Turtles in Time Arcade or SNES? - Page 2

I have to go with the SNES version. The arcade version never came to my area so I never played it.

purchased an old SNES just to play this again..SNES. had the ultimate TMNT experience for me, original arcade in at second. made closer when you have the 4 player experience available.

I love the SNES version better when it comes to gameplay/features. However, my heart does go for the arcade version also because when I was a kid, my brother and I beat the game in the arcades - him being Don and me being Leo. That was an awesome night.

I'm probably the one of the few that preferred the arcade version because of the slightly better graphics and the richer sound clips and background music. It created a more engaging game because of it.

I do admit the extra levels, and Turtle color changes are noteworthy in the SNES version, but the arcade experience is just more exciting having friends play with you rather than playing by yourself or just one extra person at your home. True you would waste some significant money, but it was far more memorable time with friends than the multiple times staying home and playing by yourself.

I preferred the arcade version mainly for the graphics and the 4 player mode. Also because I'm working out a deal to buy a 4 player TMNT In Time arcade cabinet

Snes, all the way. Snes had better music IMO.

There is no contest because of the superior boss roster. A mud monster? Slash every day of the week! Rat King in one of his only two games? Heck yeah! Bebop and Rocksteady?Awesome!

Why Metalhead?He is not really a villain.Chrome Dome would have been perfect especially with his inclusion in SNES Tournament Fighter.

I love the arcade version, and I still dream about owning both arcade games someday. Or both boards in one cabinet.

The SNES version is one of my favorite SNES games ever, which had a pretty amazing game library. Even if it can be beaten in <20 minutes, I would still choose it over the arcade.

I have the original TMNT 4 player arcade cabinet with boards for both TMNT and TMNT in Time. I've probably beaten TMNT in Time several dozen times over the years. I think, though, that I prefer the SNES version. The little ending cinematic with the presentation of all the characters still amuses me!

Do you remember what you paid for your boards?

I paid $400 for the original TMNT 4 player cabinet (with board). That was in 1998, I think. I purchased the TMNT in Time board about a year later for something like $125.

I'll say SNES version. Too many hrs spent on it. Plus with the arcade you have to let someone else have a turn(guess Im selfish lol) Plus it has Slash.

tmntpower1988 · 12-01-2012, 05:26 AM

SNES all the way. I was looking to play this game recently but I can't seem to find the cartridge I know I didn't sell it anyway, hopefully it will pop up at some stage.

BladeEdge86 · 12-01-2012, 09:41 PM

I never got to play the arcade version but the SNES version is pretty awesome, easily my favorite TMNT game of all time.

Stingray69 · 12-02-2012, 03:12 AM

Ive never played the arcade one so nes all the way.

Donatello_ftw · 12-03-2012, 02:49 AM

Snes for sure! Me and my friend recently played through it on each difficulty and during the last fight against Super Shredder on Hard, my reaction was something like this

Mini-Turtle · 12-03-2012, 10:07 PM

SNES, of course! The only thing the Arcade version does better is sound quality.

prez · 12-31-2012, 11:44 PM

SNES for me, it was cheaper in the long run and it had more options for various gameplay

galaxysurfer · 01-12-2013, 07:12 PM

Definitely SNES!

the fixer · 03-08-2013, 05:24 AM

SNES version for me too. What an AWESOME game that was....

Speaking of Turtles in Time, I have a small question...

Was the arcade version of Turtles in Time included as an unlockable in any recent console Turtles game (like the first arcade game in Battle Nexus)?
