Turtle Differences in each game

Alright, so I've watched reviews and read guides on my favorite Ninja Turtle Games (Which are the three for NES, Turtles in Time, Hyperstone Heist, and their Arcade counterparts) and I've noticed that just about all of them give out statistics for the turtles (which is usually just made up crap that they never tested before making their video or guide).

Like, for instince, some people will review TMNT2: The Arcade Game for NES and say that Leo is the strongest, Raph is the fastest, Mikey has the most defense, and Don has the longest reach. When actually (from my experience playing the game anyway) all four turtles are the exact same in that game and the only reason to choose any turtle is just to play as your favorite. They have the same speed, special moves, strength, defense, everything!

So I decided to start this project and actually find out how different each Turtle is in each game, what makes each one unique and what advantage they have over the other turtles in the specific game.

I'm going to be making damage charts to show strength, as well as picture and video evidence of speed, range, and defense (Although I've never once noticed any turtle having better defense than any other turtle in any game).

I'm going to be starting this project off with TMNT2: The Arcade Game for NES. I'm not sure if I'll do the first game on NES, but I might.

I'm off to test Leonardo's stuff and make a damage chart for him! I'll post my findings when I'm done!
