The '''Nintendo DS version of ''Plankton's Robotic Revenge''''' is a {{SBSP}} video game developed by {{W|Engine Software}} on [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo DS|Nintendo DS]] and published by {{W|Activision}}. It was released on {{Time|October 11}}, {{Time|2013}} in Europe, {{Time|October 18}} in Russia, {{Time|October 22}} in North America, and {{Time|October 23}} in Australia. 

Much like its [[Plankton's Robotic Revenge|home console and Nintendo 3DS counterpart]], it is a ''SpongeBob SquarePants'' action-adventure platform video game.

==Plot==
{{Main|Plankton's Robotic Revenge#Plot}}

==Gameplay==
The Nintendo DS version is a lot more limited movement-wise compared to the console and [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo 3DS|Nintendo 3DS]] versions as the player cannot jump at will, but the player automatically jumps when they move their character off the edge of a cliff. This version has only 4 gizmos unlike the console and Nintendo 3DS versions which feature 7 gizmos. The 4 gizmos in the Nintendo DS version are the Pickle Blaster, Portable Tartar Sauce, Reef Blower, and Neptuning Fork. The gizmos shop does not appear in the midway point during a level in this version. Instead, the gizmos shop only appears in-between levels. All the boss fights in this version also play out the exact same way. The music is also lower quality due to the limitations of the Nintendo DS, and the characters do not talk during gameplay.

==Playable characters==
*SpongeBob SquarePants
*Mr. Krabs
*Patrick Star
*Sandy Cheeks
*Squidward Tentacles

==Enemies==
*[[Plankton giant robot ships|Plankton's Giant Robot Suit]] (boss)
*Super Scout
*Buzzbot (In this version, these can only be destroyed by gizmo attacks)
*Turret
*Electric Barrier: Blocks off an area and deals damage when players touch it. Must be deactivated by hitting a switch somewhere in the stage.
*Sentry: Basically a Turret that only fires in one direction.
*Rocket-bot
*Floating Mine
*Aerobot: Aerobots are just Super Scouts that can hover over pitfalls to pursue the player(s).
*Elite Turret: Fires spread shots instead of just a single bullet.
*Gatling Turret: Fires bullets more rapidly than a normal Turret.

==Development==
===General===
*There's an unused model of SpongeBob, with different textures and a flatter head.
*Leftover from ''HOP'' for the Nintendo DS such as models can be found due to the game being based on the same engine as ''HOP''.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/SpongeBob_SquarePants:_Plankton%27s_Robotic_Revenge_(Nintendo_DS) SpongeBob SquarePants: Plankton's Robotic Revenge (Nintendo DS) - The Cutting Room Floor]</ref>

==Trivia==
===General===
*The Nintendo DS version of this game can also be played on the Nintendo 3DS since the console is backwards compatible with Nintendo DS games.
*This was the last ''SpongeBob SquarePants'' video game released for the Nintendo DS.
**This is also the only non-crossover ''SpongeBob'' video game on the Nintendo DS to not be published by THQ.
*The [[Flying Dutchman]] makes a cameo in the level "Dutchman's Triangle." However, he cannot be interacted by the player. He is also in 2D despite the game using 3D models.
*In this version, the player does not get chased by Plankton's robot on the bridge.
*In this version, the sprockets counter was only programmed to go up to and fit 4 digit numbers. As a result in this version, the maximum amount of sprockets the player can hold up to is 9,999.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bguTX68ZJ0 SpongeBob SquarePants: Plankton's Robotic Revenge (Nintendo DS) - Maximum Amount of Sprockets]</ref>
*This game borrows a similar currency that is used in the ''{{W|Ratchet & Clank}}'' franchise.
