Bass from "Pickles" is in the Krusty Krab.
SpongeBob and Patrick are working on the Flying Dutchman's ship like in "Shanghaied."
Squidward is frequently trying to eat a Krabby Patty like in "Just One Bite." Also, a fish throws away a half-eaten Patty, from in the same episode.
The fish oddly sucking on his Patty, the fish with the fake head, and the Robot Krabs from "Imitation Krabs" are seen.
Patrick is seen with the magic pencil drawing Timmy Turner, Arnold Shortman, Otto Rocket, and SpongeBob SquarePants referencing "Frankendoodle."
SpongeBob falls out of a tree and into the mud like in "Gary Takes a Bath."
SpongeBob swells up with water in his bathtub, shown in the theme song.
Sandy is attacked by a giant clam like in "Tea at the Treedome."

-*This game have backwards compatibility.
-**This game can be played on all DS and DS Lite units.
-*Arnold is one of the playable characters, although he does not appear in the introduction.
-*This game was released two years after the premiere of "[[New Student Starfish]]" and "[[Clams]]."
-*Despite being able to canonically fit in the ''[[Nicktoons Unite!]]'' series, ''Freeze Frame Frenzy'' is not officially considered an installment of the specific series since it was made before ''Unite!'' made its debut and has no console counterpart.
-===Timeline===
+==Trivia==
+===General===
-====Based on its prequel (''Nicktoons Unite!'')====
+*''[[Nicktoons Snap Shot]]'', an unreleased game developed by {{W|Warthog Games}}' [[w:c:future-tactics-the-uprising:Zed Two|Zed Two]] and planned to release during  {{W|Q3}} or {{W|Q4}} {{Time|2004}} for the {{W|PlayStation 2}}, shares a few similarities with this game suggesting that ''Nicktoons Snap Shot'' may have been a planned console version for this game.
-*This takes place after the episode "[[Band Geeks]]," as evidenced by the fact that Mr. Krabs, SpongeBob, Sandy, Plankton, and Patrick had never seen a human before this episode, as referenced when Patrick said "These are some ugly looking fish." and SpongeBob saying "Maybe we're in one of those toxic waste dumps."
+*This game has backwards compatibility because it can be played on all DS and DS Lite units.
-*This takes place after the Jimmy Neutron and Fairly OddParents crossover, ''Jimmy Timmy Power Hour''. As referenced by Jimmy and Timmy's knowledge of each other. As well as Jimmy's knowledge of Cosmo and Wanda. Also, Jimmy refers to Fairy World magic as "the power source from the game." Cindy also met Timmy in that episode, which is referenced at the end of the game.
+*At some point in {{Time|2005}} this video game and ''[[Battle for Bikini Bottom]]'' were released in a bundle called the ''Double Pack Volume 3''.
-**It might also take place after ''Jimmy Timmy Power Hour 2: When Nerds Collide!'' because in that episode Mr. Crocker and Professor Calamitous had no interaction with each other after Professor Calamitous hit the "Welcome to Dimmsdale" sign when Mr. Crocker was putting up his birthday sign. More evidence is that in that episode Calamitous, fused with Jorgen's body, used Jorgen's wand to make things change in Retroville. However, in this game, Wanda says that they can only change things to their universe. It is possible that Calamitous' actions led to adding that rule.
+**Also, at some point in {{Time|2005}} this video game and [[The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (video game)|''The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie'' video game]] were released in a bundle called the ''Double Pack Volume 2'' in the UK.
-*This takes place after Jimmy Neutron's ''Professor Calamitous, I Presume'', and Danny Phantom's ''Bitter Reunions''. As these were the two episodes that Jimmy met Calamitous and Danny met Vlad.
+***On {{Time|March 16}}, {{Time|2007}}, this video game, ''[[SuperSponge]]'' and two other Nickelodeon video games were released in a bundle called ''[[Nickelodeon 4 Games On One Game Pak]]''.
-*This takes place after "[[Help Wanted]]" because SpongeBob knows Mr. Krabs.
+*Arnold is one of the playable characters that does not appear in the introduction.
-*This takes place after "[[Tea at the Treedome]]" because SpongeBob knows Sandy.
-*This takes place after "[[Scaredy Pants]]" because SpongeBob knows the Flying Dutchman.
-**This also most likely takes place after "[[Shanghaied]]" because it seems like the Flying Dutchman knows him more and is also afraid of him and SpongeBob seems familiar with the Dutchman's ship.
-*This takes place after the Fairly OddParents' ''That Old Black Magic'' because Timmy has been to Fairy World.
-*This takes place after Fairly OddParents' Inspection Detection because Timmy knows Jorgen.
-*This takes place after the Oh Yeah Cartoons! short/Fairly OddParents' pilot, ''The Fairly OddParents!'' because Timmy knows Cosmo and Wanda.
-*This takes place before or after Fairly OddParents' ''Abra-Catastrophe! ''because the exterior of Crocker's fortress looks similar to his fortress in that episode.
-*This takes place after Danny Phantom's ''One of a Kind'' because that is the episode where Danny met the Box Ghost and Skulker. (Skulker appeared in the episode below.)
-*This takes place after Danny Phantom's ''Prisoners of Love ''because that is the episode where Danny met Walker. He has also been to the Ghost Zone Prison before in that episode.
-**Because of that episode, this game is also after the episode ''Mystery Meat'' because that is the episode Danny met The Lunch Lady Ghost and she was in ''Prisoners of Love''. Same with the episodes ''What you Want'', ''Attack of the Killer Garage Sale'', and ''Parental Bonding'' with the characters Desiree, Technus, and Princess Dorathea.
-*This takes place after "[[Frankendoodle]]" because that is the episode where SpongeBob met DoodleBob, which is used as an attack in the game.
-**Because of this, the game also takes place after "[[Bubblestand]]."
-*This takes place before both ''Fairly Odd Baby'' and ''Fairly OddPet'' because both Poof and Sparky are not around with Timmy.
-*This game takes place after "[[Plankton!]]" because SpongeBob knows Karen.
-*This game takes place after ''[[The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water]]'' because SpongeBob is not surprised when he sees humans and Plankton doesn't know what Teamwork is in that movie and in this game he works with a team.
-**Because of this, the game takes place after "[[Wormy]]," "[[Single Cell Anniversary]]," "[[Life of Crime]]," "[[Krusty Love]]," "[[The Curse of Bikini Bottom]]," "[[Sailor Mouth]]," "[[Enchanted Tiki Dreams]]," and "[[The Thing]]."
-*This game takes place after the Danny Phantom episode, "Memory Blank" because Danny has his logo on his chest which he did not obtain until that episode.
-====Based off this game====
-*This game takes place after ''[[Nicktoons Unite!]]'' because in this game, he knows SpongeBob and Danny Phantom, who he meets in that game.
-*This game takes place before ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants featuring Nicktoons: Globs of Doom]]'' because Jimmy meets Zim in this game.
-*In real life, this game takes place between the American release dates of "[[Krabby Land]]"/"[[The Camping Episode]]" and "[[SpongeBob Meets the Strangler]]"/"[[Pranks a Lot]]."
