Problems
Frozen Cutscenes
Sometimes, when cut-scenes are playing, the video will freeze and the audio will become stuck. On Dolphin r7323, the opening cutscene freezes and the narrator is stuck repeating "to Bikini...to Bikini...". In r7719, 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 gameplay.
Ground textures
Translucent red flat planes appear on the ground in many areas. This minor graphical glitch doesn't affect gameplay. File:SB-BfBB-redplanes.png
