It's crazy how this game released with little to no fanfare. Back when it was still an arcade cabinet I was hoping for a home console release since I pretty much had no time to actually go to the arcades where the machines were at, but all these years later when Shredder's Revenge already beat the pants off of it, yeah it's best to just wait to see it at a bargain bin for like five bucks. As I've heard the voice actors rerecorded their lines, so I guess that explains why they all sound phoned in.

Thanks for the detailed memories and explanations on the game! I did not know about the re-recorded vocals so that does make sense.

Rob Paulsen voiced Donatello in the 2012 iteration of TMNT. He's also the OG Raph.

People are being too nice to this game. If you ask anyone who knows me to describe my top two interests, everyone would say TMNT and video games.(Especially beat 'em ups) Unfortunately, this game is hot garbage. I've seen several excuses, like "It's seven years old" or "It's an arcade game" or "It's made for kids." Guys, you are more than welcome to your opinion, but this game plays like a worse version of Turtles in Time: Re-shelled, which is fifteen years old, based on an ARCADE game for KIDS that is thirty three years old. I love the 2012 TMNT show but as perfectly stated in the video, take the IP out of this game and it's awful. It was a cash grab as an arcade game and it's an even bigger one as a home release. At $30 I find it difficult to recommend this to ANYONE. 3/10 is being generous and that's ONLY for the IP and the diehard fans. If it takes you (at least it does me) longer to earn the money to buy the game, than it does for you to complete the game, there's an issue.
@Ogles6 ай бұрын
I am fairly confused when I see places like IGN give it a 6/10. There just isn't much game here at all and what is there is VERY basic. And I agree with your statement, if I takes me longer to earn the money than to finish the game there is a problem. Thanks for the input man!

reshelled was cool and played fine...controls were spot on, graphics were clean and it's fun. It doesn't matter how long it takes to beat a game to value its worth. Replayablitity is a major factor in buying games. That said this is not just an arcade game, it's a win tickets arcade game. It's not that great but you better expect it to be short and not made by people like Nintendo or wayforward.

I checked the Hong Kong Nintendo eshop and Hong Kong PSN hoping to get it for a few bucks cheaper but its not listed in either services. I did check one online shop in Hong Kong and they're selling the ps4, ps5 and switch versions for $32 Canadian dollars. Probably about $20 bucks American. This store only has the UK version in stock.

Bought and beat the game twice and yeahhh..def not worth the $30....$15 at most but i agree $10 wouldve been a much better price. I like to get trophies and this'll be an easy platinum so thats the only reason im really replaying it. Unlocked hard mode so now I can play with my teenage kids and have an hour of fun with them plus get my final trophy so theres that.

Nintendo is piling out too many games and I think it's been more quantity than quality here lately 😢. Every week there's 30 plus games. It has definitely lost its old school feel for me and now it's all about money. Extra DLC, amiibo cards and figurines. I quit when physical games become extinct.
