Next time try to use Leo's super at close range before the fists spread out. Even if blocked the chip damage is insane. Or at least that's how I remember it from about 20 years ago. 😁

Fun fact Blockbuster Video had a competition back in the mid 90's. The games included TMNT tournament fighters, Clay fighters and NBA Jam

[@X-Cactus]

Thanks for that info

[@SeanBjerke]

I actually entered this when I was in 6th grade and won for my hometown in Massachusetts. The winners got to go to the next round and play 1v1 against another local winner in NBA Jam. I lost in this round so I don’t know what happened next, but it was a fun experience!

[@jasonulloa]

The one I entered had TMNT Tournament Fighters, NBA Jam, and Donkey Kong Country. I didn't make it past the first round as I had a poor showing in TMNT Fighters that day.

[@rcblazer]

The way the Super Meter works in Tournament Fighters feels like the AGGRESSOR from Mortal Kombat Trilogy. You gain meter by hitting your opponent, and you gain even more meter if the opponent is blocking all your attacks.

[@Ghx1337]

I was hoping Max would end up fighting an Armaggon in this video and immediately realize the funny shark's a cheap piece of shiet. I was not disappointed.

[@GELTONZ]

This is why they have an Easy Rage Quit button!

[@pyromaniacforhire]

Armaggon is SOOOOO busted!

[@ReaverPrime]

Oh lord, the memories!! I remember playing this for hours and hours with my brothers. Abusing the hell out of Shredder's Aura Crusher, Chromedome's Chrome Spark and long limbs, and Wingnut's Moon Buster. Some of the supers can do some pretty nutty things too. Like Wingnut's Mad Spectre. Placed just right, it can outright kill a full health bar. If even the slightest bit of damage is on before, Leo's super will kill if you get enough hits before dizzy. Chromedome's super at point blank range will kill if any damage is on.

[@CarbonRollerCaco]

Yeah, do Mad Spectre right above a fool so both directions hit them and they're deader than Shredder without a head… er.

[@HellfireComms]

Been a really good year for the Turtles huh?

[@benmalsky9834]

2023 is going to be even better with the release of Mutant Mayhem!

[@goranisacson2502]

It is so wild seeing this game played legitimately, after I only ever played it on emulator and against myself and friends. We were just kids messing around, no clue what we were doing, so these wild strats and cheesy infinites, seeing just how unbalanced the game really is... .... If I had known earlier I would have been INVINCIBLE back then!

Apparently, there are characters in this game with safe, invincible dp's which is hilarious. It still blows my mind that there aren't a dozen TMNT fighting games.

Man I love these games so much. This was my childhood!! Easily some of my favorite content to watch when it’s time for the turtles. So happy they are back!!

[@kaybee1459]

I remember playing this game on Super Nintendo. The super moves works differently than other fighting games. Here is how: 1- The more you attack your opponent, the more you get close to full super. 2- By "attack" either you succeeded to hit your opponent or your opponent blocks your attacks, you'll get the full super buy just hitting your opponent. 3- Your super can go reversely. If you're not hitting your opponent for a while, you'll see your super is getting lower. Hope that helps. :)

[@ThePhoenixScribe]

That's interesting, the super system is a like "Tug of War." That's pretty neat honestly.

[@SBaby]

Also, the lower your health is, the faster it increases.

[@Artzei]

While the collection is good, but i myself do have some personal nitpicks about it, at least as of right now, until Digital Eclipse and Konami comes and fixes some of these things: - No in-game reset option - No option for that Game Boy DMG green screen for the GB games. (While i have nothing against the BW screen, it's still nice to have some options) - Absolutely unbearable lag on both arcade games when trying to play them in the Online mode. (Tournament Fighters SNES and apparently also Hyperstone Heist are okay, what i've heard anyways). Those are just some of the things i'm not particulary fond of in the collection as is.

[@NotTheWheel]

[@drcgamer6]

Max, just so you know... The super meter is completely offensive based. You build it by landing hits (blocked or not), you lose a bit of the meter if you take a hit. So basically, you build the super faster by not getting hit, and attacking your opponent as much as possible.

I only got to play the NES version where Shredder has this a throw where it looks like he's tickling the Turtles. Sometimes when I'm wrestling with my kids, I'd pull out that move.

[@watthell]

I suck so bad at TF haha. I literally set the computer to 0 and still got my ass kicked on the 3rd fight (Wingut). That bastard blocked everything and seemed to know every move I was trying to make. Managed to button mash into the Cyclone move (a few times) that Leo does - Wingnut ducked under it everytime and crouch punched me out of the move. I can't even imagine how bad I was at the game when I was a kid. I had the SNES version, and it's the only one I've played out of the collection so far. I watched my brother get his ass kicked on the NES and Genesis version also, so I'm assuming it's going to be just as bad for me.

[@SBaby]

9:43 - I think your super move builds up faster when you're lower on health. Chrome Dome was gaining Super as fast as you were until his health dipped below half, then it started going up faster, and around a quarter, it started skyrocketing. And when Mikey got low on health, same thing.

[@Luminethereploid]

If you've ever noticed for every version of tournament fighters, there's a different turtle on each cover. Leo's on the NES version, Don's on the SNES version, and Raph's on the Genesis version.
