Is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness canon to the Mirage TMNT?

[sdp]

This was the first turtle media out there so even if it wasn't mirage canon, it has many influences because the only thing TMNT that existed back then was mirage so obviously it was going to have many similarities.

How has the RPG influenced the series? I can only think of the post apocalyptic future of 2012 and the current run of the IDW comic allegedly. That's not much of an impact. But from what I know people who liked RPGs did love the game, which is why it continued even after they lost the TMNT license.

Is there any site that has a summary of the "lore" of the RPG? I'd be interested in reading more of it besides the few synopsis.
