So I picked this up on eBay about a month ago, and it finally arrived from the UK; thankfully, it cost less than $10 US.

Now, before you start freaking out and wondering about the content, it's just the Japanese version of Radical Rescue. No hacks to the title screen, no graphics hacking, not even the choice of starting as any Turtle other than Mikey. It's just plain old Japanese TMNT 3 (I know because I own the Japanese version of Radical Rescue and I compared them side-by-side - and no I'm not going to sell one now that I technically have two of them).
Still, it's a nice curiosity. I'd seen a few TMNT bootleg games before, but they were all for Famicom, which I don't currently have the ability to play. Thanks to GB being region-free, I finally have a bootleg Turtle game.
