This version of TMNT was the peak.

[@Megumi_Bandicoot]

*Sirs, tell them that Zog fought bravely, for his comrades, for the republic... FOR VICTORY!!*

[@rockmanmix6242]

Sad that he died in the comics and 2012 too

[@TenshiFoxx]

The subtlety of the change in tone for this track was *everything* What was once a fast, exciting track reserved only for your greatest enemy has become a somber, yet still intense song. The final showdown is upon you, everything around you is burning, and it's in the flames that this long journey is going to come to an end. God these games were underrated.

[@The_D_ray]

Poor Zog... ...he lived and died in a lie. A war that was never needed...

[@lilwhiteboi339]

This music is also heard after Zog sacrifices himself.

[@jayjones1964]

Leonardo: It really was an honor to have Zog on our side, he was a true warrior.

[@Majo_Ellen]

I miss Zog. What makes me sadder is that he died for naught, Shredder still survived.

[@jeremiahnapier2516]

@@Majo_Ellen but at least he didn't revived permanently, instead of revealing himself to audience, like in the series.

[@cristopherpenaloza7546]

this trilogy of game its underrated

[@Nicksolo85]

I remember hearing him say "I SHALL DISPATCH YOU TO HELL!" or something like that.

[@Gradioactive4]

R.I.P Zog :'( The Triceratian Republicans would be honorable of an courageous warrior.

[@bobjabobja522]

F Zog :_(

[@seanphillips3348]

Reminds me of "Be In the Mirror" from Tekken 2. The final boss in that game and in this game both have sad music...

[@jiazji]

You'd assume that this track would be guitars shredding like the others but it's just this extremely sombre starting but triumphant theme and it's so good it genuinely caught me off guard when i first got to this phase

[@robertmatthews338]

What a lovely piece.

[@PomniTADC1998]

fighting shredder in the fire stage

[@BiriBiri925]

Pure gold

[@Davidgimez1016]

Favorite final BOSS theme number 6

[@joker112684]

For some reason this song really suited the situation when I fought first fought Shredder. It's pretty cool

[@TinyDrew5]

0:11-0:38 1:18-1:24 sound like the sad parts of this theme tune. Poor Zog for his brave sacrifice.

[@MrEmperorCJ]

This is the final boss theme, right?

[@The_D_ray]

Yes!

[@Dimon12321]

For clarification, you hear this only when fighting Shredder's phase 2 in Episode 11-7. Phase 1 of 11-7, Episodes 6-6 and 6-8 use regular Shredder theme

[@Majo_Ellen]

Doesn't the opening part remind anyone of the "Terminator" for a brief moment though? ... Or was that just me?

[@3rdworldvictimyouvebeenlie817]

True man.

[@ardonic7671]

I dont know why but it reminds me of red alert 3.....Amazing!!!!!

[@shredderorokusaki3013]

I WLL DESTROY THE TURTLES!

[@RoyalHustler09]

I think he did say that.

[@RoyalHustler09]

Mega Shredder was a Mutant. A Giant Mutant at that. Why they call him that on this game I have no idea. Still love the music to this. Awesome.

[@cyberninjazero5659]

That version of Mega Shredder was made years later. In this game it just means the new stronger body they made for Shredder after he Blew up at the TCRI

TMNT 2 Battle Nexus - Mega Shredder (Japanese Version🇯🇵)

[@RoyalHustler09]

Quick Questions. Why was this rated T for Teen when the first and third game was pretty much intense like this one? Plus there was no profanity from the game.

[@UltraUltimatium]

RoyalHustler09 some of the dialogue was actually really “intense” for an E10-rating

[@dontegraves5051]

​@@UltraUltimatium The E10+ rating did not exist when Battle Nexus was developed and released. Donkey Kong JungleBeat, Shadow the Hedgehog as well as TMNT III: Mutant Nightmare were among the first games to receive this rating as it wasn't implemented until March 2005.

[@Nicksolo85]

Why did they call him Mega Shredder? I never got that

[@user-ge8sm2ox3r]

Because he has big ass

[@The_D_ray]

​@@user-ge8sm2ox3r Mmmmh... K?
