I hate copyright, the recap segment near the start had to be muted due to the music. If you really wanted to hear my sexy voice (and who would blame you) during that segment, enable captions. Follow-up edit: The captions are now ACTUALLY working. My guess is UA-cam removed all captions for the muted segment, so I had to add them back in, but they _should_ be working now!
Wait a second! You're telling me they made a collection of minigames of the Atlantis episode yet didn't made a single level on the scene where Sandy literally digitized to fight off a bunch of pixelated monsters to save the others that is literally a parody of video games?! Wow glad they got their priorities straight for this one....
The closest we got were the germ-based minigames featured near the end, but yeah no main level. Honestly a platformer / action adventure minigame starring Sandy would've rounded out all the game variety really well. Here's to hoping the DS version does something greater!
@@btanman There is a Sandy mission in the DS version, though it is a lot different than the episode. In it, you run through a bunch of weird vector graphics hexagonal areas to look for artifacts.
i seriously recommend checking out the ds version, it's more in line with the other games, being a platformer, and is genuinely pretty fun. at least in comparison to this
Mood fr, sometimes you just gotta appreciate something for what it is. I wouldn't call it "so bad it's so good" either, because it has some great aspects for sure. Maybe it's more of a mixed bag with charm and passion behind it. And a lot of nostalgia for me too. :3
Considering that this was my first SpongeBob game, I have a bit of a nostalgic immunity towards this game. Personally, the maze and camera levels were my favorites, and I loved unlocking the different extras.
Grew up and had the game myself. From what I remember, I might've had the commentary feature on all the time. Fun game back then- but nowadays, yeah, MUCH better pool of options
Squidward super shooter is a cool Metroid Prime homage down to face reflection. Really shows the devs’ passion! Makes me want a whole spongebob themed metroid shooter based on the alien hunting episode. Sandy is literally Samus, a kick butt girl in a special suit
I started laughing when the video was suddenly muted because I didn’t know if it was a problem on my end or if it was intentional, and then it just became a whole montage of random SpongeBob pictures and I was dying of laughter at Spongebob mid-bubble blow and just gasping. The silence and confusion just made it for me lol
Come now, there are way worse games out there. Look at most mobile games for instance. Or whatever dumb normie FPS comes out every year with the same exact garbage gameplay and recycled formulas. This is at least something different, and at least it tried to be something nice, even if it looks odd or bootleg-y.
i got this on the DS as a kid. and i must say it looks quite different from the Wii version, yet it's so fun. i've played through it a ton of times and still have the cartridge. i'm surprised it was so forgotten, but you often enjoy the unknown games
When I was a kid I had this, battlefront 2, the cars video game, and Simpsons hit & run on my ps2. I distinctly recall being physically scared of rounding the first corner in the tank mission. And the theme of the bus level. Everything else I can only recall scant vignettes.
all i remember of the wii version is renting it as a kid and being confused with how different it was from the ds game lol. gotta love that era of games.
I actually liked the Atlantis Squarepantis episode, it's a pretty good episode. Although not perfect, it has some pretty good scenes for the show, and David Bowie's performance is great.
@AzureWolf168 Spongebob is literally THE goofball character. Sure some seasons flesh it out more than others (and yes, these newer seasons are complete dogshit) but you can't deny that he's been like this since the start. Also, this is one of my favorite episodes, and I'm proud of that fact. Glad I'm not some pedestrian NPC that says shit like "New Student Starfish" because of an unfunny meme.
i always saw this episode as a letdown because they could have done so much more with the atlantis setting than just a willy wonka parody with plankton forced in as a villain
Of all the problems I had with the episode, the one that stands out the most is how David Bowie's character is the one character to not have a musical number. That's probably it's biggest missed opportunity. Aside from that, it was just boring imo. I respect you enjoying the episode though
THANK YOU, I have been nostalgia-zing about this game for years, as my PS2 doesn't work anymore (although I could buy the Wii version ig). One of the very first videogames I've ever played, and despite it not being a 10/10 game, I have a lot of good memories with it. One of which hilariously being the very rhythm mini games you're despising; you see, this might actually be the first "rhythm game" I played in my life, and what I didn't know back then, was that the rhythm genre of videogames was going to become my "specialization" of sorts, as a lot of games I play to this day are rhythm games (except, mostly better ones haha), but yeah. While I haven't been able to replay it still (and I will soon), I guess this silly Spongebob game unlocked something within me. It showed me that if it wants to, even a silly little videogame can pack a great punch. I vividly remember all those minigames with joy. Oh, and those amoeba minigames?? Somehow, very cool ones! Idk why, but I'm guessing it's the fact that the rhythm minigames were made like this, with all the characters walking or marching through the level with some funny skits sprinkled in, that is to me what made it so charming; at least to myself as a kid. I'm imagining the rhythm sections are actually not well synchronized with the music, as that seems to be usually the case with non-rhythm-centered videogames especially of licensed movie/TV shows adaptations videogames, but I'll get back to you on that when I do replay the game. Thank you for making this video, I'm glad to have finally seen one made on this game, for years of UA-cam it is pretty odd that this is the only Spongebob game I haven't been recommended videos on until now. Also you're funny, and a good videomaker. Subscribed, I'm looking forward to more videos from you!
I remember the copy of this game that I had would crash anytime you got to Spongebob’s part during the bus mini game. First time I ever raged at a video game. Thank you, Atlantis Squarepantis!
Never thought I'd see a video about this game. This is one of the games I have the fondest memories off from when I was little. Just started rewatching the series recently and I might just have to play this on my actually real wii. Thank you for making this video [:
Super late to the party here. But the Wii version of Atlantis SquarePantis is still one of my favorite SpongeBob games even though it is just a mini game Collection. Maybe it’s just nostalgia talking
Fun fact: The DS version is considered to be the best version of the game (From what I've heard), considering it's almost a COMPLETELY different game. It's also the ONLY version of the game that I've played lol.
I can't forget about this game. I remember going through this game multiple times as a young lad. Once when I played it and again when I had to help my younger brother.
thank you for doing a video on this game, I grew up with it and loved it dearly. really good quality video bro, wishing you luck in growing your channel
Very high quality video, I can see you growing a lot in the future! Great editing, great title, great insights and commentary on the game, and great humor!
It was kind of short and simple, but it was indeed nice. And also was oddly cute, though I guess that's just due to the fact the show itself is rather cute.
For a second I thought this was gonna be about the special episode itself, and was about to be really sad because I genuinely loved that silly special when I was a kid, but now I am even more sad because I never even knew there was a game around this special at all.
“Speaking of difficulty…there is none.” Proceeds to show the very mini game that prevented my younger self from progressing for months until i finally got it
The I like how the console versios of this game kinda sucks but the DS version of this game is genuinely great, which is usually the complete opposite of what normally happens.
Btw the DS version is actually a pretty okay 3D platformer. Nothing god tier but pretty decently enjoyable. I still remember that gear boss. I always thought it had a cool design, albeit as an adult, I now see it as pretty damn generic, and I also remember how broken Patrick's spin move. The multi hit just shredded things like paper
The memory of the manual bus drive was locked in my head throughout my years of growing up. But the game that I'll never forget was spongebob lights, camera, pants... or was it lights, camera, action.😅
I played this game a lot as a kid, one time i had made it to the bus segment and it was patricks turn to sing, as soon as the music started the game crashed and patricks pupils disappeared. I never played that game again lmao
Oh hey! I remember playing this as a kid! My local video store had it so we rented it out a couple of times. I acutally couldn't get past the 3rd level somewhat, so i usually got stuck there and had no idea what i was supposed to do. Until i actually got past it and beat the game in one sitting. I have very good memories of this game but ain't surprised its dog crap. I think it brings me more nostalgia for that video rental store. Sadly, it was closed down in 2016. I loved that place as a kid. My parents didnt have enough money to buy many games so we usually just rented then out for very cheap. Its how i have memories of Super Paper Mario(which i also got stuck on and never beat) and Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon( got stuck on that too but managed to find a way to beat the 1st boss and then beat the game). Also games like Mario Sports Mix. Man, i loved that game! Can say though, the games i DID own as a kid, were very $10 bargain bin games you would find lol. Also Mario Kart.
I remenber playing this game. It was so short. I managed to get to the last mission after about 7 hours if I remember correctly. Still have fond memories playing it though.
I either had the DS version or the GBA version, (maybe both) I only remember having it, losing it, seeing it in a drawer once, then promptly losing it again.
I remember I got to play this on DS and the shortly after I got to play the PS2 version and they’re so different. Even back then I could tell something was off
Wow, I never knew how much was in this game. Played this around 10 years ago and I can only remember going through level 12. Clearly I didn't miss out on much.
Atlantis Squarepantis for the Wii was legit the first video game I ever owned (I begged my mom to buy it before I even had a Wii). Some things are better left as memories. Great video tho, excellent pacing and funny editing and commentary. Agreed on the rythem game being terrible tho haha. Still have nightmares.
I misread the video's thumbnail as "Medicare" instead of "Mediocre," lol.
I DIDN'T EVEN SEE THAT OH NO
I wonder what atlantian Healthcare is like
I did the same thing
Same💀
I read it as “mediacre” because the amulet has an A in it
So, whoever's idea it was to have Sandy's demented expression reflected in her bowl during her final rail shooter segment deserves a raise.
Spec ops the line moment
Epic metroid prime homage
I can’t believe Nintendo ripped off this game when they made Metroid Prime.
Wtf Doom Eternal copied SpongeBob smh my head
Funniest and most genius thing ever. They deserve 2 raises.
Mr krabs looks like a rejected muppet in the cutscenes
@AzureWolf168 especially when the models seem to have been lifted straight from the old PC games
@@red-man7017aAtlantis one was my favorite wth do you mean bud?
5:28 especially
The recap audio is now spongebob lost media... put it on the iceburg
I honestly thought I was the only one that it happened to at first lol
I hate copyright, the recap segment near the start had to be muted due to the music. If you really wanted to hear my sexy voice (and who would blame you) during that segment, enable captions.
Follow-up edit: The captions are now ACTUALLY working. My guess is UA-cam removed all captions for the muted segment, so I had to add them back in, but they _should_ be working now!
Damn right as I clicked it
I thought my phone was glitching so thank you for letting us know
Wait a second!

I've heard it's supposed to be surprisingly good, may have to check it out for a future video, thanks for the suggestion!
I played it with a friend many many years ago, it wasn't that bad from what I remember! It had some nice music too
I gotta say it is so much better, and the soundtrack is a surprising bop
Oh yeah, thats the version i played
Yeah, absolutely! The DS Version was a hyper banger.
IDK why, but I like that detail of seeing Sandy's face when shooting with her; I think it would make sense seeing everything through her eyes.
it looks really good, i do wonder if they got inspired from somewhere
Metroid prime vibes.
This might be a B-list spongebob game, but dammit, its a B-list spongebob game I love.
Mood fr, sometimes you just gotta appreciate something for what it is. I wouldn't call it "so bad it's so good" either, because it has some great aspects for sure. Maybe it's more of a mixed bag with charm and passion behind it. And a lot of nostalgia for me too. :3
Same bro
“If the Planet Mars turns purple, then who is a squirrel?” 15/10, incredible writing
Considering that this was my first SpongeBob game, I have a bit of a nostalgic immunity towards this game. Personally, the maze and camera levels were my favorites, and I loved unlocking the different extras.
Grew up and had the game myself. From what I remember, I might've had the commentary feature on all the time.
Fun game back then- but nowadays, yeah, MUCH better pool of options
Squidward super shooter is a cool Metroid Prime homage down to face reflection. Really shows the devs’ passion! Makes me want a whole spongebob themed metroid shooter based on the alien hunting episode. Sandy is literally Samus, a kick butt girl in a special suit
This video has unlocked hidden memories of my past...
Also, the reflection in Sandy's visor during the shooter levels is pretty neat.
Oh man, I remember loving this as a kid. Even the DS version which was a totally separate game was a blast. Great vid! Was hilarious.
So I’m glad I’m not the only one who loved the DS version
Yeah the ds version is actually pretty good
Now levels of BFBB?
hell no
But damn it's still good
I actually never finished the DS version because I didn't like it (and especially not now as an adult) so I'm glad that people like it.
I started laughing when the video was suddenly muted because I didn’t know if it was a problem on my end or if it was intentional, and then it just became a whole montage of random SpongeBob pictures and I was dying of laughter at Spongebob mid-bubble blow and just gasping.
The silence and confusion just made it for me lol
welcome to my spongebob powerpoint presentation
I remember playing this repeatedly as a kid. Don’t know why it was this game in particular but i can remember the bus driving section very vividly.
same but the photo rail shooter part for me.
I never realized that Bowie's character had Heterochromia in the episode. Cool visual nod to the cool dude voicing him.
i highly admire how u could go through the whole game, i would’ve stopped playing 5 minutes after i started lmfao
Come now, there are way worse games out there. Look at most mobile games for instance. Or whatever dumb normie FPS comes out every year with the same exact garbage gameplay and recycled formulas.

Ds really was fun, I really felt rewarded when I unlocked Squidward.
@@franciscop.garcia9931 Wait, you can unlock Squidward in the DS version? HOW!?!?!
@@314rft If I remember correctly just by beating the game.
12:46 I love how the level ends with this weirdly stretched mr krabs in the background.

all i remember of the wii version is renting it as a kid and being confused with how different it was from the ds game lol. gotta love that era of games.
the ds and gba versions are basically the spongebob and patrick section but way better
I had a vague memory of playing this and this unlocked some memories thank you 😎

I see you are a man of culture, the boneworks/lab music hits way too hard
Atlantis SquarePantis I was still bothered that David Bowie didn't even sing, even though that special was a musical
Lowkey my favorite part about the video is your humor, especially the treasure room rhythm game section lol (10:51-11:46)
Super late to the party here. But the Wii version of Atlantis SquarePantis is still one of my favorite SpongeBob games even though it is just a mini game Collection. Maybe it’s just nostalgia talking
I was very surprised at the quality of the presentation, voiceover, and music choice in this video (persona especially). Very good work, keep it up!
I remember messing around in this game a whole lot, really fun times. Also the minigame music in the top-down shooters was a banger
I really like the DS version. I could just be nostalgia biased but I think that one’s the best version.
The DS version is GOD
@@Dezlite true

YESSS
I never forgot I always remembered and glad to see someone talking about it
The ds version still has a place in my heart
Same. It's simple, but effective, and has some genuinely nice sounding music.

8:40 BONELAB MEMTIONED 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
Wait you have less than 1k you deserve more this vid is so good
Seeing this video. Does remind of old UA-cam. You earn yourself a subscriber.
i remember really loving the DS version. from what i remember it was a pretty decent 2.5D platformer with occaisonal puzzle elements
It was kind of short and simple, but it was indeed nice. And also was oddly cute, though I guess that's just due to the fact the show itself is rather cute.
dude level 12 just gives me so much of a metroid prime vibe which made me love it even more.
Love the addition of the Fe3h music
This is definitely one of the SpongeBob games of all time.
For a second I thought this was gonna be about the special episode itself, and was about to be really sad because I genuinely loved that silly special when I was a kid, but now I am even more sad because I never even knew there was a game around this special at all.

This is my favorite video of 2023
"Unfortunately, Sylvainward has a 5% Strength growth, so I bench him" actually got a laugh out of me
I loved this game so much growing up
the level selection map and the soundtrack for the cave level were the most top tier parts of this game
Unfathomably based usage of the Three Houses soundtrack
RESPECT!
I thought that you meant the tv special which I remember very well but you are totally right about everyone forgetting the game exist including me.
I honestly had fun with this game as a kid.
I used to love this game, I'd play it every day, one time i played it for like 10 hours straight, it was beautiful
I loved this game as a kid, it was like being high before I knew what being high was
That arcade music at the extras section brought back memories
I have this game on my DSi, and I still cant beat it lol
I'm just gonna comment here for engagement
may the algorithm be with you 🙏
Hey thanks! Hope the algorithm hits you too!
I had the ds version as a kid. This brings back a lot of memories.
used to love this game when i was younger, odd seeing it nowadays. Great video though!
So question, does anyone else have a audio problem where the audio stops at the 1:00 mark and starts back up in the 2 min mark?
Yes
Copyright lol
I recommend to Turn on the captions
The I like how the console versios of this game kinda sucks but the DS version of this game is genuinely great, which is usually the complete opposite of what normally happens.
Can we appreciate the use of the Bonelabs soundtrack. Man of taste.
Don' judge me but I skipped he recap cause the audio was cut there too.
completely fair, got copyright claimed but I couldn't add anything post upload to tell any viewers :(
I missed this game, was awesome on PS2, cool to see its actually known by someone
Btw the DS version is actually a pretty okay 3D platformer. Nothing god tier but pretty decently enjoyable. I still remember that gear boss. I always thought it had a cool design, albeit as an adult, I now see it as pretty damn generic, and I also remember how broken Patrick's spin move. The multi hit just shredded things like paper
0:40 that soundtrack hit so hard I did a little boogie at my table before my brain could comprehend what was happening
The memory of the manual bus drive was locked in my head throughout my years of growing up. But the game that I'll never forget was spongebob lights, camera, pants... or was it lights, camera, action.😅
11:57 BONEWPRKS MENTIONED 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
Squidward the Poser is probably so detailed because the developers idolized Squidward. I mean, who wouldn't?
Wow this brings back memories
This was my first game. Never finished it but brings back memories
I played this game a lot as a kid, one time i had made it to the bus segment and it was patricks turn to sing, as soon as the music started the game crashed and patricks pupils disappeared. I never played that game again lmao
This game is not forgotten for me. It’s one of my first games on DS
This game is basically the Sticker Star of SpongeBob.
Woooow I miss that game! This was that game for me I would get stuck and come back later! 😅
Nah just seeing that front art brought me back to my childhood
Oh hey! I remember playing this as a kid! My local video store had it so we rented it out a couple of times.

I have a vague memory playing this and another one, i remember Patrick being a comic super hero
I got a really good laugh out of "FPS: First Person Squidward"
Mr. Krabs looks looks high in the cutscenes everytime he's excited
This is certainly the SpongeBob game to ever exist.
I either had the DS version or the GBA version, (maybe both) I only remember having it, losing it, seeing it in a drawer once, then promptly losing it again.
