NEW Nick TMNT Beat-em Up Arcade Cabinet Coming Soon

A licensed game really usually only happens anymore to capitalize on nostalgia or on a current brand. While it being an arcade brawler might tap that nostalgia button, it being based on a show that will be over by the time the game is released isn't doing it any favors. And if it's supposed to be marketed at adults, why would they choose an incarnation where a large percentage of them still snub it because it's not "their" Turtles?

I mean, I'm excited for it. There's an arcade right down the road from where I work; if they get it in I'll be there for sure. But you have to look at things objectively.
