2	''Super Brawl'' is a series of {{Fighting Game}}s initially hosted on the Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} website, allowing characters from across the channel's history to battle each other in one-on-one combat.
3
4	The series consists of the following entries:
5	* ''Jingle Brawl'': The [[ChristmasEpisode holiday-themed]] first entry in the series.
6	** ''Super Brawl'': Spun off from ''Jingle Brawl'' into a more normally themed game.
7	** ''Super Brawl Summer'': A summer-themed variant
8	** ''Super Fall Brawl'': An autumn-themed variant.
9	* ''Super Brawl 2'': The full-on second entry in the series, adding many new characters, stages, and modes, including an Endless Brawl and Tag Team mode.
10	* ''Super Brawl 3'': The third entry in the series, featuring a "Good vs. Evil" theming. Departs from the MediumBlending style of the previous installments and introduces a uniform 2D artstyle for every character, as well as an online multiplayer mode. The last entry in the series to be developed in UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash, as the next few entries are built using [=HTML5=].
11	** ''Super Brawl 3: Just Got Real'': A joke spinoff of ''3'' that features goofy "realistic" interpretations of a few characters from the base game.
12	* ''Super Brawl 4'': A {{superhero}} themed entry where each character has a transformed identity that they fight as.
13	* ''Super Brawl World'': A SoftReboot of the series that goes back to a general fighting game theming.
14	* ''Super Brawl Universe'': A mobile game entry that moves from the ''Franchise/StreetFighter''-inspired gameplay of the previous entries and takes more inspiration from ''VideoGame/MarvelContestOfChampions''.
15
16	With the death of Adobe Flash, most of these games have been preserved by fans and can still be played unofficially on Flash tribute sites, aside from ''World'', which is still on the Nick website, and ''Universe'', [[DefunctOnlineVideoGames which has been completely delisted from mobile storefronts]].

115	!!Tropes for these games:
116	* AdaptationalBadass: Certain characters were granted abilities that they didn't have in their source shows, like [=SpongeBob=] being able to throw trademark-friendly [[Franchise/StreetFighter Hadoukens]] or Otis being able to fire lasers from his udders. Some characters like Arnold, Lincoln Loud, and Tommy Pickles are flat-out non-combatants in their series as well.
117	* AdaptationalVillainy: Tahno was simply a {{Jerkass}} pro-bending rival character in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'', but in ''Super Brawl 3'' he's on the "Evil" side of the roster along with legitimately villainous characters like Shredder, Plankton, and Amon, the latter of whom [[spoiler:stole Tahno's bending in the actual series]].
118	* AscendedExtra: Tahno from ''Super Brawl 3'' is the best example of this as he was barely in a few episodes of ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra''.
119	* AssistCharacter: ''Super Brawl 3'' introduces the "Fan Power" mechanic, which allows you to summon a child {{cosplay}}ing as a certain fighter to perform an assist move. ''Super Brawl World'' also has selectable assist characters, though these are actual non-playable Nickelodeon characters.
120	* {{Brainwashed}}: In ''2'', Plankton has a muscular bodybuilder fish fight for him using a mind-controlling helmet.
121	* CharacterAsHimself: Due to the superhero theme of ''4'' all of the characters are listed as "(Character) as (Persona)" In the case of the Red and Pink Rangers as well as Sky Whale however, their superhero personas are labeled "himself"(or herself for the Pink Ranger) since they lack alternate personas.
122	* ChristmasEpisode: ''Jingle Brawl''. Oddly, it's also the ''first'' game in the ''Super Brawl'' series.
123	* DevelopersForesight: Normally in ''2'', when playing as Fanboy or Chum Chum, the one who isn't being used follows the one that is around in combat. If you make them fight each other, however, this isn't the case.
124	* GuestFighter: The games have featured characters from shows that aired on the network but weren't actually owned or produced by Nickelodeon themselves, including the Creator/DreamWorksAnimation [[WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar shows]] [[WesternAnimation/KungFuPandaLegendsOfAwesomeness from the]] [[WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens2013 early 2010s]], the ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' [[Series/PowerRangersSamurai series from]] [[Series/PowerRangersDinoCharge the Neo]] [[Series/PowerRangersNinjaSteel Saban era]], and the VideoGame/RavingRabbids through ''WesternAnimation/RabbidsInvasion''.
125	* KidHero: [[WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents Timmy]], [[WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom Danny]], [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender Aang]], [[WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius Jimmy]], [[Series/HenryDanger Henry]] and some of the other playable characters are juvenile heroes.
126	* MassiveMultiplayerCrossover: The games feature numerous characters from different shows that have aired on the Nickelodeon networks.
127	* MediumBlending: The original subseries and ''2'' had every character appear exactly in the styles of their original show, which meant that the characters from CG shows like ''Jimmy Neutron'', ''Barnyard'', and ''Penguins of Madagascar'' all had their original models to fight the [=2D=] characters with. Every other game went with a unified artstyle for everybody.
128	* MiniMecha: Plankton pilots a human-sized mech in ''3'' and ''4'' since he would be too small otherwise.
129	* PromotedToPlayable:
130	** Sandy and Skipper are in the background of the ''Super Brawl'' stages Krusty Krab and Penguin Lair respectively, but are characters you can fight as in ''2''.
131	** In the original ''Super Brawl'' Chum Chum is in the background whenever Fanboy is fighting, but while he still does this in 2, he can now be selected as a character and he has Fanboy in the background. Neither of them are in the background if they are fighting each other.
132	** ''4'' is an unusual case. When the game released, Plankton was initially demoted from a playable fighter in ''2'' and ''3'' to a boss who could not be played as in ''4'', but a later update repromoted Plankton to playable while giving his final boss status to [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012 Tiger Claw]].
133	* ShoutOut: King Julien's home stage in ''Jingle'', ''Brawl'', ''Fall'', ''Summer'' and ''2'' is an instrumental excerpt of "I Like To Move It" by Music/WillIAm.
134	* SidelinedProtagonistCrossover:
135	** In ''3'', Antonio Garcia, the Gold Ranger, is the only playable Ranger from ''Series/PowerRangersSamurai'', leaving out all the other Rangers.
136	** ''4'' and ''World'' have Sky Whale, an in-universe fictional video game character, as the fighter representing ''Series/GameShakers'' over any of the main cast.
137	** In ''World'', Olly Timbers is the sole playable representative for ''WesternAnimation/WelcomeToTheWayne'' over protagonist Ansi Molina (who instead appears as a [[AssistCharacter Brawl Call]] alongside Saraline Timbers).
138	* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Bessie was the only female character until ''Super Brawl 2'' added Sandy and Kitty Katswell.
139	* TokenEvilTeammate:
140	** Plankton is the only character playable in ''4'' to be an outright villain.
141	** Abrasive Spongebob is the only character on the evil side of ''3'' that was in the ''Just Got Real'' edition as well.
