If anything, your final hit on Shredder should've been when he's descending after he walks off the higher platform. Sure, you won't see him melt into distinguished fire, as he goes through the floor Superman 64 style and dies immediately, shutting down his death animation from even finishing! But, it's definitely a great way to circumvent this devastating glitch - by using this other glitch, instead! Go figure.

Like wow man that was the first time seeing that

I just had this glitch happen to me so I had to search if it has happened to others. It's crazy I have beaten this game every week for a year and it just happened to me for the first time

sup bra 🤙

GG

he back, o law he back!

Nothing like those 10 am morning hatch streams!!

The classic hatch streams!! Hopefully you'll be back buddy! 👍

The Sega Master System one doesn't seem to have an ending, the 5th level just restarts after you complete it.

Hatch! Miss you on Twitch, hope you're well man.

I miss these days! Super happy for you though!

Still your fault

I got to the technodrome inside and died seconds later. I did not know you had 2 continues when all the turtles died.

I finally beat TMNT on the Cowabunga collection this evening. First time ever. After I realized how easy Shredder was, I played him again without scrolls. On only my 2nd attempt with Don's Bo, I ended up repeating this exact same Shredder infinite punch loop. That would have been really frustrating as a kid! What I thought I was really strange though is how Shredder is the only enemy in the entire game that has 'knockback' upon getting hit. I wouldn't be surprised if the programming logic was reversed and all the enemies in the game were actually suppose to knockback except for Shredder. It just doesn't make any sense how difficult the game is because none of the enemies have no knockback effect only for you to breeze through the final boss simply because he has knockback.

All you have to do to beat shredder suuuuper easy is to just collect the scrolls throughout the game and use them on shredder. It only takes about 4 to 5 hits with the scrolls and he's dead. Scrolls are the strongest weapon in the game. Scrolls are the key.

And it shoulda had Krang after Shredder.

The 1 hit death parts were damn frustrating. The walls closing in, the unbelievably frustrating jump over that stupid lava. Cost me a few busted controllers as a kid.

Cool Bart poster!

Does one need to see the final cutscene to truly be declared a winner?

You skip the laser, I'm disappointed. :)

In the manual? What is that?

Why!?!? Why would you do this to yourself, you sadistic SoB!

I just found a new favorite channel!

1:25 lol thats as far as I could get as a kid. I could not make that jump EVER

I enjoy this content 🤔... Subscribed 🤘🤓

Yeah as if this game wasn't hard enough

Had this as a kid but only made it inside technodrome and not much further. Technodrome seems very intimidating to me inside with those crazy enemies

It would not let pass one of the barricades. That was my only real problem.

Yep. I was kid when I beat this. Those closing spike rooms were THE most BS part. But this glitch back then would have set off a furious, throw controller, throw nes, make some new holes in wall, break cartridge in half rage quit.

Omg your face 😭😭😭😭

Dont feel bad i got alot of bad luck to im fucking cursed

The feels

Stay on the top platform and hit shredder with Donatello when he jumps. Endless loop and Shredder goes down!

aww, he's giving you a pat on the shoulder!

One of the many examples of why I don't want a self driving car

Oh man that’s the worst luck ever

Aw man lol, that sucks! This game was so hard, I got it when I was in 1st grade, never could get to the airport, difficulty was ridiculous. Thanks for posting, interesting glitch👍🏼😎

I used the game genie to beat this game.

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!! That is the worst!

Funnily enough, the exact same thing happened to me the first time I beat Shredder. I'm assuming it's some kind of issue with the damage values and Shredder's health. The game thinks you killed Shredder but in reality he still has health left. Had a redemption session the same night and beat him again without that glitch.

4:28 considers shooting NES

Well.... You _did_ beat him....

Never seen this glitch before even after beating it for the first time in 1992 with Game Genie . Yeah I cheated so what but if you played this back then you know how hard this game is.

the look of betrayal when you realized it was a glitch.

I could see the pain in your eyes at the end.

OMG, I can't believe I never saw this video! That look on your face. Hatch. Feels bad, man.

I beat this game multiple times, on emulator, on my Dendy and on my NES, but I've never encountered anything like that! Old video games never cease to amaze.

This is an awesome game! I finally got to play the arcade version and...I like the nes version waaaaay more.

Man, I grew up with the nes and didn't start loving video games until the sega and super nes for these reasons.

oh no! mut technically u won
