Ah, not many know about this gem! If only there had been more games. More accessible ones.

Man if Usagi had been marketed right he could have been as big as Turtles. I have a feeling Stan chose not to because he wanted full creative control over his character.

...

This wasn't already well-known?

Wow, this was news to me. Thanks for posting :-)

Patraw 01-05-2011 09:38 AM

Nope, Ninjimister, if wasn't known to me. This is the first I've ever heard of it. Maybe somebody shared its existence on the Technodrome Forums in the past, but, if so, I must have missed it.

I love that game

John Pannozzi 01-05-2011 10:17 AM

On a semi-related note (Usagi in video games), I know Usagi appeared in the console/PC version of TMNT 2: Battle Nexus (as an oppenent in Battle Nexus mode), but did he appear in the Game Boy Advance version of that game?

Aside from being mentioned at the official UY site and the UY Wiki page, I don't see the game getting much publicity. We've very briefly mentioned it on here, so I'm not surprised that it's news to a lot of people.

My thoughts exactly.

miyam0t0usagi 01-05-2011 06:29 PM

heh that game would have been great, its got that great retro look to it.

They did try to make an Usagi cartoon, but Fox shot it down.Why they hanged Usagi's voice from his 80's voice is beyond me.(i think his 80's voice was always best)And yes this is where the toy comes from lol

The toy derives from the comic, which is what the show is based on.

When Usagi was under Mirage studios, Stan made a Space Usagi story arc.
