Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Games 

Thanks! Hopefully Game Sack will still be going when you're 45. :)

@@GameSack, hopefully Game Sack won't keep losing presenters at the same rate! I can't imagine how it would work?

when the video says new but you've watched it five times already

Username checks out

I was like 6 or 7 and my parents would take us to Chuck E Cheese and all my quarters went into that tmnt cabinet. Nothing like that scramble to feed the machine more quarters on the continue screen

And don't forgret "Uuuhh who turned the lights out?" and "Shell shock"

@@jonnyblanka my toe my toe

I was in high school and played the hell out of TMNT. It and Street Fighter 2 ate a ton of my part time fast food job quarters.

I think I've never seen an arcade back then which didn't have this game and I've been to like 3 arcades.

Have you played TMNT RESCUE PALOOZA?

My most hyped release in years.

Oh yes me too!

Having a lot of fun with the collection. One of my local shops released it early.

Hopefully the physical copies have been made in abundance so it stays cheap,forever.

I’m not an insomniac! I was playing xenoblade 3

who needs sleep when youve got turtle power

... or just people on another timezone

Bossa nova! ....Chevy nova?

@@lstcell it’s kind of a running joke I’ve had for the fellow subscribers who reside on the east coast of the US as I do. I am terribly sorry this offended you.

Eww

the half of sundays aren't sundays then i guess

You say Sundays I say Saturday night.

Reference to “Gaming Pet Peeves” from the Dave days.

It’s not a skit, it’s a documentary! 🥴

If you ever played Fry Cry: Blood Dragon, it has a fantastic tutorial, I highly suggest it.

It is, and it's poorly balanced and paced... For instance, one mission have you clear 40 enemies as April, but you will likely succeed with 2 or even 1 second before a Time Out...

I was thinking the exact same thing, since Super Smash Bros. actually uses a 2D-style gameplay mechanic despite it having 3D-style graphics.

Was about to say the same thing. TMNT Smash Up is a Super Smash Bros clone

Mutant Melee is a great Shrek Super Slam clone

@@Ryuujin1078 EXCEPT that there is an actual glitch that sometimes gives to victory... to someone without the most KOs.

Yeah, they did make some worthwhile improvements to Turtles in Time where they could on the SNES. Of course, the arcade version is better in other ways. Personally, the SNES music wasn't as good to me, though there's a hack for that now. But I agree that it's good to have both versions. They're different enough to both be worth playing and I appreciate both versions. For example, I always preferred the original Neon Night Riders stage, but the other changes in the SNES game's level structure were very good ideas.

@@ravagingwolverine aye, I appreciate the original for what it is, a great, albeit flawed version of the game with amazing graphics for its time and an excellent soundtrack. Speaking of the soundtrack, I prefer the SNES arrangements overall, many of them just have a harder edge. Neon Night Riders being one such example, along with Bury My Shell at Wounded Knee, those galloping drums during the intro to that level, still epic to this day. Listening to Samus66 jam on the drums to the SNES arrangements of soundtrack really made me appreciate it that much more. I'm glad both versions are included, so we can appreciate them for what they are and experience them for ourselves.

It's far superior, yes. I wouldn't say it's a "rare" instance though; the NES and SNES were rife with superior home versions of arcade games like Contra, Double Dragon, etc. Due to the nature of arcade games as quarter-munchers, it should have been seen as the standard for home console versions to be superior. That's how I always saw it.

Ninja Gaiden and Bionic Commando on NES as well.

@@osurpless You see? I forgot those even were arcade games. Lol

Isn't Mutants in Manhattan de-listed, too?

Yeah it is, but it's still available in physical format. IF one can find it.

They are poop. On a stick.

Reshelled is just awful so no it completely deserves the rep it received

@@aeidengtfo6758 Had the game got all the trophy's did everything I could do in that game and I loved every minute of it. People are far too harsh to that game, it's not bad at all.

And that dojo level got reused for the genesis version the hyperstone heist

I identify as a reused pain in the ass dojo snow tiger... please use the proper pronouns while praising me for my stunning bravery

Came here to say this

@@Yamigata Me too. You and I are like sisters

@@Haywood-Jablomie Thanks sis

You played Shredder's Revenge yet? I bought a Switch strictly for that game. Highly recommend if you haven't already.

Cool. Me too back in the day. Watching the show, the movies, pretending to be the turles with my friends. I remember birthday parties and parents renting an arcade place. It had the TMNT arcade, we had pizza and the theme was TMNT (plates, napkins, decorations). My neighbor is a baker and he made me a TMNT cake. It was awesome. I had a turtles costume for halloween.

@@mosiarmstrong not only a great turtles game, but a great beat them up over all

@@mosiarmstrong Oh yeah. It's incredible.

@@soluciones11s.a.s81 I have to agree. I haven't touched it in a bit because I've been playing Streets of Rage 4 but I hear them turtle boys calling my name.

like your mom

Yeah... except he missed an entire game. Out of Shadows from 2013.

@@thiagovidal6137 Krang is actually from dimension x

​@@thiagovidal6137 It was never meant to be a comprehensive list of all TMNT games. Just, as the description says, a bunch of them.

where are you going?? We need to complete your ninja training 🤣

I doubt it'll be awful

@Phantasm lol that's your opinion. Official games are fine if enough work has been put into it. Sony's PS1 has shown what poor effort can do.

@@NickJaime for example, nightdive studios produce some consistently high quality ports of retro first person shooters like quake, turok, Powerslave and doom 64. Although, expecting everyone to meet that high of a standard is a bit mean. (But, digital eclipse do have a pretty good track record with retro game ports, so it'd be pretty good).

@@NickJaime their were some good games for the ps1

Same lol I’m assuming he lives on the west coast

Colorado

Or you could just wait until the next day to watch it....

@@Bubba__Sawyer Make me commie. 😤

@@livefreeprintguns It was a suggestion, not a demand. Seriously though... what's the problem with just waiting until the next day to watch a video that gets uploaded late? Do you think you're gonna miss out on something? Have you never heard of delayed gratification?

WOW! I didn't know Tribute Games did it! I've been following that developer for years and I've always enjoyed their indie titles like Ninja Senki or Wizorb... you just blew my mind, thanks!

Not to mention that game may have the best soundtrack of any turtle game and is probably one of the best video game soundtracks ever.

I mentioned it in a different comment but you can play it on a PS3 emulator quite easily if you want to go that route. That's what I did when I saw a unredeemed PC code going for $400.

OotS was a buggy mess when it released but the fundamentals were excellent. Iirc, the PS3 version was eventually patched which improved performance somewhat. I played it on PS3 and I remember struggling with it initially but eventually returning and having a great experience. I’m still disheartened that I was never able to experience it via online co-op, with someone playing each of the turtles. I think it had the best characterization of the turtles of any game. The combat was very deep and well designed. It definitely has the best team attacks of any turtles game. I also LOVE that they got the rights to use “Turtle Power” by Partners in Kryme. It’s really a shame that it was so maligned by critics upon release and never recovered. I honestly believe that most people who continue to disparage it either never gave it a fair shake or never played it and are simply parroting the media sentiment.

@@scabdidlybastard Alot of people compared it to the old beat em ups and never really tried to look deeper past the intial couple of levels

Surprised it wasnt mentioned in this video. It even had an arcade mode if I’m not mistaken.

Best memory ever. Plus it is timeless, and fun to play. Crazy its been forever ago.

The arcade game is the best (nes tmnt 2)

I've never seen anyone diss the game, I tend to see the game get praised. I own a copy, and I pretty much love playing it myself.

Tee Lopes just knows the heart, and soul of every project he creates a soundtrack for.

Weirdos snes fans dismiss the game “because it’s not turtles in time!” They missed out honestly. I hope they fanboys give it a shot on the collection.

Good to know about the updates messing up the modifications. I'll have to keep it in mind. I haven't gotten around to playing Shredder's Revenge(hardware issues and bad timing), but being able to replace music is something I appreciate and was a selling point. There's some stuff in there that doesn't really work for me from what I've heard. Good that the developers made it so simple to do and I think it will make a big difference for me.

Joe said he didn't cover every game. Did you watch the whole video?

@@BigSnipp I love your sarcasm 👍

@@melancholas That wasn't sarcasm, he was correcting you 👍

@@Bubba__Sawyer The sarcasm is, that he asked if I watched the whole video. And in the very beginning Joe said he is going to review every TMNT game. So, I could say that he hasn't watched the whole video. Second, I wrote that there was that one game missing, nothing about Joe missed it. If we now analyze every word about who said or wrote what, it is becoming a neverending story.

ya they made those games very unforgiving for no reason imo. and that made them not fun to play. the tmnt for nes is one game i will not be playing a hole lot in the collection

That game looks horrendous.

@@GameSack It is horrendous! I still have it downloaded on my PS3 (I believe it got delisted some time ago). It doesn't control well, the enemies feel 'mushy', it's a remake of the arcade version so it's missing the SNES exclusive content and most unforgivably... the music was completely redone, replacing the iconic original's soundtrack with some utterly generic nonsense! There was also TMNT: Out of the Shadows on PS3 and Xbox360... it is also not good!

The Triceratons came from the original Mirage Studios comics, and they actually even predate the Turtles themselves.

Disappointed is probably a strong word, I am guessing you are "surprised."

@@KasumiKenshirou OK, so their debut in non-comic media. I figured they must have been featured in the comics earlier than 1991. The episode of the 1987 series where they show up was first broadcast in 1993.

Why not just watch the video first and then leave a relevant comment after instead of rushing straight to the comments the second the video is uploaded?

I don't remember promising that every game would be covered.

they're easily missed downloadable titles that are no longer available to purchase due to licensing issues. no point telling people whether a game is worth buying if its not available to buy

@@GameSack You clearly said at the start " I will be covering every game"

@@GameSack well played Joe from game sack

Out of the shadows was glitchy broken fun.

Yeah I saw a trailer for that and felt I needed to take some Adderall or something.

He liked Mutant Nightmare

He didn't say that, he said that they were of varying quality.

The irony is the edge was part of the joke, OG Turtles was never meant to be taken seriously.

That was excellent. But also so true.
