Nicktoons Unite! is a video game featuring Danny Phantom (the titular character from the TV series) , SpongeBob SquarePants (the titular character from the TV series) , Timmy Turner (from The Fairly OddParents), and Jimmy Neutron (from The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius) along with their perspective arch-enemies like Vlad Plasmius, Sheldon J. Plankton, Denzel Q. Crocker, and Professor Finbarr Calamitous. The gameplay of the console versions is quite similar to X-Men Legends albeit more simplistic (Obiviously due to the fact that it was geared towards a younger audience) and with a larger emphasis on puzzles.

[edit] Story
When Professor Calamitous steals Jimmy Neutron's plans for the 'Universe Portal Machine', the evil genius constructs his own version of the device to recruit an inter-dimensional band of baddies made up of Vlad Plasmius, Plankton, and Denzel Crocker. Collectively known as the Evil Syndicate, this fearsome-foursome combine their dastardly powers to create the diabolical Doomsday Device while unleashing an army of evil on the unsuspecting worlds of Dimmsdale, Bikini Bottom, Amity Park, and Retroville
Brain-blasting a plan to save the day, Jimmy uses his 'Universe Portal Machine' to scour the multiverse for a little help of his own, drafting no other then Danny Phantom, Timmy Turner, and SpongeBob SquarePants. Only by working together as a team can they defeat the villainous Syndicate and destroy the dangerous Doomsday Device once and for all!
[edit] Characters
The smartest kid in Retroville, Jimmy Neutron's a certified super genius.
He has the Tornado Blaster, Shrink Ray, Neutron Flare, and Quarterback Gear.
Danny Fenton may look like an ordinary teenager, but when duty calls he slips into action as Danny Phantom, an extraordinary spectral superhero with a ghostly host of other-worldy powers.
He packs a good Ghost Punch, and can use his ghostly powers to Over Shadow and Phase Shift. Don't forget his Ghostly Wail!
His Fairy God Parents, Cosmo and Wanda, grant his every wish... as long as they're within 'Da Rules'. His wishes don't always work out as planned, but he always manages to set things straight in the end.
He has his green STAR FLINGER, which is Cosmo, and the pink unlimited bacpack ammo is Wanda. He can turn into an Eskimo with ice powers, and Cleft the Boy Chin wonder! He also can use Cosmo and Wanda to heal his friends.
He has his karate foam gloves, his water soaking ability, and his DoodleBob airplane, which lures enemies. Also, he can create Bubble Bombs, which explode on contact!
[edit] Gameplay
You can play by yourself with three computers, or with a friend or two with the remaining computer(s). You can switch abilities, which have multiple uses. For example, if four people are playing, let's say there is a path full of enemies and you have to get to the other side. You would just use Danny's ghostly wail, Spongebob's bubble bombs, Jimmy's Quartback gear, and Timmy's healing melody.
If you are playing by yourself, it will be easier, shorter, more boring, but if you are with others, it will be harder, longer, more interesting. If there is at least one computer, you can use a certain button to Regroup with your computerized team member(s).
There are also things you need a certain character in order to do. Like, SpongeBob needs to blow up a pillar, Danny needs to Ghostly Wail on some glass, Timmy needs to freeze some water, or Jimmy has to shoot down some things with his flare gun.
At one point of the game, you have to cross over a hole with Danny, he can hover when in Phase Shift, and then have SpongeBob toss over a Bubble Bomb. You then have to have Danny pick it up, and throw it at a crack in the wall to find a lever. Harder done then said when doing it alone.
[edit] Trivia
- In this game SpongeBob is only a bit shorter than Jimmy and Timmy but in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, the Cyclops (who really was a scuba diver) and David Hasslehoff were like giants to SpongeBob. But there are several scale problems within the universe of SpongeBob, which are just left to supension of belief.
- The console version of the game is the second non-cel-shaded Fairly OddParents game. (The first one was Toon Twister 3-D)
- The game's European title is SpongeBob and Friends: Unite!
- The game was supposed to be on Xbox, but that version was cancelled. [citation needed]
- There is a sequel called Nicktoons: Battle for Volcano Island. In it, Danny, Spongebob, and Timmy, along with other allies from their own shows, battle for control of a tropical island. Jimmy appears in this game, but he isn't playable.[1].
