What are they talking about? Wasn't TMNT: Legends from like 10 years ago a turn-based video game? And I'm not even sure THAT was the first one.

I just saw a preview for it on youtube. It kind of looks like a tactical rpg like Final Fantasy Tactics or Fire Emblem. I hope that it eventually comes out for the Switch.

Is the TMNT license worth like $5 nowadays?
It seems everyone and their mom is making new figure lines and video games, not to mention all types of merchandise from companies I'd never heard of. |

Losely based on the years leading up to the events of Once Upon a Time Machine?

Looks like this is getting a Switch and XBOX release next week. Might have to check this out. I feel like this will definitely show up Thursday on the Indie World showcase for Nintendo.

I am stoked about this news. I can't believe how many Ninja Turtles games we have been getting. Now I have to decide if I want to go Digital or wait for a physical.

So has anybody played this yet? I bought it the day it came out, but I haven't touched it yet because I am deeply into Tears of the Kingdom. I hope it's good.

I saw the game advertised as part of the trailers before the 35th anniversary theatrical re-release.

So this game is decent. I think it deserves points for creativity because I have not played a tactical game quite like this one. There are some cool unique ideas here. However, the music was pretty terrible to me, and the story was lackluster. However, the actual game was kind of fun. It only took me a couple of hours to beat it. I like how towards the end of each level, the enemies come in so strong that you are basically just trying to survive until the level ends which you never know when it does. I think that 10 bucks would have been a better price. I highly recommend playing this one.

I've been wanting to try this out, but I'm shocked they've been so hesitant to put this on sale. Maybe it's just me, but $20 feels steep for a game of this style, license fees being what they are and whatnot. Splintered Fate offers WAY more variety, and that's always on sale.
