For me Turtle Mania died with TMNT III but still lived just a bit longer when that SNES Tournament Fighters came out. That felt for me like the last hurrah.

While the franchise was definitely waning by 1993, I'd say 1996 is a good cut-off point.
- Mirage Volume 2 ended in 1995. - Archie TMNT Adventures ended in 1995 - Fred Wolf cartoon ended in 1996 Once those 3 series ended by 1996, it was basically the end of the original run of Turtlemania. Then of course 1997 was Next Mutation and Image, but that was basically during the "dead years" where they were trying to keep it going. |

I still don't know one person who in real life ever actually played that game except me. Even guys who were big TMNT fans. It was considered at large like a baby version of Street Fighter, for people who suck at Street Fighter. Which was kind of sad, in a way. Not unlike "playing" the TMNT & Other Strangeness RPG by yourself, because other actual TMNT fans who want to play a tabletop TMNT RPG don't really exist.
