Turtles in Time Reshelled makes ScrewAttack's Top 10 Worst Reboots/Remakes

[BentonGrey]

This hardly seems appropriate. I haven't played through the entire game, having only played the demo, but it was a fun little button masher. The drama of the arcade version is gone, 'cause you can't really LOSE, but it certainly doesn't seem to deserve being on THAT list.

Forgot to add that I don't take stock in anything from Screw Attack, except the angry nintendo nerd. Dudes are a bunch of fanboys who think their opinions are indesputible fact, when in reality they don't even matter.

A little bit of overreacting don't you think? They're just guys enjoying themselves.

I don't know what crack they're smoking Re-Shelled was a decent game the only problem I had since it came out to in time for TMNT 25th anniversary they could had offer some other gameplay modes to play other than a straight out remake of the arcade game. They could offer the ability to switch between the remake graphics and classic Turtles in time graphics, not sure if they could add the SNES version and I wouldn't mind having the ability to play with a turtle from one of the different eras(Mirage, 1987 series, maybe live action or Archie comics and 2k3). The best way to play it tho is with other players.

What the hell is this gibberish.

Reshelled was mediocre at best. Let's just all accept that.

[Redeemer]

I enjoyed it for what it was. Was it Great? I think so, but thats my opinion

You're entitled to your own opinion sir, but I'm entitled to tell you your opinion sucks. I didn't say TMNT Re-Shelled was a great I said it was decent.

[The Stryker]

So you say my opinion sucks and then pretty much agree with me. Alrighty.

I found the game fun, while it wasn't what I hoped it would be. I don't believe it should be on the list with the likes of "Bionic Commando" reboot.

[Candy Cougar]

I got Reshelled as soon as it came out, and enjoyed it. Not amazing at all, and I'll be honest: I only played through it once. I still of course prefer the orignal, no amount of graphic enhancing can change that. I wouldn't consider it bad, but like a lot of the other people here seem to be saying, it was mediocre. It mainly suffers IMO from being a reboot of a perfect game (in my eyes, for that genre of game) that needs no rebooting or remaking. It sets itself up for extra critical reviews from the fans who played the original arcade and/or the SNES version. Moral of the story is: better graphics don't always make a better version or a better game. Sometimes the best way to pay respect to a classic, beloved game is to simply let it be and NOT try to make more money off of it by "enhancing" it.

[The Stryker]

Oy. You're one of those people.

It's just that these types of games don't work on consoles. They're built to suck coins out of you and without that the games are barely an hour long.

I wouldn't pay ten bucks for the classic turtles in time in this day and age.

[Jester]

I think most people remember Turtles in Time more for the SNES port (or rather version, because it is quite a bit different) than for the arcade game. I wonder if the disappointment comes from shorter arcade version being remade and not the (superior in most's minds) SNES version.

Stryker, what are you doing venturing outside of the General Forums?

[EvilStarLegacy]

The biggest problem was definitely the Arcade port instead of the SNES port. Most games getting ported are always based on the arcade version, so I assume Nintendo and Sega must own a certain amount of copyright on the console versions.

The lack of everything from the SNES version, the boring music remixes and the not-cartoonish graphics is what made the game less popular IMO. It was fine for what it was, but it could have been much better, especially considering Turtles In Time is hailed as the greatest beat 'em up ever.

I think most Nintendo fan-boys from pretty much just concerned themselves with whatever games were out on their system and ignored most everything else, be it Sega or Arcade products.

Yes, I did just diss Nintendo fan-boys... again.

[EvilStarLegacy]

I'm pretty sure most kids without arcades near them pretty much only cared about what was on their consoles and have fond memories of those specific games, not the various other versions. So everytime something comes out that isn't based on that memory, it always feels like something's wrong. Someone who actually played Turtles In Time in the arcade more than anything else will probably love the crap out of Reshelled.

[The Stryker]

Just gonna say this here.

Turtles in time isn't that good anymore. Arcade version or SNES version it was amazing in it's time but games like that just don't work anymore.

Well, of course not. They have a more extensive color pallet.

Again, Stryker, why are you having adventures outside of the General Discussion forums? Have you suddenly become interested in the Ninja Turtles franchise?

[The Stryker]

I'm sorry. Who are you? I've been posting around the whole forum for the past 2 years. Get with it.
