Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time (Super Nintendo, 1992)

Really fun game, highly recommend for any turtle fan! The graphics are very close to the original arcade game, which is great, and the action is non-stop. The controls for the different moves takes some getting used to but overall it's not too hard to hack and slash your way though all the levels. And speaking of those they are very fun and animated as well.

TMNT 4: Turtles in Time for the Super Nintendo was and probably still is the best side-scrolling beat 'em up game ever created. You choose to play as one of the four Turtles: Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, or Michaelangelo and go through several areas, and time periods, to try to recover what Krang and Shredder stole from New York: the Statue of Liberty. The game has very simple controls, with a basic attack button and an advanced attack button, as well as a jump button, and obviously the directional pad for movement. You go through 9-10 levels (depending on what you consider a level, one of them may be considered as 2 levels) and beat up hordes of foot clan members as well as other enemies to try and recover the stolen statue. Each level even has a boss battle at the end which makes the game better yet, and you can also set the difficulty level for the game, with the higher difficulty potentially having something extra to offer if you can survive. The icing on top of this awesome "cake" is that you can even go through with a friend and do a two-player campaign to take down the villains. The controls are simple, the levels are extremely fun, and you'll want to replay this game again and again. Let's face it, who wouldn't have a blast beating up on enemies with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?!? Cowabunga!!

Turtles in Time is a very entertaining game. It is a fighting-style game where you can pick any one of the four different turtles. Each turtles has his own different weapon and different fighting moves. The only flaw is that there is no way of saving your progress. Each time you start the game, you have to start from the very first level.

I want to start off by saying this is my favorite Ninja Turtles game ever produced. Its a classic 1-2 player beat 'em up and never gets boring to play.

I purchased this game because a.) I am collector. b.) I wanted to play the GAME and relive my childhood memories. c.) I had the box and manual but no cartridge. d.) it was fairly priced and holds its value

There are no dislikes for me about TMNT 4: Turtles in Time. Everything about it is great.

Comparing this one to the other Turtles games that have been made previously to this game...They do not compare. The Hyperstone Heist for Sega Genesis was good and is a possible runner up to this one...but the NES Turtles games; 1, 2: the Arcade game and 3: the Manhattan project do not come close to this game.
Now before you make up your mind..I want to also state that those NES games are very good (except for the first one - because its very challenging and it has bad controls).

Conclusion to my rather brief review:
If you are a turtles fan and a gamer then save your money and money buy this game. If you do not have a Super Nintendo...save more money and buy a SNES AND this game.

This game was purchased to bring back some nostalgia and fun into the game collection that had become stale with dominantly single-player and turn based games.

This game is a great classic from an era when the arcade ruled. The cartoon graphics and vibrant colors translated from the TV show to the game perfectly. The beat'em up style game play also makes this game fun for people of all ages and skill sets.

For those familiar with the arcade game this port to console did not suffer nearly as much as other ports of its day. Though its flaws were quite forgivable. For example, the Super Nintendo(SNES) version lacks some animation and voice samples that the arcade used but its redeemable qualities include mode-7 graphics, customized skin toned for each turtle and an instrumental version of the TV theme replaced the "Pizza Power" that the arcade uses. There are other changes too but most of them are not due to the limitations of the SNES but more creative changes. Some of the changes including a new level and new bosses.

This game easily qualifies as one of the top 25 SNES games of all time and a timeless classic for anyone who loves retro gaming, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, or beat'em up style games. I would highly recommend this product to anyone.
