Finally somebody in this forum mentions Mad Dog McMutt.

I have 99.8% of all TMNT characters memorized in my mind, so I was bound to say everyone eventually.

There's reports going around that the game will be released during Q3 this year for PS5, XBox (Series X, XBox One) and PC. :-?

If it’s true, pity there’s no Switch version. :( PC & PS5 then.

Not even Ps4? I hope thats not true, not many people even have Ps5's yet and i want this game to sell as best as it could :ohwell:
I'll be playing it on the PC because of a friend of mine to play online anyway but still.

Pardon my french, but there's no ****ing way this game doesn't come out on Nintendo Switch. Streets of Rage 4 / Scott Pilgrim had a console wide release and I suspect the same for TMNT.

It could be them just being coy ... but when asked directly on Twitter about a Switch version, they tweeted out the "pc and consoles" response. It's easier to ignore things fans don't want to hear, so I'm taking their quickness to respond with anything when asked that as positive news.

It's obviously going to come out on Switch and most platforms, stop jumping to conclusions, everyone.

I also find it hard to believe it won't come out on Switch at some point.
Still hoping for a PS4 release myself. :tsmile:

It will come to Switch, though it's possible it won't be one of the game's launch platforms if this report is accurate. It's a pixel art game... it can easily run on the Switch, maybe they just don't have the people to work on so many platforms at one time.

There's also the possibility that it's not included in this 'leak' because it could be digital-only on Switch, so there would be no case artwork for it in such a case. Many games only release digitally on Switch to avoid the greater costs due to the cartridges.

I'm pretty sure this game would run fine on a PS1... I'm sure it's coming out on all the modern platforms.

In that case I'm sure I'll be buying it twice whenever the inevitable Limited Run Games collector's edition gets announced in the 3-4 months post-digital release.

Nah, PS1/PSX would cut about every non-essential animation frame from the sprites.

I get the gist of what you are saying though. :twink:

I'll get this on PC & Switch alike, to have the option to play with different friends (assuming online multiplayer is an option) & portability.

I don't think it's a question of if the console is powerful enough to run it or not. To this day, The Disney Afternoon Collection still hasn't come out on Switch despite just being a collection of NES games. Granted, that was earlier on in the Switch's life cycle, before 3rd party devs were sure of how successful the Switch was going to be, but it still never did get a release even afterward.

But, ya, it really doesn't make sense to not have this come out on PS4 and Switch, but I wouldn't be totally surprised by such a dumb decision actually happening.

Well, if it doesn't come out on Switch, we can be sure that's because of legal reasons or money (as in, Nintendo won't offer them what Microsoft and Sony are offering them, or their deal with Sony and/or Microsoft incentivizes them to NOT put it on Switch). But if it's coming to PS5 then of course it'll be on PS4, too. That would be the most hilarious thing ever if something like this was a "PS5 Exclusive," on the Sony side. There would be absolutely no reason for that, for obvious reasons.

I hope they don't. I wont be able to resist a special edition physical release of this game...
Then again, scalpers might be too fast for me.

In that TwitterSpaces interview from last week, the developers stated that console ports were moreso the prerogative of the hardware companies, which I'm assuming is a vague way of saying exactly what you described.

This isn't the only game that's causing a resurgence of FW TMNT. There's the mobile game TMNT: Mutant Madness that is based on FW TMNT. All the playable characters are FW TMNT characters. They all have updated versions of the classic FW designs too.

lol nobody is playing Mutant Madness

Every time I try, it crashes my Kindle! :tlol:
