As a Turtles superfanboi this makes me feel like love is in the air.

Are you guys missing the part at the bottom that says:

That was edited in, probably whilst I was typing up my last comment...
Due to last edit 12:29am.
My last comment being 12:30am (then I went sleep)

 

[Orta]

Fixed? What do you mean?

Flicker and slow down I'd imagine.

All part of the charm for me. Can't wait to get this for my Switch.

Sorry, force of habit expecting little from Konami.

 

[Max_Po]

Fking pre-ordering it on every platform

 

[Goalus]

Getting the Xbox version because I know I’ll be able to play it on the next system.

The obvious solution.

 

[I Love Rock 'n' Roll]

Day Cowabunga one! Konami was killing it at the time.

My top 5:
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Arcade)
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project (NES)
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time (Super Nintendo)
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist (Sega Genesis)
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: Radical Rescue (Game Boy)

Amazing!!!!

Where do I begin? Let's see:

Controller Lag
Graphically glitches not associated with the original game
Sound lag
Sound glitches
Crashes

 

[Sp3eD]

They better fix the aspect ratios or I will just stick to my raspberry pi. Both castlevania and contra (switch) don’t have a proper 4:3 without their horrible scan lines filter enabled. They have never fixed it.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Just read it comes in physical edition too.

 

[cireza]

Integer scaling ?

 

[yurinka]

It's on switch and Xbox too.

Wonder if there will be online for tournament fighters (I can't imagine there will be sadly)

I think it only has local multiplayer. Which means that you can play online with friends using Share Play in PS, or equivalent on Steam etc.

Turtles in Times is the best Beat'em up on SNES

Good news

 

[InfiniteCombo]

I hope you'll be able to scale up to full screen and turn the borders off. But Ill be getting it regardless.

Should be able to.

I own the Castlevania and Contra collections on PC (published by Konami, which looks to be the case for this Turtles collection as well), and both allow you to have games in:

"Pixel perfect" mode
4:3 mode
16:9 stretched mode ()

Anyway, all modes allow scanlines, and the bordered modes allow you to turn borders off.

Nice! Day one for me

Turtles in Times is the best Beat'em up on SNES

When I read your post I thought, "but what about Final Fight!?" then remembered that SNES Final Fight is massively gimped due to the lack of coop. The arcade version of Final Fight is my favorite beat em up of all time.

You could argue that SNES Turtles in Time is gimped for a similar reason (allows only up to 2 players compared to the arcade which allows up to 4), but now comes my potentially hot take: SNES Turtles in Time >> Arcade Turtles in Time.

Of course, The Arcade in most cases are superior, same could be said for both Turtles in Time and Final Fight.

For Final Fight, they cut way too many content, like cutting a whole level and boss(Rolento), cutting one of the protagonist(Guy), no co-op as you've mentioned, meaningless censorship, delayed hit detection compare to arcade and lastly only three enemy on screen at the same time, making the game less enjoyable. And don't even get me started on you have to start the entire level over for continue instead of continue where you left off.

The Arcade version of Final Fight is a complete difference experience.

BTW, good to know there are lots of retro gamers lurking here

 

[omegasc]

Me to everyone saying it was a meh State of Play: "have you seen The Cowabunga Collection!?"

 

[InfiniteCombo]

I know "Fuck Konami" is a popular thing around these parts, and in many cases for good reason. But Konami has been awesome to us retro fans lately:

- Contra Collection
- Castlevania (OG) Collection
- Castlevania (Advance) Collection
- Arcade Collection of some of their great shooters

Some (... maybe all!?) of these collections have pixel perfect, 4:3, 16:9, and scanlines options. [Yeah yeah, the usual peanut gallery will come to complain about "... b-but me no like their scanlines! Wahhhhh !" Who cares? They're serviceable. If you're that picky about scanlines and are not playing on a professional-grade CRT TV, then you're full of shit ]

One of the coolest features though is the ability to select between American and Japanese versions of games -- and in Contra's case, even the European "Probotector" variants. During those early Konami days, there were often important regional differences between the American and Japanese releases. I wonder if they'll include the same option for this Ninja Turtles Collection....

 

[SALMORE]

They will probably going to release it before the new return of shradder game

 

[nkarafo]

I see it includes both the Arcade and SNES version of Turtles in Time.

That means more people will witness how the arcade version is inferior to the SNES port.

You could argue that SNES Turtles in Time is gimped for a similar reason (allows only up to 2 players compared to the arcade which allows up to 4), but now comes my potentially hot take: SNES Turtles in Time >> Arcade Turtles in Time.

That's not a hot take. Everyone who played the arcade version should know how bad it is. Floaty controls, slippery characters who can't even finish their combos, button mashing gameplay where special moves are completely random. More enemies to button mash with 1 hit VS less enemies who are tougher on SNES version (and more enjoyable to beat thanks to the countless different moves).

I remember being amazed at how bad this was, after playing the SNES version to death (my favorite beat em up of all time btw). I first played it on MAME and i thought this must be a bugged game that isn't emulated properly.

Of course, The Arcade in most cases are superior, same could be said for both Turtles in Time and Final Fight.

See above.

 

[Hardensoul]

Damn! I love SNES Tournament Fighters! Never thought I’d see port of that again!

Also Turtles in time!! Woohoo!

 

[fart town usa]

So awesome. Best retro collection yet. Day 1.

 

[Ristifer]

Couldn’t be more down for this! The only thing that excited me during the State of Play.

Gonna be a great collection to lead up to Shredder’s Revenge.

 

[RAIDEN1]

Instead of adding the genesis version of Tournament Fighters which wasn't exactly stellar, they should have included:

 

[fart town usa]

Just because.

 

[Andyliini]

Awesome. Will buy physical for Switch. If Konami can license TMNT again, I hope they can also release their Tiny Toon Adventures games too in a similar manner.

 

[sn0man]

I gotta get a physical copy of this! Probably switch but maybe PS4.

I always assumed this was going to be stuck in licensing hell. I wonder if the arcade turtles in time has the music.

 

[GermanZepp]

that price though

 

[Business]

Somehow I totally forgot Tournament Fighters existed. Pretty cool.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Nostalgia overload. Especially the NES and Gameboy games. Gaming PTSD nostalgia

 

[digoutyoursoul]

This is a day 1 must buy if physical switch release happens. These games are timeless.

It’s been confirmed there will be a physical release

 

[DeepEnigma]

It’s been confirmed there will be a physical release

Explains the pricing model.

 

[saintjules]

Damn! I love SNES Tournament Fighters! Never thought I’d see port of that again!

Hell yeah to both! I actually never knew a S NES version to Tournament Fighters existed. Pretty wild.

Edit: NES version I mean

 

[saintjules]

Tournament Fighters Online play is absolutely crazy.

 

[Hardensoul]

Hell yeah to both! I actually never knew a SNES version to Tournament Fighters existed. Pretty wild.

SNES tournament fighters is the better version!

 

[Neff]

Announcement of the millennium.

 

[ResurrectedContrarian]

Now I want to know: how far did everyone actually get (who played it in the NES days) on TMNT 1 for the NES? I was able to make it all the way into the technodrome, but could never reach Shredder and don't think I ever will without cheats or save states.

 

[93xfan]

Fixed? What do you mean?

Maybe he’s worried about it reproducing? I think it’s old enough where we don’t have to worry about that

 

[93xfan]

OMFG! Will double dip, Steam and Console Physical. Never expected this to happen, fantastic news I cant believe it

I kept wondering last night if I’d dreamed it as I drifted in and out of sleep. Seems almost too good to be true

 

[ComputerBlue]

BIG APPLE 3AM

Day one.

 

[saintjules]

SNES tournament fighters is the better version!

Oh wait, my bad. I meant to say NES! I didn't know about the Nintendo version until recently. But yes, SNES for sure.

 

[GloveSlap]

This looks really good. I played a lot of TMNT arcade online on Xbox 360. One of the big reasons i never got rid of the system too.

Hopefully they limit how many continues you get here as well (i think it was 20 lives on 360). It makes it way more fun when there is a challenge.

 

[levyjl1988]

Will double-dip for Xbox and Switch.

I will counter argue and say those changes make SNES Final Fight a better game. The cut stage is a bullshit quarter munching stage so the game actually improved with it's removal. And the less enemies I feel also gave the game better balance and playability. I was severely disappointed when I finally had the chance to play the arcade version... I haven't played in a while though, so I should probably give it another go.

Does suck to lose a character but I play Cody anyway lol

I'm also of the belief that the SNES Turtles in Time Is better too, for similar reasons (better balance), but also the gameplay itself is not the floaty crap both TMNT arcade games suffer from.
