When is Konami going to release the original arcade games of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time for PlayStation 3 on PlayStation Network? I want konami to release the original arcade games of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time for PlayStation 3 on PlayStation Network.

You'll find out when if they ever decide to. They're not on the Wii VC either so I wouldn't count on it happening anytime soon, if ever. Thanks to viacom, alot of sh*t has come to a hault.

That would definitely be cool, but...couldn't tell ya if any plans are in the works. ;) If they do release 'em, I hope the games are unaltered. I don't like how the XBLA version of the first game has that new, crappy character select screen.

Konami are soon to be releasing their X-Men arcade game to both XBLA and PSN. Hopefully it means more of their (and Capcom's) cool arcade beat 'em ups will be released soon.

But yeah, that Viacom deal certainly messed up any cool future for the Turtles.

Actually the Viacom deal could help us get ports of the old TMNT games. Especially if the new Viacom TMNT has more traits in common with the 80s cartoons and include the likes of Bebop, Rocksteady and Krang.

Furthermore Viacom has the money to throw around on really beefing up a release of the old arcade games. Such as getting the original voice actors from the 80s cartoon to reprise their roles in a new voice over recording of the game. Of course I'd be more than happy with just a straight up port of the original audio and replacing music is my biggest gripe with ports of TMNT games thus far.

Of course Viacom has a lot of properties and unless TMNT proves particularly successful for them, they may never see the value in porting the old games. Ubisoft still having the rights to produce games might be another snag though. Sure they were able to work out getting a port of TMNT NES and the first arcade game in 2007 but such deals are not that common. If Konami had the rights to TMNT again it would be a lot more likely for us to see ports of the old games.

My point is they have no interest in doing anything with the turtles until their show is out, & even then I suspect they will want to focus on THEIR turtles exclusively. That's why we're not seeing the other toys that were to be re-released, or new comics, or anything that's actually fun. Just some cut and paste clothing.

Right. Because you obviously work at Viacom and know what they want.
