Operation: V.I.D.E.O.G.A.M.E. (Villains In Detention Escape Outpost Growing Amalgamation Mega Enormously) is a 2005 platformer based on the American animated television series Codename: Kids Next Door. It was released for the GameCube, Xbox, and PlayStation 2 on October 11, 2005 in the United States.
The powerful villain known as 'Father' has recently freed various villains from the Kids Next Door Arctic Base, a prison for criminal adults. It's up to the Sector V Team, the heroes of the cartoon series, to capture them.
[edit] Plot
One day the KND are playing a video game. Numbuh 2 comes in with a simulator helmet for Numbuh 1. When Numbuh 1 tries the helmet on, the Toiletnator attacks. Numbuh 1 thinks this is the simulator, and defeats the Toiletnator anyway, before throwing him out the window.
After Numbuh 1 frees the team, Numbuh 86 reports. The most dangerous villans the KND has fought have escaped from the maximum security prison. Numbuh 86 states that the other KND sectors are at the beach. "I told you we should have gone to the beach today", Numbuh 5 states. Numbuh 86 also states if the KND capture the villans,they have to be transported to a super-triple-maximum security prison on the dark side of the moon, and that Gramma Stuffum has invaded the Sprinkle Puff Donut Shoppe and is filling the donuts with spinach,liver,and topping them off with olives!
So Numbuh 1 makes his way through the Sprinkle Puff Donut Shoppe through a giant oven,a giant fan,a river of dough, and finally confronting Gramma Stuffum and her Chuck Wagon in her lair. After Numbuh 1 defeats Gramma Stuffum, a mysterious person steals the engine core from the Chuck Wagon...
After Numbuh 1 defeats Gramma Stuffum, he gets a call from Numbuh 4. Numbuh 4 states that the KND Treehouse is covered in snot. Numbuh 1 thinks the Common Cold has invaded the treehouse.
So it's up to Numbuh 5 to get through the snot infested to try and turn off the Treehouse Security Systym(consisting of walls,tennis ball launchers,electrified floors,lasers and a motion sensitive disco ball beam) ,defeat the Flu Bugs and watchbots and free Numbuh 4.
When Numbuh 4 achieves this,the Common Cold introduces his Snot Bomber,which happens to be floating outside the treehouse. Numbuh 2 appears piloting the KND C.O.O.L.B.U.S ,which he uses to chase the Common Cold through the countryside, city and finally confronting the Snot Bomber at the beach. Afterwards the same mysterious person appears in a jetpack and takes the power core from the Snot Bomber, causing it to plummet to the ground,but Numbuh 2 didn't notice this because he was trying to pick up the phone he dropped.
That night,Numbuh 4 had to go to the toilet. Numbuh 1 states "You can always use...THE TOILET WE NEVER USE. However, Numbuh 4 did not believe him, and used the toilet anyway. But while Numbuh 4 was at the toilet,the power went off,and one-by-one Count Spankulot turned the KND into vampires. All except for Numbuh 4, who was at the toilet and had a little 'accident' on his shoes.
When Numbuh 4 found out about his team mates,he travelled through the treehouse to find and defeat them. Numbuh 1 had the power also to multiply into 2 fakes and one real.
When the KND were all reformed,they worked on catching all the hamsters to repower the treehouse. This tired them all out,except for Numbuh 3,who thought this as a game. So Numbuh 3 was assigned to catch all the hamsters throughout the treehouse and restablish the power core.
When Numbuh 3 achieved this Numbuh 1 decided to strike back at Count Spankulot. Numbuh 1 went out and browsed the neighborhood to free children,defeat Count Spankulot's minions,and to confront Count Spankulot himself at the School Clocktower after a myriad of enemies.
After Count Spankulot's defeation,Numbuh 86 reports again. He states that while the KND were having their 'spanking party', Stickybeard was leading the Sweet Revenge for all the sweets in the world. But because of Numbuh 4's curiousity of pressing buttons (particularly Numbuh 2's new T.A.R.P.O.O.N to get onto Stickybeard's ship) the mission was suspended to defeat pirates to gain engine blocks to fix the T.A.R.P.O.O.N.
Once the T.A.R.P.O.O.N was fixed the KND could get on with their misson. Numbuh 2 used the T.A.R.P.O.O.N (after Numbuh 4 had a little accident with the buttons,causing the C.O.O.L.B.U.S to fall) on Stickybeard's ship. Numbuh 5 slid along the T.A.R.P.O.O.N rope to the ship.
Numbuh 5 then had to make her way through the ship, defeating all of the pirates she came across and finally confronting Stickybeard (whose weakness was Jolly Rogers) in his candy treasury room. Once Stickybeard is defeated the mysterious person reveals herself as a former KND worker who now works for DCFDTL,and kicks Stickybeard on top of Numbuh 5.
Afterwards,Knightbrace's toothpaste 'Bug Brite' made from fireflies had to be stopped. Numbuh 3 had to browse the neighborhood for fireflies to burn through the garden fences to where the fireflies were being held captive (in childproof jars),The School Clocktower. From here,Numbuh 3 must use fireflies not being held captive to burn the jar lids open. This leaves a glow from the tower once the fireflies leave.
The fireflies freed show the location of Knightbrace's Cavity Cave. From here, Numbuh 1 must find the passcodes to open the path to Knightbrace's lair. Once here, Numbuh 1 will have to cross a river of pure floride and get to a Dentadrone spawner to short circuit the entrance to Knightbrace's lair. Once in the lair,Numbuh 1 finds Knightbrace in his Dental Assault Chair.
After Numbuh 1 defeats Knightbrace,Numbuh 4 finds the Toiletnator,who states "I told you I'd be back!". So Numbuh 4 has to make his way through the flooding treehouse,defeating the Toiletnator's new henchmen,Scrummy Mummies and Poohemoths,to his room. Numbuh 4 challenges the Toiletnator to a race to Numbuh 4's toilet. When Numbuh 4 wins,the Toiletnator is sent to the C.O.O.L.B.U.S with the other villans.
The KND begin to take off after they've checked the villans. Since they're all there,the KND blast off for the moon in the C.O.O.L.B.U.S. While they're up there,Numbuh 2 mistakes the DCFDTL's Mega-Mansion for the Moon. The KND must defeat all the Assault Satilites and the DCFDTL's Mega-Mansion to get to the moon and deliver the villans.
Once the KND have achieved this,the DCFDTL's Mega-Mansion sends out a beam which teleports the villans to the moon and merges them into...AMALGAMATION! A huge villan which is a combination of the six villans you've already fought! But the Kids Next Door have their own Amalgamation,known as...THE T.R.E.E.H.E.M.O.T.H!
When the T.R.E.E.H.E.M.O.T.H beats Amalgamation,this causes a HUGE explosion sending the villans flying (literally) .
It turns out that you were playing a videogame in this game ,and that by the look on Toiletnator's face ,things might be starting for real....
