'''''SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom''''' is a 3D platform video game made by Nickelodeon, developed by Heavy Iron Studios and published by THQ. It was released for the Microsoft Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, and PlayStation 2. The game sold millions of copies, earning the GameCube version the Player's Choice title and the PlayStation 2 version the Greatest Hits title.
In an effort to cause the kind of global mayhem he has always dreamed of, the evil Plankton has set in motion his most diabolical plot ever to take over the world in '''''SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom''''' . The fate of Bikini Bottom has been put in the hands (or small tentacles) of three unsuspecting heroes. Put your platform skills to the test as SpongeBob, Patrick, or Sandy Cheeks, with an array of insane new maneuvers and power-ups at your disposal. Explore a huge 3D world, encounter familiar friends, and finally put an end to Plankton's evil scheme.

=== Frozen Cutscenes ===
Sometimes, when cutscenes are playing, the video will freeze and the audio will become stuck. On Dolphin {{revision|7323}}, the opening cutscene freezes and the narrator is stuck repeating "to Bikini...to Bikini...". In {{revision|7719}}, the opening cutscene freezes as Plankton is preparing to pull the Duplicatotron 3000 switch and he repeats "command...command...". You can still press A to skip the cutscene and continue game play.

Translucent red flat planes appear on the ground in many areas. This minor graphical glitch doesn't affect game play.
