Completely agree. Besides, it isn't like this corner of the forums gets a whole lot of love.

Wasn't there some sort of hacked version you could play on the PC that was tweaked to be even more difficult? Or am I thinking of a different game?

You're thinking of the PC port that had an impossible but necessary jump in one of the sewers. No one's ever made it without cheating.

You're thinking of "Frank's Ultimate TMNT" hack, which is awesome! RedMage beat it in a blind run. That guy's just too good!

Regarding the "Thread Worthiness" of it all...

I fully understand the importance of this accomplishment, it's just that if everybody started a thread for beating the game... well, you get the idea.

I recommend we start an Official Technodrome Forums "I beat TMNT1 for NES !!!" thread. I would become the platform for reminiscing about victory or consolation for defeat.

But, whatever...

Nobody can knock the enternal enemy of Scooby Doo not to mention a fellow big fan of the other media greatness that is TMNT! Besides you are correct! Though why not I Beat A TMNT Game to cover all from NES's first release to Smash Up?

Then we would have a sub forum with 3 pages worth of threads instead of 2? Just sayin'.

I agree that the Video Game section does need more love among posters. Although it seems like the old threads disappear more quickly into the mysterious "archive" realm on the VG section.

EDIT:
Looks like the last VG thread listed was last updated on December of 2011. Is this forum set to automatically "archive" threads after a certain period of inactivity?

Did you not see the video I embedded under the post? There's a ROM hack that makes the game harder. That's what I was joking about.

Personally, I use a special code to beat this game.

Press the Start button at the main title screen.
