Fave all-time TMNT Videogame
 

Well now that Arcade Attack is finally out and there are (so far) no other Turtle games announced, I can finally do this.

I can't fit all the choices of course, but if anyone has a choice that wasn't in the poll, be sure to post it.

Almost picked Turtles in Time Re-Shelled, but went with the arcade original instead.

After disregarding the bottom 6 I picked Turtles In Time for SNES. It was either that or Hyperstone Heist, which If it was longer and had a different selection of characters as bosses(come on no Bebop?!?!) it probably would have got my vote.

Turtles In Time was the cartoon and toy line thrown into the oven with an SNES cartridge. What was baked is probably the greatest representation of "Turtlemania" in game form.

SNES Turtles in Time. Somehow I just don't like the newer games as much...

TMNT 2: Battlenexus on Gamecube

Turtles in Time on the SNES. While the arcade is better in the aspect of harder difficulity, slightly better graphics and 4 player option I prefer the bosses in the SNES version along with the extra levels and extra music. It's only 2 player but it's easily as enjoyable as a 4 player TMNT game. I've yet to find a more enjoyable TMNT experience.

The following games are all amazing:

1) TMNT (Arcade)
2) TMNT IV: Turtles in Time (SNES)
3) TMNT II: The Arcade Game (NES)
4) TMNT III: The Manhattan Project (NES)
5) TMNT: Tournament Fighters (SNES)

i voted for the original arcade, the classic quality graphics and simple gameplay and awesome soundtrack (so many orchestra hits) and the little details such as verbal exchanges in game just does it for me. the soundtrack really sells it though, especially when it's outputted from arcade speakers at high bass levels and it really pumps the game up, and i couldn't enjoy the turtles in time soundtrack as much as i did this one

While I personally wouldn't say that Manhattan Project was the best one, it was definitely the most underrated TMNT game.

I also voted for SNES turtles in time. My second favorite would be TMNT 2: Battle nexus for the xbox. I loved playing as Karai :)

Best Turtles game for me is Turtles in Time for the Snes wish they would make more Ninja Turtle games like it.

top 5 from best to honorable mention:

1. Turtles in Time (SNES)
2. The Manhattan Project
3. The Hyperstone Heist
4. TMNT the movie game (GBA)
5. Arcade attack.

For me, it'll always be the original Turtle arcade. I dunno, I still like it better than the sequel.

Yeah, something about the graphics and gameplay of the original just scream vintage. I like how it is slightly harder to kill enemies in the original game since you have to rely more on jumpkicks and the perfectly timed two-button special attack rather than the super-effective combos and life-draining specials of Turtles in Time. I hardly even bother with jumping when I play Turtles in Time.

Totally Turtles in Time (first played on SNES, but the Arcade is awesome)

Prehistoric Turtlesaurus!

I'm going with TMNT III: Radical Rescue on Gameboy. Bashing hundreds of Foot Soldiers amused me when I was a kid, but that kind of shallow gameplay is a turnoff for me these days, which is why I didn't vote for any of the sidescrolling beat-em-ups. I like Radical Rescue because it's got a similar structure to Super Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony of The Night, forcing you to think and explore, not just thump on the bad guys. You have to use all of the individual Turtles powers to succeed, which gives you more of a team feeling too. I also like to think of Radical Rescue as the original NES game done right, without ridiculously impossible difficulty (it's still a tough game, but do-able).

I still think the ultimate TMNT game would be a Grand Theft Auto type 'sandbox' game where you could run around New York doing all kinds of missions or just goofing off.

TMNT 4 for the SNES will always be the best Turtles game of all-time. It's also the most adored and respected Turtles game of all time too. Ask anyone who was a Turtles fan back then, and this game will pop up almost immediately. It's quite a shame the quality and success of that game has YET to be replicated, even by remakes (here's looking at you Re-Shelled).

TMNT as a GTA-style game...hmm... It can work, but there's no doubt a lot of time, money and resources will be needed for that game to be a success. Unfortunately, the franchise's draw power is too weak to convince anyone to invest in such a game.

Honestly, I myself want a Tournament Fighters spiritual sequel, perhaps made by Capcom? Using the SF4 engine? Imagine the possibilities of THAT!

I just went with the game I played the most. Turtles in Time for the SNES.

As did I, TMNT III (NES).

Talk to me when you can pass the dam level on the first NES game, buddy. :P

I can, it's the level after the whole swimming thing that kills me.

Hey! I can get the place where the Beatles start playing lol

I need to challenge myself to see if I can still beat it.

Wow the SNES Turtles in Time got the most love.

My favourite Turtles Game, has to be the SNES Tournament Fighters, as it was such a good game. It felt so much like Street Fighter which I love as Street Fighter is my favourite game series. :)

I'm gonna go with Tournament fighters as well, for it's solid gameplay and great art direction.

TMNT 2: Battle Nexus. I couldn't tell exactly why, but it's been the most fun to play for me.

Also, the Arcade Turtles In Time (and the Re-Shelled for PS3, which I think did pretty well for what it is).

Turtles in Time, SNES.

Not the arcade version, not Re-Shelled.

Lots of great ones,but.....

Favorite: TMNT tournament fighters (snes)

Runner-up: TMNT2:Battle Nexus

(Man!! I wish a new game would come out for ps3)

It would be awesome if a game developer saw this thread and got the point that everyone wants a sequel. Turtles V: Something Something Retro. Done with the same style as TMNT IV, but with enhanced 32 bit sprites for slightly crisper video that would look better for todays HD tv's. Four player co-op on and off line. The ability to select additional charcters, possibly similar to the Lego games where as you encounter other characters you have the option to play as them. Incridible soundtrack done with same instruments and tech as the old games. All new levels, atleast 10-15 so it's longer than the old stuff. Keep it the '87 toon style. If someone made a game like this it would be #1 on this pole. I lack the skills and know how to pull it off so someone with skills better look at this thread.:tsmile:

turtles in time on the SNES
I like re-shelled as well, it's a fun time killer

For me its TMNT IV Turtles in Time SNES. The best!

I loved every version of Turtles In Time, but the SNES one felt like the complete experience it was meant to be.

I love Manhattan Project and agree it's very underrated.

I even liked the newer TMNT games but still haven't beaten Battle Nexus. I never got past Hun and those flamethrower guys late in the game. I think my copy has a glitch or something because eventually Hun just stops taking damage every time I play and like, five minutes later he's still invincible. Granted, I just whipped through it in a weekend and haven't picked it up in years, so maybe I'm just dumb and missed something crucial. Sure would be nice to beat that finally, if anybody knows what my dumb ass did wrong.

You forgot to add the NES TMNT 2 the Aracade game.

Been there. Done that. Strategy and respawning pizza make that game easy up to a certain point.

A little bit after this point is where I start to have some real trouble.

As for my favorite, I'l give you one hint:

Turtles II for NES and Turtles in Time for SNES. I also liked TMNT for PS2 actually.
