Since we had a tabletop RPG already having some popularity, it clearly would have made sense to release one, especially around the mid-90s as the genre was popular and the TMNT brand was fading, in need of a boost. In this game, you would start by choosing one Turtle. Splinter would have much more of a role in an RPG, giving out important advice and also being a master of the many tricks that the Turtles have learned. Each Turtle can pick up special attacks as they go along, such as the Dagger, Kama, Shriuken, and many others. The Turtle Van could be used to speed up ground travel, while the Turtle Blimp could instantly travel to a number of predetermined destinations. Many items still must be picked up along the way either in the overworld or during battles. There will be a total of nine main sections, each with a special boss battle. The following bosses/locations would be used in order: Dirtbag and Groundchuck in the park, Scratch and Hotspot in a midtown setting, Rocksteady and Bebop in the slum, the Rat King in the sewers, Leatherhead in the river, Baxter Stockman in the industrial factory, Karai and the Ultimate Ninja in the dojo in the city's Japanese enclave, Granitor and General Traag at the military base, and finally Krang and Shredder in the Techndrome in Dimension X that can only be accessed after you have Donatello and the equipment necessary for the Portable Portal Generator. Pizza would still function as HP boosters. Remember, the arcade versions of the games did have some RPG elements thrown into it, based upon the success of the player(s) ability without getting defeated. And based upon the percentage of the game you complete, you can unlock new allies such as other Turtles, April, Casey, Ray Fillet, and Mondo Gecko.

What would make this RPG in the spirit of the beat 'em ups, is that upon reaching a "Ninja Showdown" in each of the nine areas, you will need to complete a side-scrolling level, and is important since not only its a test for HP, but you can also pick up special items that are not found on the overworld. For example, the industrial factory showdown would consist of Mousers and Robot Monsters leading to Baxter at the end. So, that would be my idea for my dream TMNT game.
