Trivia

The game play aspect and the mini game format were possibly influenced from the famed Mario Party titles.
When SpongeBob goes to the Mermalair, he can be heard saying Bad Word #11.
When SpongeBob wins an audition, one of his phrases is "Go self!" Actually, this phrase is heard on in the pilot episode "Help Wanted."
Some people describe this as a Spongebob version of Mario Party due to the mini-games.
The game's title is a parody of the phrase "Lights, Camera, ACTION!"
SpongeBob is shown riding a unicycle (1 wheel cycle) but in the console versions of the game when he is an Police Officer he rides an normal cycle, yelling, "I'm Ready! I'm Ready!" instead of his unicycle, but the colors are the same.
This game was also set to be released on the DS and PSP, however they were not released on those systems. They may have been replaced by "The Yellow Avenger".
This was released on DS in Korea only.
In the PC version, when SpongeBob has to catch Man-Ray, SpongeBob was unable to catch him. When that happened, he said "He so amazing! I must do something to stop him and convince him to be in the show. Let's see... in episode 17 of Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy... AHA! They used the tickle belt on him!" In "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III," when he was talking about the tickle belt, he said that it was from episode 17, a reference to this game.
The camp tent is also seen in "Arrgh!".
The PC version of this game has several similarities to the PC version of The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie Game.
This is the last SpongeBob game for the Xbox.
In the UK, the cover art is different.
The plot of the PC version has some similarities to "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy VI: The Motion Picture".
This marks the only appearance of the Tentacle Acres Cocoa Shop (PC version only).
This game was released on Lux Interior's 59th birthday, two years after Battle for Bikini Bottom was released, and one year after Nicktoons Movin' was released.
This game was released on PC, GameCube, and Game Boy Advance one year after The Complete 2nd Season was released.
