I think the Nick AS Brawl is looking like a faithful attempt to integrate her into a fighting game while keeping true to her character. She does some attack moves, but she just about always uses a prop like the handheld mic (which charges up?), a rolling video camera or a boom mic (from what I can tell).
Honestly, it's what a lot of Turtle fans wanted to see in TMNT Smash Up, which was advertised as being a blend of Turtle-lore as opposed to based off one particular franchise yet ended up looking exactly like the Imagi film with 4Kids voices. The thought of April using "news room prop" attacks would have been viewed as a creative contribution, rather than just taking the conventional way out and making her a ninja-esque combatant.
