TMNT vs. Turtles in Time
 

Which arcade game is better? You decide! :o:tcry::tcool:

Turtles in Time, I grew up with it and it's just a classic beat 'em up. The SNES version is the definitive version. I think TMNT is underrated to an extent, though. I really enjoyed playing most of the chapters. It was a time in my life where things were pretty quiet, so I spent many nights just sitting at home and playing the game. The one thing that I felt bogged it down was the fight sequences - they were too repetitive and each one was too long. But overall I really enjoyed the game and the way it seemed inspired by Prince of Persia.

Turtles in Time because I have it at my local movie theater, and after seeing Bay Turtles, I beat the game with Raphael!

Ahh, you play the Arcade version. If you like that you should get the SNES version. I'm assuming you know what a SNES is, lol. You seem informed about the 80s and 90s hence I expect so. Shame it was never released for the wii virtual console.

Well done on completing the game! Especially with Raphael - he's the fastest turtle but he has the poorest weapon and takes the most damage.

Ahhh man :lol:

I have totally misread this man. You are comparing Turtles in Time to the original arcade game. For some reason I read it as TiT vs the TMNT movie game from '07.

That's two things misread in thirty minutes, shows how tired I am lol. But yes, I really enjoying the first Arcade game. I completed it on MAME .Still prefer TiT, though.

I don't have a SNES, but there's ROMS out there! If only Virtual Console hade it so I could play it on the WII U Gamepad! Yes, I'm posting on the Wii U Internet Browser! LOL!

Thats OK, and yes I agree!

Hahah, well I didn't wanna say ROMs because of legal issues on here. But yes, there's that.

Glad to hear you enjoy your Wii U. What games have you got? I will read your reply next time I log on. Talk soon little buddy :)

I have like to many to count!

TMNT arcade game. It was the only TMMT game that I played to the finish. Never got to play Turtles in Time.

As an arcade title, the first one beats TiT, but TiT on SNES beats the original arcade title. So I voted for TMNT, though I prefer the upgraded version of TiT to it.

I like Turtles in Time the best, Cause of it's imaginative levels.

Unfortunately they can't re-release the game due to licessing issues, both for the game as a whole but for it's soundtrack too (reason why they had to change it for the remake)

Yea, I heard it was something like that. Thanks for the confirmation. It's something like because it was made by Konami and then Ubisoft owned the rights, yes?

Both are extremely memorable arcade machines, but I'm going to vote for the original. It holds a lot more memories for me, standing in the huge line at the arcade just waiting for the words "SHELL SHOCKED!" so I could get that much closer to my turn.


...my opinion may be slightly biased due to actually owning the machine now too :tlol:

i gotta say, i never have gotten the chance to play Turtles in Time at an arcade, as opposed to SNES. til this day, when i think "TMNT the arcade game", there is only one definitive arcade game and that is the 1989 version. By default, Id have to say TMNT 1989 one was the best.

Comparing just the arcade games, the original has always been such a blast for me to play. It's just a great romp through the Fred Wolf TMNT era with all the characters, villains, vehicles, and environments getting their own spotlights.

The original Arcade game.

Turtles in Time's best version is the SNES one. Now that one competes alongside the original Arcade game for the "Best TMNT game of all time" award.

I'd like to have seen the original Arcade game getting ported to SNES, though. Obviously the NES wasn't advanced enough to get a great port of it.

Two words: Sewer Surfin'.

I think that because the SNES version is better than the Arcade Version of TiT, it kind of makes it stale to me. But I still like the Arcade version. But I think TMNT arcade plays a little tighter and its a fantastic representation of Season one while TiT arcade isn't as good of a representation of a specific era of the classic TMNT cartoon.
