Nickelodeon Guts SNES
Game Information
Nickelodeon GUTS is based off of the Nickelodeon TV show in the late 90's that is basically American Gladiators for kids. The events in the game are based off of the actual game show events with the main goal being to score as many points as possible while trying to beat the clock. In Elastic Sports, the player is strapped onto a long bungee cord and is bounced around. There are three events: Slam Dunk is a basketball game, Attack is lacrosse and Spiral where the objective is to throw a football through a hanging tire. Action Sports is an obstacle course which someone would find at a boot camp and is divided into two events: Basic Training involves poles, swinging ropes and punching bags and Tornado Run which adds water jets and moving platforms. Players can also pick up bonus items that will add time or replenish health and a chance at the bonus round. The final event is the Aggro Crag which is a giant indoor mountain the player must climb while avoiding various obstacles such as confetti cannons, moving platforms and smoke vents. The goal of this event is to navigate the mountain and activate five different sensors located on the mountain before being able to activate the last one at the very top of the mountain. There is also an option for two friends to compete either head-to-head or alternating depending upon the event. Elastic lets the players compete against each other on a split-screen while Action Sports and the Aggro Crag has to be played through alternating play.

Additional Information
In Elastic Sports, you'll strap yourself into a harness hooked to a long elastic cord. You'll jump and bounce around like a crazy person while trying to make as many shots as you can through the goal before the buzzer sounds.
There are three types of elastic games: Slam Dunk, which is a basketball game; Attack, which is a lacrosse competition; and Spirals, which has you throwing a football through a hanging tire. In each you can perform two different special moves, such as the reverse between the legs throw in the football game and the reverse slam in the basketball dunkathon.
Action Sports has you running, crawling, climbing, and jumping through a series of obstacle courses in order to reach the finish line as quickly as you can. Play is divided into two sections: Basic Training, which incorporates swinging ropes, suspended ropes, poles, water, slides, and punching bags into the action; and the Tornado Run, which is similar to Basic Training, but adds earthquake platforms and water jets to the mix. To give your competitor an edge, you can find bonus items that will give you extra time, a full energy bar, and access to a special bonus round in which you knock balls off of a wall.
Finally, the Aggro Crag is a mountain run that combines many of the obstacles from Action Sports with new obstacles such as confetti cannons, smoke jets, and moving platforms. As you work your way up the Aggro Crag, you must hit each of five activators before you can activate the last one at the top of the mountain.
Nickelodeon GUTS lets you play alone or challenge a friend to alternating (Aggro Crag and Action Sports) or simultaneous (Elastic Sports) competition. You can enter a single event or play the GUTS Show, which lets you train in two Action Sports and two randomly selected Elastic Sports. If you score enough points in the show, you will advance to the Aggro Crag.
