Transcript
Like most of us born in the mid-90s, I was lucky enough to enjoy the golden age of Cartoon Network. The likes of Courage the Cowardly Dog, Dexter’s Laboratory and The Powerpuff Girls made weekend mornings and after school evenings rich with colourful worlds, irreverent characters and zany plots.
To this day if I’m ever looking for something to pick me up or give me a healthy dose of nostalgia, I’ll whack on an episode or two and take a trip back to childhood.
Of this prestigious bunch, none stack up to the absolute genius of Ed, Edd n Eddy. The hijinx of three 11 year old friends trying to scam their neighbours out of enough money to buy jawbreakers are some of the funniest 20 minutes to be found anywhere on TV, let alone just the kids channels.
But if you’ve clicked on this video, chances are you don’t need me to tell you that. But what are less well known are the various video game adaptations featuring the residents of the cul-de-sac. Like many cartoons from this time, studios couldn’t help but milk their technicolour cash cows and slap them on a game cartridge or disc, to varying degrees of success.
Yet whether they be good, bad or anywhere in between, each is still a fascinating time capsule that’s worth talking about, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do. In this video I’ll be taking a look at each of the Ed, Edd n Eddy titles that received a full console release, as well as games that featured the Ed Boys. I’ll tell you a little bit about each one, whether they’re any good and if you should check them out today.
What I won’t be doing is talking about all the web games that you could play on the Cartoon Network website. One because they’re pretty much all defunct by this point, and also there’s like 30 of them and finding enough information about the console game was hard enough. So instead, here’s a tasteful in memoriam…

Cartoon Network: Speedway
So the first of the games to feature the Eds in a supporting role was Cartoon Network Speedway, released back on November 17th 2003 for the Gameboy Advance and boy is it a kart racer on the GBA!
You can expect all of the grand prixs, zany weapons and other tropes of the genre, as well as some surprising innovations. Speedway actually introduced a Blue Shell mechanic before Mario Kart, so take that Chris Pratt! And to its credit, Speedway also handles and plays really well, and although I wouldn’t say it offers much of a challenge, I still enjoyed zipping around the various courses.
When it comes to our favourite show, you can pick either the Eds in a shared vehicle, or somewhat randomly, Johnny 2x4 as an unlockable racer. But it’s a good job they tell you who you pick beforehand, because even for a GBA game of the time, everything looks like ass.
Everything looks so muddy and pixelated, and given that Mario Kart Super Circuit came out two years before it is just inexcusable. And listen, I’m all for Johnny getting his moment in the sun, but when Dexter’s Laboratory and The Powerpuff Girls have no representation, even...
