Take a look at this image I found while googling "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles":

This is the Genesis Version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Tournament Fighters from Japan. Way better than the Genesis Cover which shows Raphael fighting that Triceratops enemy.

Thought I'd pass this along and show everyone. Please comment.

You have to remember that the three U.S. Tournament Fighter games all followed the same theme, one of the turtles fighting an enemy, with their game covers (vs. Armaggon, Hothead, or Triceraton). While it might not be the most exciting looking art, it's decent and ties them all together.

I've never seen the Japanese cover till now, but it looks pretty cool.

Very cool. Do you have a larger image of that?

If I post the original image, it'll be bigger than the forum border. I had to tone it down, but if you google "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and search a few search pages, you'll find it.

Hmm, did you google the web text or images?

Ooh, thanks a bunch. Those turtle poses looked like they were based on the promo shots from the first movie. Very cool indeed, though I also like the American art scheme for this series.

Also, doesn't it look like the turtles on the cover from Ninja Turtles III; meaning, you can see the spots like in the 3rd movie.

It looks cool. Are the Japanese version the same? I've heard many Japanese video games are totally re-made before entering the Western world.
