I like Radical Rescue because it's got a similar structure to Super Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony of The Night, forcing you to think and explore, not just thump on the bad guys. You have to use all of the individual Turtles powers to succeed, which gives you more of a team feeling too. I also like to think of Radical Rescue as the original NES game done right, without ridiculously impossible difficulty (it's still a tough game, but do-able).

I still think the ultimate TMNT game would be a Grand Theft Auto type 'sandbox' game where you could run around New York doing all kinds of missions or just goofing off.

I really enjoy that game as well. I know a lot of people were turned off by starting out with only mikey but I think it's really cool that you have to rescue your brothers to not only progress but to beat the game. Although I wouldn't even call it tmnt (nes) dones right, it is a very under-rated game.
