There's no skill in a majority of these longplays, save states are used. Unless you see someone on an actual console 1 lifing the game without being hit once, it's not wise to call someone that who has game breaking tools at their disposal.
Doug Almonte lol the same thing i remember!! XD when i first played this game? i also had bought me the CIB of Wizards & Warriors 3 back than? everything was retro. XD
This is, IMHO, the best of the NES TMNT games. It expanded on what TMNT II: The Arcade Game did and the ability to choose another Turtle after dying is a great way to use the other three without restarting the game.
Some of the most amazing NES music to ever come from an official game. After beating the game, I kept this handy for a while just because of the jukebox feature. Memories galore.
RIP MY YOUNG UNCLE WHO BOUGHT THIS GAME FOR MY BIRTHDAY WHEN I WAS 8 OR 9 IN 1993 AND WE PLAYED THIS GAME FOR FEW DAYS TO LEARN HOW TO FINISH IT....life is cruel...
me too i remember it like it was before 1 day but real was before 20 years it was amazing now im in my home and is almost night the sun is so strong before the night and i remember in this time on the day i was with friends on my old and bc tv playing this game it was amazing how i wanna back in time it was so cool
Yeah, I don't know anyway of beating Shredder outside leaning on the special attack's invincibility frames. You can't really do it any other way. For Super Shredder anyways. The timing is almost as hard to get right on the regular Shredder fight. Still easier than Turtles 2's Shredder though.
9:55 Wait, did the TMNT jumped from that boat to the bridge? That’s some serious jumping right there, I knew Splinter taught them to be a ninja team (said the tmnt theme) but I didn’t know he also taught them to break gravity laws.
I remember playing this when I was 7 years old (2006-2007) with my elder brother i was the button masher Ralph and he was that smart leo lol, I always got stuck in the mob he use to get me out of it and use to tell me how to handle the mobs we played this for so many hours of our summer days we use call some funny names for the boss villains (that must be every gamer ever I guess) man those were some good days :) but still now me and my brother usually play Tekken 7 once in a week ^_^
Out of all the TMNT games (Arcades included), this game right here is my absolute favorite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game of all time. It just had everything in it, from beautifully detailed 8-bit levels that the NES could muster in its time, absolutely terrific and memorable soundtrack of music (Bridge of Danger level 3 being my favorite, and the rooftop level fight theme being my second favorite, then the boss theme Crazy Attack being third favorite), and an assortment of standout bosses from both the TV Cartoon show of the 80’s, Comics and the live action movie sequel, and finally the Turtles all have special attacks that make each one of them different in their own way. My only flaw with this game was wishing it was 4-players during it’s time and wishing that you could fight Bebop and Rocksteady together at the same time after defeating them in their first respectable encounters in a later level, as well as Tokka and Razar after their first respectable encounters too. That would have been cool, but other than that, this game is an absolute masterpiece of a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game and beat em up game in general, it’s replay value is through the roof and sadly this was the pinnacle of the greatest time for the TMNT franchise and fanbase. I could argue that SNES/Arcade Version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV Turtles in Time was the final home run for the franchise and sadly after that, our heroes in a half shell medium would slowly start trekking downhill from that point on 😔, and it was sad to live through, but positively euphoric to be there as a young kid fan during the start of the rise to popularity and fame and unforgettable memories that will forever live with each and every one of us now. Despite all the bad things going on now in the current era of time, and the badly manufactured and corporate era of video games and toxic fans that try to manipulate people into either becoming a fan like them to these new video games, or simply written off as a hater that doesn’t deserve to live in their eyes, just for simply disagreeing with them and not particularly liking the video games out now or the direction that most franchises in gaming are going nowadays. Despite all the sad downfall of modern video games in today’s realistic looking video game era, we still live on in this new world with our great past memories of these retro video games and the joy they brought us and the world, every one of us has a special assortment of memories from this era of gaming that make us happy and always linger in our mind as a time where everything made sense, everything was fun, everyone was fun and understanding and it is why people still talk about these times, and modern video game developers try to replicate the formula and style of these times but just can’t, although I could argue that there are view that do actually replicate it perfectly and create standout video games, but those developers are very very rare in these modern times. (Sorry for this long comment, I just felt like giving much praise to an unforgettable masterpiece of a video game and the times that it was created in, and in my opinion, we were very very lucky and grateful to grow up and live through one of the greatest eras of time, and we should always cherish that, at least I know that I do 😊).
@1:26, it's really nice seeing the twin towers on a videogame and even in movies and tv shows... they were so iconic and is also what reminded you of New York besides the Statue of liberty.
Boas lembranças da minha infância, jogava era muito no meu vídeo game que não era NES e sim TURBO GAME, nunca conseguia zerar sem morrer, me lembro que a primeira vez que zerei foi com um amigo de infância que já não vejo ah anos.
i remember playing this in my childhood, though i had some weird rom where i had much more lives than usual 3 you get at the start of the game, i don't know, something around 30 maybe apart from that, every 'k' letter in the game was replaced with 'z' and every 'm' with 'x', like mike → xize, new york → new yorz etc. other than that it had no graphic changes, was fully playable and beatable
I really liked this one and the first one best on NES. The second one was cool in the arcade, but the NES version of it was the weakest Turtles game on NES - it and Tournament Fighters.
+joelawson33 Agree. TMNT 1 was innovative and challenging. TMNT 2 was the most amazing arcade of its' day, but a dud NES game (Tournament Fighters on NES was such a late release, nobody seems to remember it). Manhattan Project isn't as great a game as TMNT 1, but it is probably the highest quality beat em up on NES next to Double Dragon II.
If Shredder has the resources to build all those robots, traps, machines and even lift up an entire city, why he takes the hassle to dominate the world? He could simply buy the world, normal humans are more than willing to sell everything (including their souls) for the right price.
They were made robots for the 80's cartoon. The network didn't want the image of humans being beaten with nunchucks and Bo staffs and stabbed with kitanas and sais.
calvin murray I make love to this game. Why is it so underrated? Now I want to break things. The bosses were the coolest thing ever and so hard to beat. So wait, at least you know Turtles in Time, right? I want you to emulate The Manhattan Project. It's main strengths are the overall level design that presents a ton of 'foot soldier' variations, amazing art design and a stellar soundtrack!
Far more than I can say in a YT comment, but the gist of it was to make the games unplayable- This one had bosses with doubled health, and a Shredder with infinite health. Bucky O'Hare set the game to Hard mode (regardless of difficulty) which meant one hit killed. Esper Dream 2 had bosses with infinite health. Konami's anti-piracy were among the nastiest.
I couldn't get sharks with lasers on their heads, so I stole Manhattan Island instead...oh, and a random news reporter. Demands? No, I don't actually have any of those.
I have a question. I have the game, I don't know if it's original or not. But when I'm playing the game it gets slow if there are a lot of enemies. It is normal?
Cuzjudd maybe because palcom was busy porting castlevania 3 at the time, or it maybe because of the lackluster sales of NES consoles, plenty of reasons
Shredder Has Stolen Manhattan And Kidnapped April O'Neil! Only The Heroes In A Half Shell Can Save Manhattan And Stop Shredder And Krang! And Now, Get Ready To Kick Some Shell Again, In Konami's Video Game For Your Nintendo Entertainment System, TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 3 THE MANHATTAN PROJECT!
I know you can hit him whiles he's in the cart, but I'm not sure that special did any damage in the clip. I think I used to get him with a couple of flying kicks as he went by.
Yeah, Konami games had the worst anti-piracy measures, and you guys found a lot of them. Yeah I've seen Dendy Chronicles and such. That must have been weird.

You beat this game without any deaths. You're the greatest to ever live
There's no skill in a majority of these longplays, save states are used. Unless you see someone on an actual console 1 lifing the game without being hit once, it's not wise to call someone that who has game breaking tools at their disposal.
Still remember spring of 93 playing this..
Doug Almonte
lol the same thing i remember!! XD
when i first played this game? i also had bought me the CIB of Wizards & Warriors 3
back than? everything was retro. XD
This is, IMHO, the best of the NES TMNT games. It expanded on what TMNT II: The Arcade Game did and the ability to choose another Turtle after dying is a great way to use the other three without restarting the game.
Yes swear
Even to this date, after playing games numbering in the high hundreds, it is still one of the games I have the most fun playing.
Some of the most amazing NES music to ever come from an official game. After beating the game, I kept this handy for a while just because of the jukebox feature. Memories galore.
I agree. there aren't nearly enough covers of those tracks, while there are tons of Turtles 4 covers, which had great bgm as well.
🍕 Pizza
Cawabanga !!!
0:23 I did NOT expect that voice clip in an Nes game
I remember this being hard as hell playing it with my friend when we were kids. You make it look like childs play.
🍕 Pizza
Cawabanga !!!
RIP MY YOUNG UNCLE WHO BOUGHT THIS GAME FOR MY BIRTHDAY WHEN I WAS 8 OR 9 IN 1993 AND WE PLAYED THIS GAME FOR FEW DAYS TO LEARN HOW TO FINISH IT....life is cruel...
If a game is fun, you do not need good graphics. Gotta love some of these NES gems!
1:06 "Here in New York, crime is escalating every day." Damn you, De Blasio!
Cry =( I remember my old days playing this game
me too i remember it like it was before 1 day but real was before 20 years it was amazing now im in my home and is almost night the sun is so strong before the night and i remember in this time on the day i was with friends on my old and bc tv playing this game it was amazing how i wanna back in time it was so cool
When I was kid and my brother play this game, we can never beat Shredder (level 6)
We never got past shredder
susah ya bro 😂
Some pirated software has a bug when facing shredder, he cannot die, after blinking near death it suddently fresh again after some damage
Yeah, I don't know anyway of beating Shredder outside leaning on the special attack's invincibility frames.
You can't really do it any other way.
For Super Shredder anyways.
The timing is almost as hard to get right on the regular Shredder fight.
Still easier than Turtles 2's Shredder though.
This probably being pirated cartridge with immortal Shredder.
Одна из лучших игр на 8 битной платформе! конечно приходилось играть в хакнутую версию с не убиваймым шредером, но сколько было драйва!
densir84 аааааа блин! Так вот почему он не убивался! А я думал, какую хитрость применить. Психовал, искал ответы) нашел сейчас, спустя.... 15 лет😂
Да уж! Шреддер это была жопопораздирающая боль.помигает,помигает и опять как новенький.Как только не пытались в детстве)
Походу, одному мне повезло в нормальную версию с братьями рубиться с 1992го по 1995й... Какое время было клёвое... И оно уже не вернётся никогда...
Joe Hunt & Patrick Hunt used to play this game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: The Project Manhattan. (Beginning)
9:55 Wait, did the TMNT jumped from that boat to the bridge? That’s some serious jumping right there, I knew Splinter taught them to be a ninja team (said the tmnt theme) but I didn’t know he also taught them to break gravity laws.
Have you never done that before its easy

1996 me and my homies playing this like crazy
All of the TMNT games of NES & SNES are awesome.
Best game EVER!
Patrick and me used to play this game on NES.
this was the best game in 1993 and still is today thanks for the upload played this game when we rented it a billion times and beated it
Amazing gameplay! You managed to finish without losing a single life! Brilliant!
Ohh that intro n that soundtrack.. so cool.. Miss those days!
The music in the bridge level is my favorite in the game. But, every song in the game is freaking fantastic!
Me too
Joe and me used to play this game on NES
After plowing 2 NES adventures, 2 Game Boy games, and 2 arcade games, the heroes in a half-shell, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles need some R and R.
Just Perfect!!! I played this GREAT GAME with my old brother in the NES about 20 years ago hahah!!!!Greattings from Argentina!!
jfc the nostalgia
I just kept going "omg I remember" lol
At 51:25....IT'S THE SUPER SHREDDER!!!😱
@1:26, it's really nice seeing the twin towers on a videogame and even in movies and tv shows... they were so iconic and is also what reminded you of New York besides the Statue of liberty.
Wow, thanks for uploading! I play this game when i was child. :(
Dark Prince: I shall return you din't have seen yet last of me
Boas lembranças da minha infância, jogava era muito no meu vídeo game que não era NES e sim TURBO GAME, nunca conseguia zerar sem morrer, me lembro que a primeira vez que zerei foi com um amigo de infância que já não vejo ah anos.
tb tenho lembranças dele, mas com o dynavision 3. alugava ele no fim de semana e me divertia, somente com esse jogo.
I remember playing this when it was on display at Toys R Us.
i remember playing this in my childhood, though i had some weird rom where i had much more lives than usual 3 you get at the start of the game, i don't know, something around 30 maybe
apart from that, every 'k' letter in the game was replaced with 'z' and every 'm' with 'x', like mike → xize, new york → new yorz etc.
other than that it had no graphic changes, was fully playable and beatable
I totally forgot this game existed!
Nostalgia :')
Dat intro gave me a Goosebumps.
TMNT 2 was great too.
When I was 3 I played this game and now I am 10
I am missing this game because my father sold it😢😢😢😭😭😭
Magistral juego
Great Days of my Life
I played that game a lot.
Great music I remember playing in 1995
ooh thnx its take me bck to my childhood days
I think this game was after the arcade version of Turtles in Time, but before the Snes version
I really liked this one and the first one best on NES. The second one was cool in the arcade, but the NES version of it was the weakest Turtles game on NES - it and Tournament Fighters.
+joelawson33 Agree. TMNT 1 was innovative and challenging.

Manhattan Project isn't as great a game as TMNT 1, but it is probably the highest quality beat em up on NES next to Double Dragon II.
i just remember when i reached stage 6 stuck in boss shredder wont died i killed him 25 times !! and finally realize that my disk has the problem
Ałi • same)))
He would turn red and again come back to normal health for me
>Choosing Leo instead of Ralph
Why do you hate life?
Feels weird to see the old wtc in the intro
If Shredder has the resources to build all those robots, traps, machines and even lift up an entire city, why he takes the hassle to dominate the world? He could simply buy the world, normal humans are more than willing to sell everything (including their souls) for the right price.
I remember having problems with slash.
always wondered why the foot soldiers explode
They were made robots for the 80's cartoon. The network didn't want the image of humans being beaten with nunchucks and Bo staffs and stabbed with kitanas and sais.
Dude, they're robot created by both Shredder and Krang!!! I I remember it on the very first episode.
I had already jumped to SNES and turtles in time by the time this came out.
This was worth it, though. Buying a cart for your NES! I played it as early as '92.
Lucky lol. These games were the shit.

Konami's anti-piracy were among the nastiest.
8 Scenes.
Razar looks like Andross from Star Fox in this game. XD
go ninja go ninja go

Maybe best game on nes
The Best game the turtles... perfecttt perfect
So does Leo's special move allow you to dodge the bolts?
That was a damn slick Krang strat btw.
Hah, was he unkillable in Dendy cartriges? I don't think we ever got to fight him with friends, or they did it without me.
52:08
Super Shredder: AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😫😵
Never got a chance to play this one. Looks cool though ^^
Leonardo moves are too OP
I have a question. I have the game, I don't know if it's original or not. But when I'm playing the game it gets slow if there are a lot of enemies. It is normal?
Joguei muito no meu Dynavision 3, tinha todas as fases decoradas. Um clássico!
Eu tinha um Turbo Game, um console bem parecido com o Dynavision 3, mas feito pela CCE. E eu também tinha esse jogo, adorava jogar com meu irmão. ^^
This is better than TMNT 4
my dad did rent me this videogame and l liked this videogame my friends
i like the ninja turtles
I agree I am a big fan of the ninja turtles they are so awesome 😎
Is this original?
Was this released on PAL systems? How on Earth did I miss this as a kid?
Nope, never released in Europe
KILLER MEMESTAR That's why lol. I wonder why not?
Cuzjudd maybe because palcom was busy porting castlevania 3 at the time, or it maybe because of the lackluster sales of NES consoles, plenty of reasons
Yes savestate
I never did get to play this game a friend that I went to elementary school had it for his NES but I never did get my hands on a copy :(
Shredder Has Stolen Manhattan And Kidnapped April O'Neil! Only The Heroes In A Half Shell Can Save Manhattan And Stop Shredder And Krang! And Now, Get Ready To Kick Some Shell Again, In Konami's Video Game For Your Nintendo Entertainment System, TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 3 THE MANHATTAN PROJECT!
The score reaches 999900!!!
I think this player needs my assistance. Ok press start for player 2 lol ^_^.
Yep!
Million points!!!
Yeah, you are probably right. :)
Before, nes.
How about actually giving us some strategies for these bosses instead of just spamming the special move? Would've been really helpful, ya know.
cool hack'n'slash turtles game. Best on nes
Thanks to pirates I could not kill the shredder.
COWABUNGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
19:53 does doing the special then actually cause damage?
I know you can hit him whiles he's in the cart, but I'm not sure that special did any damage in the clip. I think I used to get him with a couple of flying kicks as he went by.
no
I,m Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 champion
What does the [443] on the name of the video means?
The 443rd NES longplay, imncluding Famicom games, that they have done for the console.
Yeah, Konami games had the worst anti-piracy measures, and you guys found a lot of them. Yeah I've seen Dendy Chronicles and such. That must have been weird.
33:40 dies that easily ??? How i remember i got insane and i never beat him
was this before or after TIT?
Man i play all and Lose to final boss,never play leo because his special move not good to fight boss esspecial shredder
Lol, Rahzer.
What kind of anti-piracy measures did Konami games have that made them so bad?
23:16
Me: Aw man!!!!! I HATE those Mousers!!!!!!!!
Why is there the (a) in the title?
I wish I'd had this as a kid instead of the terrible first game.
