Very nice. Hard to improve on the first game outside of length, variety and difficulty, but heck, bring it on.

Very nice! That GBA is a surprising machine. I'm very impressed with the quality of those graphics.

Awesome. Looks like they've finally fixed the cutscenes too, lol.

they should include the original arcade game in the GBA game too

Although it would REALLY be nice, I don't think it's possible. :(
The GBA is not even able to do 100% faithful ports of snes games (most of the time, the color palettes are readjusted for the worse and the musics and sounds are always worse on GBA).
And since the arcade is basically more powerful than the SNES, I don't think Konami can really make a nice port to the GBA... unless they include a port of the TMNT2:Arcade Game from the NES version. That's would work, but the screen would be smaller because of the GBA.
In best cases, Konami can perhaps reencode the TMNT Arcade game for the GBA and include it in Battle Nexus, but they probably don't have time to do that...

So many restrictions, yet so many desires. Grr.

if a port of Street Fighter Alpha 3 (with all characters plus more) is possible then a port of an old arcade game from 1989 is definitley possible

Jonatello, Street Fighter Alpha 3 was ported from arcades to GBA, granted, but have you actually seen/played the GBA version of SFA 3? The graphics are WAAAAY toned down compared to the original arcade version. I will admit that Capcom did a superb job with the animation in the GBA version, and even the graphical translation is commendable, but it does not look nearly as clean and sharp as the arcade version.

The old 1989 Turtles arcade game COULD be ported to the GBA, just as SFA 3 was ported to GBA, but the question isn't whether or not it can be ported. The real question is would it be worth it to port it? Would it look good enough on the GBA to port it? Would it be 4 player link-up compatible? How long would it take to reencode the graphics to GBA standards? These are things that we, as gamers, don't have to think about doing, but as game designers and business men and women, they have to do what is most proficient.

Unfortunately, Konami's proficiency probably won't allow for us to see a GBA version of the original arcade game.

As a side note, I think a GBA port of the original TMNT arcade game would look very good on the GBA, but still not as clean and sharp as the original arcade game.

of course it won't look as clean and sharp as the original arcade game because the GBA has a much lower resolution

By the looks of some of these shots, it seems we'll indeed be getting a multiplayer mode. It seems to be some sort of race...

Warning! Blatant advertising in background!

I was hoping for co-op, but I guess it's better than nothing.

-->> ..gee..who knew they got the Fox Box in Triceraton space.. :dead:

lol..

Cool a race game. That should be fun. Hopefully there will be lots of tracks. That is some SERIOUS advertising there... They'll probably get rid of that for the outside of the US releases since the Fox Box is only in the US. They might change it to Fox Kids or Jetix for the UK since that's where TMNT airs there.

They could easily port the original arcade to the GBA especially since they couldn't use the sound from the original in the first place. The GBA has excellent resolution actually. The image would be very crisp. Almost arcade perfect except for no sound but that's the same for the console versions anyway.

This should be a lot of fun. I can't wait!

Is this coming out the same day as the console version? Like last time?

The game looks rad and in Game Informer I read that the bosses will be as big as buildings.And I think the game will have 4 player multi-player which'll be even radder! :D There's also gonna like 60 levels which should make it so you can't beat the game in a day.Krang'll :khappy: be happy with the game. :goofygri:

Cool. That looks tons better compaired to number 1.

It does look better than the first one. More sprites to play with. :kgrin:

Second that. Hope Drako has an appearance--always wanted to rip him. :)
