Super Smash Bros. Ultimate players have been anxiously awaiting the release of Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl.
The Melee-inspired game features a colorful cast of Nickelodeon characters from the '90s right up until today. But the real reason Smash fans are excited for the October 5 release is that the developers - Ludosity and Fair Play Labs - actually care about the competitive scene. And the game is about to get its first test.
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is coming to Mainstage. Mainstage is Beyond the Summit's Smash Major. For three days, competitors will compete to secure one of the six qualifier spots for Smash Summit 12 in December as well as Ultimate Summit 4 in March. Attendees will also have the chance to compete in the first-ever announced Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl tournament.
🟠 It's time... for the slime 🟢
Nickelodeon All Star Brawl is coming to #Mainstage 2021 🤯
Singles will be capped at 256, so be sure to register NOW!
The Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl will be a singles tournament with up to 256 competitors. According to a followup tweet from BTS, the tournament will be using the Nintendo Switch version of the game. Registration is currently open at http://bts.gg/mainstage.
The event will be a great opportunity to see high-level competition, learning new metas, tricks, and exploits from fighting game pros.
The biggest reason Smash fans are excited to see Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl at Mainstage is due to Nintendo's lack of support for eSports. With terrible online play, a disdain for fan-made mods of older titles, and no prize money or tournament organizing, Nintendo clearly has no interest in the competitive scene.
Meanwhile, Ludosity has been very open about their passion for competitive fighting games beyond including wavedash. This has made many dub Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl as the "Smash killer." With better online support and the promise of more competitive support, it's possible that the game may replace Smash at big events like EVO in the near future. Of course, this is all speculation. For now, the game will have its first official competitive showing at Mainstage, bringing Smash fans together for a fun showcase.
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is released Oct. 5 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X!
Introducing Amazon Glow—A Whole New Way to Bring Families Together for Fun and Learning
Kids can read stories, play games, create art, and have fun blending physical and digital worlds with Glow’s interactive projected space—remote loved ones engage simultaneously on their own tablet using a free, companion app
Glow combines immersive projection, sensing, and video technologies to make it feel like you’re having fun in-person
Glow comes with 1-year of Amazon Kids+ bringing hundreds of hours of fun, including new games and activities designed specifically for Glow; Includes content from Disney, Mattel, Nickelodeon, and Sesame Workshop
SEATTLE--Sept. 28, 2021--(NASDAQ: AMZN)—Amazon today announced Amazon Glow, a new interactive device that brings a new magic to video calls and transforms the way kids connect with remote loved ones by participating in activities together. During video calls on Glow, kids see remote loved ones on a dedicated 8” display while reading stories, playing games, and creating art on a 19” touch-sensitive, projected space. At the same time, remote family and friends see the child on a tablet and participate in the same activities using the free Glow app. Glow creates a virtual experience that feels like being together in the same room.
“Glow brings an entirely new level of fun that lets kids be kids and welcomes grown-ups into an exciting new way to connect and bond, even when they’re far away,” said Joerg Tewes, General Manager, Amazon Glow. “We’ve created an unbreakable, supersized, projected surface like no other, fusing digital and physical fun that excites kids and delights grown-ups with all they can do together.”
So much fun, together, with Glow
Activities on Glow create engaging, immersive experiences with audio, video, and tactile elements. And, with the included 1-year of Amazon Kids+, Glow provides access to thousands of books and dozens of interactive games and art activities. With Glow, kids can have fun and hone their skills with remote family members and friends, who in return, can share real-time encouragement. New interactive content, including more games, will arrive for Glow later this year. Together kids and remote loved ones can:
Read: Pick from thousands of children’s books to read on the 19” projected virtual space, and delight in engaging with rainbow pointers, spotlights, and word bubbles for added reading excitement
Play: Have fun with classic games like Chess, Checkers, Go Fish, and Memory Match with new creative twists, and new games like ABC Charades and Paddle Battle
Draw: Create art using a palette of colors with digital pencils, crayons, paint brushes, or spray paint on a variety of themed art packs. Add stickers to amp up the creativity and use the vacuum eraser for a fresh start
Discover: Find hidden magic with animations and sounds that will delight kids and grown-ups alike; and unlock levels in games to continuously challenge young minds
These activities on Glow are made even more memorable when beloved characters join in on the fun. Glow brings the magic of Disney to life with friends like Anna and Elsa from Disney’s Frozen, Woody and Buzz from Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story, and more. Fans of Hot Wheels and Barbie will love seeing those characters from Mattel. Kids can have fun with SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer from Nickelodeon. And from Sesame Workshop, Elmo, Zoe, and many more of their friends on Sesame Street are also on Glow.
Glow blends digital and physical worlds to provide even more fun
The best of digital and physical worlds come together on Glow to fuel creativity and develop problem-solving skills for kids.
Object scanning. Childhood dreams of turning everyday objects into digital fun are now a reality with Glow’s object scanning feature. Kids can turn a favorite toy into a custom jigsaw puzzle by smashing the digital scan of the toy into virtual pieces to reassemble. Or, scan a favorite school art project and transform it into a new masterpiece with the help of a remote loved one.
Glow Bits. Kids and families can experience a new way to have fun with physical objects with Glow Bits learning kits. The first Glow Bits learning kit is the Tangram puzzle game, where kids use physical shapes and their remote family member uses digital shapes to solve challenges together. Tangram Bits is bundled with the purchase of Glow, and additional Glow Bits coming soon will be sold separately.
Worry-free virtual fun
Like all Amazon Kids products, Glow is built with parental controls front and center. Kids can only call pre-approved contacts that parents select. With the Amazon Parent Dashboard, parents can see who their kids are contacting. Parents can instantly disable cameras and microphones on the device by simply closing the visible privacy shutter.
“This category-defying product has been created with safety as a priority,” said Stephen Balkam, founder and CEO of the Family Online Safety Institute (FOSI). “By combining an ad-free, walled garden experience within the device and app, Amazon Glow will bring kids, parents, and grandparents together safely in new and highly interactive ways during these unique times.”
Pricing & Availability
Glow is available at an introductory, early access price of $249.99 (MSRP of $299.99), and comes with a mat, a mat case, 1-year of Amazon Kids+, and is bundled with Tangram Bits. Glow also comes with a 2-year worry-free guarantee—if it breaks, return it, and we'll replace it for free. Glow works with a free mobile app on Android and iOS tablets, with Fire OS coming soon, so remote loved ones can connect and interact seamlessly with the kids in their lives, on devices they already own.
Customers can request an invitation to be part of the early access Glow program starting today at www.amazon.com/Glow. Glow will begin shipping to U.S. early access customers in the coming weeks.

Fans can vote as many times as they wish to support their favourites from the worlds of entertainment, music, sports and more!

How to Vote:
There are three ways for fans to vote for their favourites in Nickelodeon's 2021 Meus Prêmios Nick:
To vote via Instagram, visit Nickelodeon Brasil's official Instagram page, https://www.instagram.com/nickelodeonbr, and comment on any post with your nominee's unique hashtag and #MPN, for example, to vote for Club 57 to win the "Programa da Nick Favorito" orange blimp, your comment must include the hashtags #Club57Nick + #MPN.
