Rather than letting me go, letting me have my fun with other platforms, you throw a holy hand grenade of nostalgia and release Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up. You know my weakness for TMNT, you vile white box, so you had to go on and tout how you had Ubisoft, Super Smash Bros. Brawl co-developers Game Arts, and former members of Team Ninja all involved in the project. That's not fair. If I hear the words "Team" and "Ninja" in a single combined utterance in that specific order, there's a certain high level of quality I'm expecting. So I spent some time with you last night, after I told myself I would never pick you up again for anything less that a new online multiplayer Star Fox title filled with aerial dog fighting and devoid of friend codes. This, my dear Wii, was a clever ploy to get us back together for one night. We played this fighting game earlier this year at E3, and I was actually looking forward to a few rounds with you upon TMNT: Smash-Up's release had you tightened things up a bit. You let me down, Wii, you let me down..."
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has been on many consoles since it was released on the NES back in 1989. Many fans of TMNT who grew up during the late 1980s and early 1990s may have watched the TV show.
So do I and watched the 1987 TMNT on TV and video tapes. I had one video tape that had the Burger King Kid's Club promo.
Glad to hear that your kids also love TMNT.
Go ninja, go ninja, go!
From the original arcade game to the most current releases, Prima Games has you covered on the history of Ninja Turtles, dude.
ahhh i remeber this game on the snes, as far as memory can tell it was either this or battletoads doubledragon as the first game i laid eyes on since birth i was below the age of four, cant really remeber it well now lol
Turtles in Time is one if my favorite games ever. And it is probably the games I've beaten the most times. My cousin and I beat it dozens upon dozens of times to improve our completion time.
It was the perfect beat'em up game.
Still hope they revisit this franchise and give it the Batman Arkham City treatment.
GotGame: We take a retrospective look back at the TMNT games throughout the years. Not every game, mind you, but the key titles that have shaped their gaming history and why they helped or hurt the legacy of TMNT.
