Title: Ninja Turtles
Post by: Grey Ninja on May 04, 2003, 10:25:24 PM: Looks pretty damn cool to me. Check out a couple of screenshots. It's like the NES has come back to life on the GameCube.

Post by: AdvancedGamer on May 05, 2003, 02:40:23 AM: I can't believe no one noticed this. The game looks exactly like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Arcade Game for the NES. I don't know if anyone has that game but remember the third level? Your in a sewer and you fight all these little metallic guys. Just like in the screenshot. Also there's a part on the bridge. TMNT 2 was the sickest game, but I want a new story and new game. O well I highly doubt that they would remake an NES game. Their probably just putting it in so people like me will go "O!!! That's from TMNT 2 on the NES!!!"

Post by: joshnickerson on May 05, 2003, 03:59:49 AM: Looks pretty sweet... I was afraid they weren't going to use cel-shading and just go straight 3-D modeling.
But... how well does it play?

Post by: PIAC on May 05, 2003, 09:54:07 AM: yay i love the ninja turtles! despite the tinyness of the shots, they do look pretty cool, and as others have said, like previous games on the nes/snes. yet another title i want

Post by: Gamefreak on May 05, 2003, 10:31:53 AM: This looks like it will dethrone TMNT4: Turtles in Time on SNES as the greatest...if Konami doesn't slack off. I see you can go up stairs and stuff now...nice. And this may be PS2 shots...Maybe you can play 4 player on GCN or PC (online)..

Post by: Samwise Gamgee on May 05, 2003, 11:16:30 AM: it better be 4 players!

Post by: ShockingAlberto on May 05, 2003, 01:18:02 PM: Did anyone ever beat the first game?

Man, that fight against Mecha-Turtle was insane.

Post by: Grey Ninja on May 05, 2003, 02:31:10 PM: Heh. I got to Shredder on the first game, but he killed me every time. I got to him about 2 or 3 times, but never could figure out how to beat him.

You are talking about the first on NES though right?
Title: Ninja Turtles
Post by: MutFox on May 05, 2003, 03:13:14 PM: To beat Shredder in the First Game,
Just Throw lots of Boomerangs,
or use Scrolls... He'll be dead in no TIME

By the way Cell/Toon Shading is 3D modelling...
It's just a Different type of Shader.

Post by: Samwise Gamgee on May 05, 2003, 07:47:31 PM: i never liked the 1st game! it was the worst one, but turtles 2, 3, and 4 were amazing!! turtles 4 is still my favorite game of all time!!!

i just wish i had the game that came out for the genesis!
Title: RE: Ninja Turtles
Post by: bloodlustandloss on May 05, 2003, 08:41:46 PM: C'mon guys, you have to remember Ninja Turtles and the Hyperstone Heist on the sega genesis. Now that, was THE best one. The new one looks hella sweet though. All I want is four player goodness.
Title: RE: Ninja Turtles
Post by: MysticGohan on May 05, 2003, 10:41:14 PM: With the GCN setup it wouldn't be hard to do but has there ever been a TMNT game where there's four players at once? other than the arcade

This should be fun, The new series is nice and refreshing. I wonder if there will be another movie? I once heard that John Woo was going to direct a CGI TMNT movie. Wheather that's still the case I do not know. But the 1st was the best and the 2nd was pretty good, but the third was just bad plotting.
Title: RE: Ninja Turtles
Post by: KrazyJ1098 on May 06, 2003, 04:32:16 AM: i heard that they are in fact making a new movie.

i do beleive that konami wont be dumb enough not to include 4 player compatability.
Title: Ninja Turtles
Post by: Toad64 on May 06, 2003, 08:45:10 AM: Finally! Some TMNT screehshots!! I can't wait!
And the John Woo movie deal actually expired, so far no theatrical movie is in the works. However, next year there will be a 4 hour, 2-part miniseries on the Hallmark channel featuring live actors and GGI turtles.

Post by: KrazyJ1098 on May 06, 2003, 06:04:11 PM: i didnt know that about the movie deal with john woo. i didnt even know that he was planning a turtles movie. oh well. nothing will top the first turtles movie anyways.
Title: Ninja Turtles
Post by: mouse_clicker on May 06, 2003, 06:07:14 PM: The new Turtles movie is reportedly going to be much darker, making it more like the comic. It's also going to be completely CG. I hope Woo handles it well- I've been a fan of the TMNT since I was a baby.
Title: RE: Ninja Turtles
Post by: MysticGohan on May 06, 2003, 07:18:40 PM: Me too Mouse_clicker I'm a big fan, and played all the games. I even have the tapes of the original show.
Title: RE: Ninja Turtles
Post by: OldMan Nintendo on May 06, 2003, 08:00:32 PM: Ohh, the TMNT comics... not the colorful ones, the ones that were done in black and white, with red blood... now THOSE were great comics. I remember having a fairly thick one, but I lost it. It had the Turtle Crew go off to another planet somewhere and fight a bunch of aliens in an arena... there was other stuff in it, too, that took place in NYC, but overall it was a great comic.

On a side note, for my best friend's 18th birthday I got him three old TMNT catoon video tapes. Needless to say, he flipped out and thanked me profusely for the gift.
Title: RE: Ninja Turtles
Post by: MysticGohan on May 06, 2003, 09:30:51 PM: That's cool, I have the Great hoodini "something like that" it's not as great as the earlier or later episodes. I think the New series is abit more darker than the light hearted one of the 80's and 90's.

Hopefully the Turtles can regain their popularity, I would love to see another movie and it better be damn well good weather it's live action or CGI, Time Travel + Turtles + Fedual Japan = Bad movie. It should usually revolve around Shredder and the likes of evil psychos. Hell intresting to see Kraig and Shredder in a Movie I miss bebop and rocksteady, I'm not sure But I can surely bet that they will be introduce in the new series. they were after all in about every Turtle game I can remember, that and the animated series of the original.

BTW are their still TMNT comics going?
Title: RE: Ninja Turtles
Post by: PIAC on May 06, 2003, 10:44:19 PM: wasn't it Kang? or Krang? not Kraig, me thinks someones been playing super metroid too much and got Kraid fused with Krang

unless im wrong
Title: Ninja Turtles
Post by: Toad64 on May 07, 2003, 03:41:39 AM: Krang, Bebop and Rocksteady won't be in the new series. Ever. Peter Laird one of the co-creators of the TMNT and writers for the new show has already said they won't. The series is based more on the original comics, and none of the characters that were only found in the old cartoon will be in the new one. The Utroms however, which are a race of brain-like aliens that they based Krang off of, are in the show.

And yes, the old black and white comics are still going, they are up to Vol. 4 no. 9. There will be another TMNT comic in color based off the cartoon starting this June.

And just in case anyone missed when I said it in the earlier post, the John Woo movie deal has expired. There are currently no plans to go ahead with it.

Post by: Terranigma Freak on May 07, 2003, 04:13:28 AM: I hate to burst your bubble but the John Woo CGI tutrle flick has been canned if you kept up with the TMNT news. Now they're making some Tv mini series instead. Anyway the shots look great and if the Turtles make a big splash I'm sure a new movie will come some day.
