He's had over ten crossovers with the TMNT. As well as two toys released as TMNT figures.

And for good measure, Mirage published his book for a little bit.

I want a level that is the setup of the old sewer lair toy in the early ninties, and the Technodrome. In SSBB, they had a lot of the old school levels like Mr. Game and Watch.

But the TMNT didn't appear in the cartoon of another comic book character (at most got a reference of some kind) while Usagi appeared in both the old cartoon and the new one. To many viewers Usagi is a TMNT universe character be that actually the case or not. He also appeared in one of the TMNT games already.

Besides he'd be a great character for a fighting game the neccessary samurai in a mix of a ninja characters. XD

And... ToTheNines... what do you mean so common? Did I mispell it? If so... eh... whatever.

There's no "L" in Utrom. A lot of people mispell it for some reason. This isn't Ultraman after all.

Actually 3. Space Usagi, Normal Usagi, and Usagi in the 2K3 line.

I rarely point out spelling errors, but I was just wondering why a ton of people have been spelling it with an L.

Dude, you just made me claw my eyes out. I was hoping to forget about that show forever.

Space Usagi's a separate character. So by that matter, Gennosuke should be counted.

On the subject of Utroms with random "L"s in their names.... I don't get it either. It's not even a matter of hardcore fans versus casual fans or, non-fans, because I've seen all three spell it that way. There was also that dude in the 1up video that insisted "Utrominator" was a misspelling and that their should have been an L in it. Then there are people like my co-worker (a casual fan, mostly of the old stuff), who spells and pronounces it with an L, despite constant correction. It's weird. Is there something with the word that I'm not getting that is in an association? I was thinking about Marvel's Ultron for a bit, but not everybody is familiar with that character, and they're nothing alike.

I guess people are just combining the words "Ultra" and "Terminator". But he's obviously an Utrom, so i dunno.

But what about the thousands of people that call Utroms, Ultroms?

*Spitfire* · 07-23-2009, 08:28 PM

Well he has Usagi in his name and is the same character so by my count he counts. Gen is a completely different character all together.

As for the debate of the Utrom spelling it's spelt Utrom in the comic so that's the official spelling in my book.

Seriously? I always thought it was Ultrom but looking at the old comic guide on the official site it does say UTROM and yet sometimes when I read Utrom it looks like Ultrom.

So my bad... I seriously always thought it was ULTROM with a silent L rather than UTROM like how it's said. Heh...

You wouldn't be the first to make the mistake... the problem is finding the genesis of it... you know, why so many people think that it's got an L in it...

Who really cares? That kind of thing exists for everything out there, it's not a big deal. It's especially less of a deal when it's someone who isn't familiar with the comics, or the new toon. The majority of people who grew up with the Ninja Turtles don't even know wtf an Utrom is. It's like people who insist on calling a Famicom a Famicon. Correct them and move on.

It isn't a big deal, no. It's just weird how it's so common, even with those that are familiar with the comics and 2K3. Common lingual faux pas interest me, regardless of what it's associated with.

And the katakana for Famicom spells Famikon, so it's not wholly incorrect >.> But I see your point.

I will get the game to play as Fugitoid. I have always wanted to play as him in a video game. Although I hacked my Wii, I will still buy it to help out the TMNT franchise. Also, I'm surprised no one had talked about playing as the Purple Dragons.
