Wrong!

This is HARDLY a TMNT video. It's an old-school computer nostalgia video and a turtles game happens to be in it.
Two of the three games won't even load so all we get is 2 mins of he 64 version of the NES game.
If you're a fan of James' regular stuff, it's alright, but it's not worth watching if you're looking for turtle content.

Geeze, spoiler tags much!

I was at the bit where they try to get Turtles World Tour to work. Is it a video game based on season 7's European Vacation arc, or is it Turtles meets Mario is Missing? The world may never know.

EDIT: I knew we were in for trouble when I read the title card "James and Mike try to get TMNT Commodore 64 games to work." Although I'll admit I was expecting a 3 for 3 failure rate.

*Powder* · 07-26-2011, 05:23 PM

I was bummed cause I'd never gotten to see the contents of those two games in the past...
Now, I still won't know, haha. But the World Tour one is in fact a coloring book game. It's like dropping line-art into MS paint.

Personally, I thought it was pretty cool. We finally get to see these systems in action... some of them.

*ssjup81* · 07-26-2011, 11:38 PM

I don't know what others have against this. I liked this video, but sucks they couldn't get the other two games to run, but I figured that none of them would from the title. I didn't even know of the C64 having Turtles games, but it's not too surprising.

Fugitoid Jones · 07-27-2011, 04:46 PM

I liked this video as a Commodore 64 retrospective, but as a Turtle Tuesdays video, it is a little disappointing. Powder said it best, it's about 15 minutes of James and Mike fooling around with a Commodore 64 and a Turtles' game just happens to be in there somewhere. At least we got to hear what Jame's favorite Turtles game is tho.

AK_Mikey_Fan · 07-27-2011, 05:16 PM

Interesting video. I was surprised that the Commodore actually TMNT games and all that. And I like James' choice for his fav TMNT game.

They made mirage shirts for kids? Rad!

*Revan* · 08-02-2011, 08:58 AM

Lol. I have pictures and video of myself playing turtle too. Funny feel-good video.

**Jester** · 08-02-2011, 09:19 AM

That was very nostalgic, but man that Leonardo costume was soooo bad!

*Jephael* · 08-02-2011, 12:59 PM

Too bad he didn't get Ivey in her Michaelangelo costume. Hers is 1,000 times better than that crappy Leonardo costume!

*Revan* · 08-02-2011, 01:05 PM

I agree her costume is much better. But she was only 12 when this video was shot

*Jephael* · 08-02-2011, 01:09 PM

I believe her dad made her first Mikey costume around the year 1991.

*Revan* · 08-02-2011, 01:16 PM

That is so awesome! Lucky girl. Still, this vid was shot in 1990...

*Jephael* · 08-02-2011, 01:19 PM

Not only that, I don't believe Ivey started traveling around the country until around 1996 when The Next Mutation was in production.

Fugitoid Jones · 08-03-2011, 03:38 PM

This video was great! Reminds me of my old birthdays when I would get TMNT cakes and TMNT toys/swag for presents. I gotta say, I would've been freaked out by that Turtle costume too. What was up with the size of his head?

Hope you’ve enjoyed all the Turtle Tuesday supplementary videos. It was our intention to review the comics, the board games, and most importantly the cartoon series. Over the years of creating web videos, TMNT is something that always gets requests. We wanted to give the turtles a big blowout, and take care of most of the turtle-related things we ever wanted to do.

The “Live Action Leftovers” video is the last big video review for Turtle Tuesdays, but we still have enough filler videos to post, so Turtle Tuesdays will live on, just in a much lesser form.

Ok. So, there's gonna be more yet? Neat. Haven't watched this yet, bout to though. Enjoy.

Quite an enjoyable way to end things. (At least the big videos.) Definitely one of the best Turtle Tuesday videos and I couldn't stop laughing at his riffs on Coming out of their Shells and Next Mutation. (Splinter's randomly opened mouth and the paradox of Shredder making music even though he apparently hates it killed me.

)

*oldmanwinters* · 08-09-2011, 01:56 AM

I'll admit it: I like the turtle costumes in Operation Blue Line. They really do look like giant action figures. For that reason, I find them more bearable than the bad mouth movements of the Turtle Tunes and the Turtle Christmas videos.

Also, the last line of the Nerd video was sooo unexpected...
