Just give me a good $15 brawler.
 

I know a lot of people (read: fans) have amazing awesome ideas as to where TMNT games could go and how there could be so much depth and whatnot. That's great and all and I certainly would never want to get in the way of such a great game, but that's not what I really want.

What I want is just a pretty cool $10-$15 Ninja Turtles game that can be downloaded on XBLA or PSN like Castle Crashers, Shank, Scott Pilgrim, Voltron, Gotham City Imposters, etc. Heck, go oldschool and make it a sidescrolling brawler!

Each Turtle would have his strengths and weaknesses like they'd try to do with the arcade games. Familiar locales and characters would be used. There'd be swarms of enemies to go through with a pretty decent way to string your hits together. The bosses would be challenging and building on strategies learned throughout gameplay. And, heck, maybe a tiny bit of platforming can sneak in once in awhile.

Think of it as the 2007 GBA game on a console-level scale with HD graphics (preferably sprites) and some online multi-player. It'd be a good way to waste half an hour and it'd be extremely affordable. Viacom could get whoever they want to put out whatever trash tie-in game they want for $60 per disc after that and I wouldn't care because I have my little gem of a game that I could play when I'm in the mood for some TMNT gaming.

What would you say to a graphical upgrade to the Game Boy title Mikey's Radical Rescue?

I would play it, but Radical Rescue was never as high on the charts for me as a the straightforward brawlers.

I know it's not, but it'd give us a game that was a bit more than a typical button mashing brawler.

Subtract 5 dollars from that and I'm down.

Reshelled was honestly enough for me as a Turtles game. Simple and to the point.

I do like a good half-hour game!

("Half -hour" being defined as "about how quickly I can get through the game once I'm extremely skilled with the controls and patterns.")

That'd work for me, but it'd have to be available on the Wii too.

You have my vote, the 2007 GBA was the last decent turtles game, and a bloody great game in it's own right.

Even a HD sprite version of Turtles in Time with its original soundtrack and new moves and additional levels would be brilliant.

I think an awesome idea like this would fit very well for an iPhone or iPad!
