No Love for Turtles 3 the Manhattan Project? - Page 2

I loved this game. I remember trying to avoid spoilers and putting the instruction book away so I can be surprised with each new boss the game would throw at you as we played the game (Gamepro already spoiled Leatherhead and I think Dirtbag). But yeah, it does become easy to forget since it wasn't based on an arcade game. My bro and I used to call the Fugitoids 'Urkelbots'.

I can never kill Shredder. He always comes back to normal health after glowing red again and again and again.

I watched a youtube video recently and Shredder only glows once and he got killed immediately after that.

What the hell???

I remember you have to drain all of his health and then you have beat again later.

Since my son is getting into the Turtles now we sat down and tag teamed this game over the weekend and beat it.

Yeah, its great to have him and Armaggon in that not to mention as playable, but I meant as a boss to face at the end of a level. It would have been nice for him to fit somewhere into Manhattan Project.

Having the 'Mother Mouser' twice was a waste of time. Totally should have went with the Rat King in the sewer level.

It's been years since I played that game. Sadly I no longer own my original NES console and all the games I had for it are long gone. I had a lot of fond memories playing in the basement and the living room.

This was by far my favorite TMNT game as a kid. I had a NES and Genesis so Turtles in Time wasn't an option for me. And as far as the Sega was concerned, Hyperstone Heist was just too short and was a wannabe TMNT in Time. So I would spend hours playing TMNT III on the NES. The Genesis was in my bedroom but the NES was hooked up to a large old console TV in the basement. I remember it was on its last leg when I was into this game and whenever I turned it on, I needed to smack the top of it to get the picture to come in LOL.

I agree it was easier than TMNT II, especially with the secret menu option at the start screen (I think up up down down left right left right a b start). And I loved the special moves. They took life away UNLESS you were almost dead at which point you could use it unlimited without losing any life. That came in real handy with bosses.

Man, this was easily one of my favorite games as a kid! I'd play it with my brother (and occasionally my sister) all the time. I liked it because, frankly, I wasn't that great at video games, and the special moves really helped me out in a pinch. We would sometimes argue who got to play Raph (as we all thought he had he best special move), but the other would almost always take Leo. Only once we got a little older did my brother start challenging himself by playing with Don or Mikey.

Unless of course we would choose them on accident. I remember when that happened to me, I would pretty much just give up because of how terrible I was without Raph or Leo's special moves. ^_^;; ...yeah, I mostly stuck to puzzle/racing games as a kid, but I still loved this and TMNT II because two people could play at the same time, and the person I played with would make up for my sucky skills.

I seriously doubt this game was released out here...

Back in the day I played the heck out of every single Nintendo Turtles game on NES, SNES and Game Boy. I'm sure that I would've picked this one up if I'd seen it in stores...

A current gen remake anyone? :p

Are you kidding? I loved this game. Best rogues gallery ever.
