Product Description
Forget the Turtles of long ago; these reptiles are mean, green fighting machines. Take on mutants like War, Armaggon, Rat King, Chrome Dome, Wingnut, Aska, and others in tournament-style fighting unlike any youve ever seen. There are a dozen combat arenas and eight difficulty levels to keep you busy, while four different modes of play keep the replay value high. You can adjust the speed for faster fighting in World Tournament, One-on-One, Spectator, and Story modes. Try out cool moves like: quick kicks, pile drivers, head-butts, two-fisted zoom punches, bite attacks, and the Ultimate Attack Move. Hey, even a turtles got to take care of business occasionally.

 The only decent of the three! August 20, 2008
When this game was released in 1993, the Ninja Turtles' popularity was declining so Konami took advantage of the fighting game market (that was booming thanks to the popularity of Street Fighter 2) I would have to thank that lame third movie (that came out early in 1993) for the declining popularity plus copycats like Biker Mice from Mars and Battletoads that were taking its place.
The SNES version on the game proved to be decent, borrowing elements from Street Fighter 2, except it was more kid friendly. Characters and colorful atmosphere were directly taken from the Archie comics and the "real" animated series. You get the choice of the four turtles, Cyber Shredder, Wingnut, War, that shark dude, Chrome Dome, and the sexy Asaka (the only character made for this game only) who was slightly cencored for the American releases. The story mode is basically a tournament (hosted by April O'Neal) of which after you defeat Karai (only character taken from the darker Mirage comics) you get lots of money and unique ending for each different character, if you play fair. Gameplay is decent and so are the controls, and choice of characters to use and fight from the Ninja Turtle universe. I kinda wished that Tokka and Razhar, and Bebop and Rocksteady were playable characters, but they are clearly not skilled ninjas so the later set was placed in the background in one stage. This game is no picnic (its sooo damn hard) so it'll take a while to beat it.
Turtle fans, get this game and ignore the same titles from the other consoles because they are horrible and the worst is the Sega Genesis version. Although the Sega version had the best storyline and graphics, it was too dark and difficult for kids plus the controls were sloppy, the game play was slow, the music score was awful, and the taunt button was a waste. Shredder should have been the final boss (he is no where in that game and he's the turtles' main villian) instead of Karai. Karai was ok, but the target audience were more familar with the cartoon series, not the Mirage comics.

I remember this game being a bit more easy as a kid of 12 or so when it came out,but jeez louise did my bro,his 2 buddies and I have trouble getting anywhere on the easy level,haha! They're all extremely avid gamers(mostly of the classic systems),but even they were stumbling just as much as my no-more-gamin' butt! I gave it 3 stars simply cause you can still have fun playing vs mode,but why would the story mode be so damn hard?!
A solid street fighter clone May 27, 2006

There's been quite a few Street Fighter II clones, and most have been pretty shoddy. TMNT: Tournament Fighters holds up quite well, especially for Turtles fans. There are 10 selectable characters plus two playable bosses, for a total of 12. Besides the four turtles, characters are drawn from the cartoon, original comic books, and Archie series, making for a unique blend. The most interesting inclusion is Karai, who was established in the comics but only entered the mainstream with the 2003 animated series.
Graphics are well-realized and detailed, the fighters animate smoothly. Some more background animation and activity would've been appreciated, as well as unique finishing poses (instead of simply being a freeze of one of the character's moves). Music is forgettable but unobtrusive. The games' biggest letdown is that it only uses 4 buttons instead of the Street Fighter 6, but the fighting engine is still pretty good. There are even chargable super moves that can quickly turn the tide of battle.
TMNT fans will want to track this game down. Fans of the genre should also feel safe adding it to their collection.

This game is freckin awsome. I loved this game as a kid and I really want to get ahold of another copy of it. I swear it is one of the coolest TMNT games of all time! :)
