Nickelodeon to bulk up online game library

by Kyle Orland { Mar 19th 2008 at 10:45AM }

MTV-owned Nickelodeon recently announced plans to add a whopping 1,600 Flash games to its network of web sites. That might sound like a lot, until you consider that the children's network already controls roughly 5,000 web games that reach over 20 million users every month.

Sure, a good proportion of those games are probably Space Invaders clones found at the acquisition AddictingGames.com. But the Nick portfolio also includes some deep, popular virtual worlds like Neopets and Nicktropolis, and the company has announced they'll be creating three more kid-focused, web-based MMOs in the future. When exactly did the first kids network become the first kids gaming network?

What they need to do is bring back the great Nick shows I watched in the 90's as a kid.

-Rocko's Modern Life, Hey Arnold, Rugrats (before Dill), SNICK (All That)... etc. List goes on

Ren and Stimpy was absolutely great ,Rocko was great, Doug was good,Hey Arnold was decent.

Live shows like Kennan and Kel were funny.

Rugrats well the truth I never understand why people liked that show that much is was pretty bad IMO.

Amen, man.

I miss all the good cartoons they used to show. Now it's all tween drama crap like Preggers 101 and other live-action BS.

Cartoon Network >>>>>>> Nickelodeon
(even without Dexter, which I still miss)

Are you afraid of the dark?

I used to visit Nick.com years ago and play some of their games and they were pretty good I mean especially compared to the ones in Cartoon network site.

The thing is that paying for them well other than their 3D games you can play better games in Mofunzone.com for free.Nabisco.com also had some good games as well.
