TMNT (NES) - Up on Virtual Console

donatellomn · 04-02-2007, 02:22 PM

Yes, I've been waiting for the NES TMNT game to be available. The last 2 Mondays I expected to see, but at least it's now finally up. I just started playing it. I last played it in 1990 I think. I never could get past a certain point. I hope to go further in this game now.

Why is this 600 points?

NES games are 500 points, aren't they?

EDIT: That is such ********. Why is this game more expensive than evey other NES game? I only have 500 points so Im going to have to spend another $10 to get it. Wtf...

Yeah, it's messed up. I don't know if Konami or Ubi-Soft is doing this but whoever it is needs to be punched in the face. It's a fun game but by no means better then a lot of the other NES games on there like Zelda, Mario, etc, and they are only $5.

PS: Does anyone know of any cheats for this game besides the ones on GameFAQS? is there any kind of invincibility or infinite lives cheat? I have this on Wii so I can't use GameGenie.

I would guess it's more because it's a licensed game. Isn't it the first licensed game for the VC?

Yeah that's true, it must be it.

It's just they set the prices and then they spring this on you. It is just another dollar, but you have to buy $10 worth at a time...it's just annoying.

I remember getting this game when I got my NES, way back when I was 4 (and a very young TMNT fan). I remember getting frustrated because it was so hard, and I never got very far (those bombs in the dam? ugh!). But now I'm determined to pick this up and finish it.

Thanks for the heads up!

Until today I had never gotten to Rocksteady....so the dam levels and underwater level were all new to me, haha.

I had 3 turtles with full power, but I could not get through those pink, shocking plants....it's just insane.
