Ninja Turtles III

[ToTheNines]

no problem at all

[raphael_is_cool]

Yeah, Xbox Live Arcade is good for some classic games and I'm sure they'd stand to make a lot off any TMNT port (they've done one, so far) especially given 4 player online (or offline) co-op. I guess you could get loads of people to contact someone with regards to it.

I actually wish more classics were available on Playstation 3. It's the only one of the big three without a TMNT game for download -_-

Not that I have a PS3, but I have no system loyalty so I think PS3 shouldn't be left out.

Who wouldn't want to download the Manhattan Project and play it on PS3? Of course, it'd probably be on Wii instead, being an NES title.

I would like to post an observation: In the opening scene for Ninja Turtles III, the turtles are out on a beach. Leo is relaxing on a chair, Raphael is surfing in the water, and Michelangelo has on a inflatable innertube.

Here's my question and i apologize for being so random like this, but what would Donatello be doing during the Turtles' vacation?

Post your "what if" situation

[ToTheNines]

Sweet talking April over the Turtle-com.

Mine is Donatello using a metal detector for treasure..maybe a lost ninja turtle artifact that the 4 brothers don't know about...

That's pretty awesome man. And thanks for posting this. I had no idea BOR could be modded (though I guess that's not too surprising). Someone needs to make the biggest most awesome TMNT game ever with this.

Nice sprite edit too.

Well, there is a Margarita glass next to the TV when Shredders talking, mabey he was getting wasted

[DonatelloDomeHead31]

Holy Pizza, I just remember seeing that. it's visable when the tv screen is shown. thanks for pointing that out.

And, not to mention, one of the hardest Turtles games in existence...I've owned it for fifteen years and have only managed to beat it once.

Damn that Super Shredder.

Funny thing, I think out of the 4 of them, TMNT 3 is the easiest. But then again, I have to use the 7 lives code, only because 3 lives isn't enough and you don't get enough oppertunities for 1ups. The Special movies make the bosses a cinch.

[DonatelloDomeHead31]

Funny you should mention the special moves each of the turtles perform. My question to everyone is: who has the best special move? I would have to say Leonardo because he spins around whenever surrounded.

Well that's the thing. If you use the seven lives code, then all of the challenge is thrown out the window. The hard part is making it through the last few levels, beating both Tokka and Rhazar, beating Krang, and then beating Shredder directly afterwards...With limited lives and continues.

I always thought it was either Leo or Don. I remember back when I had a working NES everyone either played with Don or Leo. On occasion someone wanted Raph, but No one chose Mikey because it was really easy to miss when you used his special move.

[DonatelloDomeHead31]

Remind me someone: what exactly was Michelangelo's special move? I know Leo spun around, Donatello did a rolling attack, and Raphael did a Drill Move...but What did Mikey do?

[Magdolin]

Mikey flew with his weapons and while he flew, he would kick his feet.

[Kendamu]

Wrong game. That's the 2k3 game, I think.

Mikey sprang off of his hands doing this mule-kick kind of thing but he would fly in an upward arc across the screen while doing it.

[odupianist]

Goonga's right on that one. It was like a backwards handspring, kangaroo mule kick thingy lol. The "Eat Feet" move is from the 2k3 games.

Yeah and if the Boss or enemy moved back a bit you were screwed. I think Mikey should have had a better special move. Maybe something that involved his nunchucks instead of his feet.

[Ecto Jedi]

Am I the only one who feels those special moves sort of ruined the challenge of boss fights? In TMNT II: The Arcade Game, each boss battle was an exercise in technique, persistence and patience. In Manhattan Project, as long as you kept jamming the A and B buttons, you could manhandle most of the bosses without much hassle.

[shuriken]

Not really. I thought it was cool to the four a bit more diversity in terms of moves. Also you have to remember that it took a little life bar awayand you had to use it sparingly. I mean sure that doesn't mean sh*t once you put the Konami code but then why the hell would you put it in the first place if you wanted a challenge? Not directed to anyone in particular...
