Warner Bros Cartoon Smackdown

Warner Bros Cartoon Smackdown is a fighting game made by Valley Sun Games and Published by Warner Bros it is the second and last game under their partnership

History
The origins with Warner Bros Cartoon Smackdown began in 1997 when Valley Sun Games developed their first game for the Nintendo 64 in partnership with Warner called Tom & Jerry 64 which was a financial failure and nearly ended the deal with Warner, But due to lack of other developers wanting to work with them and that Valley Sun had released Center of Conflict 64 which was really flying off the shelves so they ended up staying with Valley Sun, In 1998 Warner Bros asked Valley Sun Games to make a so called "Mashup Game" using all of the Characters from Warner Bros specifically the Looney Tunes but the whole "fighting game" aspect didn't occur until Super Smash Bros was unveiled in 1998 and in fact Valley Sun Games was thinking about making a game based off of Space Jam with it being called Space Jam 64, When the whole fighting aspect occurred at first Warner was hesitant to make such a game with their characters but would soon give in so development officially began on Warner Bros Cartoon Smackdown in November of 1998, Development was a little stressful with the December 1998 proposed release date not happening and the game would be pushed back, But the Game did release and on January 10th 1999.

Reception
The Game was received well with many saying that it was great for parties and a must have for families, And the Game sold well with a total of 2.6 Million Copies shipped in all, The Game was released near the end of the Nintendo 64's lifespan so audiences needed at least one more game, But as soon as Super Smash Bros released it blew the game out of the water immediately capturing the fighting game throne.

Legacy
The Game is usually liked upon Vidspace and YouTube Reviewers but is usually being mistaken for a Smash Clone despite the fact that the game released a couple months before Super Smash Bros released but despite this the game has also become a sort of a collectors piece.
