Reception[]
The game was poorly received by critics and gamers alike. On IGN, it received a 3 out of 10, reviewer Craig Harris stating "Cartoon Network Speedway is one of the sloppiest and most generic kart racers released on the Game Boy Advance." It currently has a 53% rating on Game Rankings. It was also given a 65 out of 100 from Next Level Gaming, a 3 out of 5 from Nintendo Power, and a 58 out of 100 from VG-Force. Complaints centered around bad and choppy graphics, the slow pace, Dexter and the Powerpuff Girls not being available, and the lack of challenging gameplay.
Trivia[]
- Goofs:
- When playing as the Eds on the Hot Rod Johnny track, one of the opponents is another team of Eds.
- Jonny's name is misspelled as "Johnny 2x4."
- Edtropolis is misspelled as "Edopolis."
- Ed, Edd n Eddy has two race locations in the game: Edopolis (which actually looks more like the Cul-de-Sac) and the Construction Derby.
- Each course usually contains at least one shortcut, which is usually used by at least one competitor.
- Edopolis contains two that are never used by any other competitors, allowing the player to win easily by using them.
- Cow and Chicken has the most racers in the game, with a total of four.
- However, in terms of total characters, Ed, Edd n Eddy has the most with five (spread out over two carts), while Cow and Chicken has three characters and Cow's superhero alter-ego (spread out over four carts).
- Each team is given fifteen points, which are in some way spread out over three categories: Speed, Grip, and Weight. Speed refers to top speed, Grip to handling, and Weight to stopping power. The most unbalanced racer is Cow, with 8 in Weight, only 4 in Speed, and 3 in Grip, while her brother Chicken is the most balanced racer, with a 5 in all categories.
- The Eds are also very balanced, coming in at just under average for Speed and Grip with 4 apiece, and with a stopping power of 7.
- Jonny is also balanced, with Speed of 4, Grip of 6, and Weight of 5.
