Nostalgia Longplays
If by some off chance miracle we get a TMNT Cowabunga Collection 2 , which is composed of all 6 Konami made 2003 TMNT series of games; I hope they add 4 player coop to the first console game and fix the issues of the 2nd game (like no more shared energy and controls on par with the first 2003 console game).
It wouldn't be called Cowabunga Collection because the term was rarely used
I grew up a little after the ‘90s Turtle Mania, but I grew up with the ‘03 Turtles and I had 2 older brothers who were in the middle of ‘90s Turtle Mania. My brothers had an old Sega Genesis with Hyperstone Heist that was handed down to me. My first introduction to TMNT was from Hyperstone Heist, so that was my TMNT game. A little later I had TMNT 2: Battle Nexus on the PS2. Eventually I discovered the ‘89 TMNT Arcade on that game. It was just like the Genesis one, but better! Wow, so cool! Imagine my surprise to find out this Arcade game came out BEFORE Hyperstone Heist, and it even had a sequel on Arcade and SNES called Turtles in Time which was what Hyperstone Heist was based off of. It was so crazy to have been close enough to that era to have nostalgia for it, but far enough removed that I didn’t experience it quite the same as everyone else.
So, people can criticize Hyperstone Heist for reusing assets and being different from TIT, or the change in music or the new V/As in the ‘89 Arcade, but I’m grateful The Arcade game was included in this title, even with the unfortunate compromises. It made me aware that my favorite childhood game wasn’t just a great game, but the last in a great series of games - and it probably wasn’t even the best one! When Cowabunga Collection comes out, I’ll finally get to try some of the TMNT games I still missed as a kid, like the GB ones and Tournament Fighters. It’s a bodacious time to be a Konami TMNT fan right now!
The original arcade game being unlockable in this game was the prime selling point for me. Though I was disappointed that not only was the music changed, but the voices were gone. I felt cheated.
I have Mutant Nightmare on the Gamecube. It’s a decent game, but Turtles in Time is HEAVILY butchered in it! They not only replaced the soundtrack with tunes from other 2K3 Turtles games (I recognised 2 tracks from the DS version of Mutant Nightmare!) but the framerate is slow and choppy, they removed scoring and they redid the voices, those redone voices being AWFUL!
You didnt mention that the ports of the classic arcade games had completely different soundtracks due to copyright... which was super generic and made them pretty disappointing and not appealing.
That thumbnail had me genuinely pissing myself !!!! Brilliant matey, love it !!!!! 😉😆
Shredders Revenge is the first TMNT Game that I've truly liked since the og arcade game... Great upload
I have Konami’s first 2K3 Turtles game, Mutant Melee and Mutant Nightmare on the Gamecube! They’re decent games but they show signs that Konami were losing the spark they had in the 90s. Battle Nexus I have a demo of the Xbox version and I thought it was decent too!
'Mutant Nightmare' almost got it right. It was an improvement over 'Battle Nexus' in some respects, but still had A few things holding it back, and by this point, it was too little, too late. Had the earlier games had the same 4 player set up as 'Mutant Nightmare', ditched the AI controlled players, and had simpler, more satisfying game play, they could've been more well received.
These 2003 Turtles game sure look good and the beat-em-up actions looks fun. Looks worth a try at least.
Hearing Top Hat Gaming Man say "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" in his reviews of TNMT game the past couple of years made me nearly forget that the franchise used to be called "Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles" in the UK. Especially since he used to refer to the "Hero" name when mentioning the series in many of his earlier videos.
I thought that the version that these games were based on were called "Ninja" in the UK, too.
The earlier games yes, the Uk seemed to relax a little in later years with the word ‘ninja’
I cant wait for you covering Mutant Nightmare. cause I personally adored that game, and find it to be the best of the three.
I played this Turtles game back in the day. I never could beat it.
This is FAR from the worst one. First of all, it's a VAST improvement over its previous entry, and secondly, Mutant Melee, that atrocious Power Stone-style mess, exists.
It was garbage. While Mutant Melee wasn't good either AT LEAST it was only $20 brand new on release so it's not that much of a huge sting. Battle Nexus was a full price $50 release.
@@jediknightgeo For real?
To be honest, I feel like TMNT 2 Battle Nexus was a pretty fun game, nothing more or less.
Critics were exaggerated and overly nostalgic, and the 6/10 by IGN is a "revision" since the original one was 5/10 pretty much saying the same thing GameSpot did.
After playing the game so many times, I can safely assume that the problems of the game are indeed true, but are justifiable under certain points of view to me.
The controls being less responsive where probably made to make the little platforming sessions slightly more challenging, and the relatively dumb AI of the enemies (bosses have a sharper AI) are probably meant for making the game more casual considering the addition of the 4 playable characters. I mean, I would personally dislike enemies too smart when playing coop, as my friend might not be as good as I am, and it could end up the fun quickly.
It's a quirky game, but it's still pretty enjoyable, especially in coop goofing around with your friends or brother/sister!
Also, I know it won't really matter to the gameplay, but the OST is top notch, and I don't understand how almost NOBODY mentions it when talking about this game.
Looking forward to your video on Mutant Nightmare! Usually considered the most polished out of the three PS2 main line TMNT games.
I remember fans being far more disappointed with the 2nd rate ports of the arcade game than the main campaign… which was just sorta “meh.”
Waiting on that TMNT movie videogame review. Wait, unless you covered it?
I feel like I need to play this to see for myself as watching the footage it doesn't look that bad.
They need to make an X-Men game with the shredder's revenge engine or streets of rage that would be fucking sick
I'd be careful, because if the rumors are true, they'd probably rename that game 'The Mutants'.
Battle Nexus is the worst Turtles from Konami? I thought for sure were going to talk about Mutant Melee, for the Gamecube and Xbox, I remember actually liking this game, even with the modified Arcade Game version of the game...
I actually feel that Battle Neux is better than their PC port Manhattan Mission. At least it doesn't take multiple buttons to draw out your weapon to battle and you aren't dead once you finally figure out how to get your weapon drawn. This game your weapon is already drawn and ready for battle just like all the other Turtles games
It's funny you mention the arcade tmnt game since we will be getting it in The Cowabunga Collection
Jesus fuck that thumbnail is nightmare fuel
I thought you are gonna talk about that terrible NES TMNT game but this is the 2003 TMNT version of the Konami's long gone but now brought back to life license game series of ninja turtles.
I really like the NES game.
@@TopHatGamingManChannel hey, you should also talk about obscure arcade fighting games such as Rabbit, Waku Waku 7, Asura Blade which are one of my favorites.
I would not worry to much regarding covering this particular topic as I am pretty sure it's been covered lots of times by various others over the years.
Tmnt 2003 1st game is the best, because it's challenging for beat n up game, and it's 60 fps even for ps2. But later 2nd and 3rd are 30 fps, kinda slow and doesn't feel excitement compare to the 1st game. The 3rd one doesn't even have pc version, somehow disappointment
Meanwhile gba version 1 is fun to play but too short, 2 is longer but more stealth element than beat n up. The 3rd one is great but only for nds with adding some touch screen system
Without further ado-ken, missed catchphrase opportunity.
Please talk bout pit fighter,guardians of the hood,dungeons & dragons:tower of doom & shadow over mystara arcade games,the bouncer & urban reign on ps2,mortal kombat shaolin monks,scott pilgrim vs the world game,dragon's crown,& mighty morphin power rangers mega battle
I hope that one day the 2003 Turtles will get a new game, ala Shredder's Revenge
I would love for that to be the follow up to Shredder's Revenge.
11:44 I wouldn't even consider these "reviews" since they don't explain or detail why the game is bad.
Didn’t realize this one wasn’t liked. My cousins, brothers, and I played the crap out of this one and had a blast. We just didn’t like the shared health
I have a demo of the Xbox version and I thought it was pretty good! I have the full Gamecube versions of the other 3 2K3 Turtles games and although not the best games in the franchise, fun can be had with them!
Never saw any reviews for it? It was VERY badly received.
People actually liked this one better than some other tmnt games that came in that era so it's incorrect calling this one the worst, it's decent for its time
@@wanded that era? The only other TMNT games to come out was the prequel and sequel to this, Mutant Melee & the TMNT movie based game. None of them were nothing to write home about.
@@jediknightgeo yes, like i said this game wasn't the worst of its era
Pretty sure everybody knows not to take any reviews from Game Spy or IGN seriously. That's like taking a review from Helen Keller about how good or bad a movie or game is seriously.
I am not a fan of PS2 TMNT games. For me they are great step back from 8bit and 16bit predecessors. The first 2000th game was OK but not super. The second was better for me bacause of much mo content. But the worst for me is the TMNT3 the Mutant Nightmare. This realy not good game...
I had a thought: what if there was a rhythm-based TMNT game? Like Friday Night Funkin' or something like that.
The recent TMNT game sux vs the old arcade and even the snes versions
That thumbnail is... CURSED!
I hate the color palette and voices of the 2002 show. I've tried to watch it and only got through season 1 and a little of 2. I just can't power through it
And I did like TMNT 2003 I did like the cartoon and I did like the game based on the 2003 cartoon
The absolute STATE of the og costumes 😫
My friend Lady Decade sent me here. Maybe you’ve heard of her?
I really didn’t that this one will be worse than the NES game. I’ve saw this game in Matt McMuscles play through in his Flop House channel,and it’s very boring looking. The gameplay isn’t good and fun to watch.
Can hardly wait for mutant nightmare!
THanks bro!
top hat meets top cat
This game really was trash. Instead of improving on the mechanics of the first game, which was kinda solid, if a bit repetitive, they threw that all out to turn it into a janky beat em up/platformer hybrid where you have to unlock your basic combo. The animated cutscenes they produced just for this game were cool though. Clearly that's where all the budget went.
try the 2007 TMNT game
Hard disagree being the worst game.
Imo the worst is the TMNT game from 2007 on consoles
Chicken chicken chicken Chihuahua Chihuahua
Dude if you are a fan over the 2003 series, you love this game and the entire trilogy. The controls are pretty fucked compared to the other 2 games, but this game is a thousand times better than any 2D side scrolling bet em up. Nostalgia is so annoying when it’s used to try to be objective. Not knocking the reviewer, guy actually gave plenty of props. Just sad these games get written off when they’re fundamentally miles better than the ‘classics’
The way the game reviews basically only gushed about the 2D game. Like, focus on the game you’re supposed to review, not the bonus content!
The game is no masterpiece, but it’s definitely entertaining and I love it.
Also, I really don’t get how this one got worse reviews than the first one when it actively improved many things from it.
I rather just play teenage mutant Ninja turtles 4 turtles in Time for SNES
The PC version did not have the arcade version at all. Of course, PC players at that time were always deprived of additional content that had console versions of games (say thanks for the fact that the game was released at all on PC).
To be fair, we’ve been able to play the original arcade game on PCs for a lot longer than even this games release. MAME says hi.
My favorite of the trilogy. So cool.
I loved this game beat it and got 100%
I think this game is ok
Funny, my copy of this game came in the mail today. I'm trying to check out the turtles games from the 2000s. I have heard mixed reception surrounding these ones, and I did not know the existence of Mutant Melee until recently. I'll have to see where I stand with this one, as well as its predecessor if I get it, and the third game.
Yeah this game was poop, thanks for reminding me I bought this game LOL, keep up the great work
Omg omg omg
The GBA version was way better
I thought the 3rd game in this series was worse, Mutant Nightmare. Still enjoyed these games more than the TMNT movie game which was done by Activision if I'm not mistaken
I personally thought they only got better as each new one came; 2 was a vast improvement over the boringness and annoyingness of 1, and 3 added some more excitement than 2. So it was always weird to me that reviews kept giving them lower and lower scores.
you don't know what communist means
Pointless video that just leeches off material of the others.
They don't get it right? The guys that made streets of rage 4 did it right, u can do 3d models but the rest is has to be like before... no 3d movement it's just put 3d models inside and old school beat em up, with the mechanics of that old school beat em up, i'm sure that many of the people that bought that game was for the unlockable original arcade one
