This game was so excellent! Amazing sound effects, it sounded like it had echo on it! And the graphics were so much on point plus the gameplay was fluid! Konami sure knew how to make amazing games!
This was the 2nd hardest Gameboy game for me in my collection. The big issue was the confusing layout, required items/objectives, and respawning enemies meant you ran around getting whacked as you tried to figure out where to go. What's worse, this was in the days before the Internet, and I lacked the Nintendo Power issue to assist me. The hardest game by far though was Double Dragon III. That game was so bad and difficult. Huge disappointment over the prior two Double Dragon's.
It's a damn shame they didn't put difficulty levels in this game like they did on its predecessor, Back from the Sewers. Difficulty levels really help me master a game. On Back from the Sewers, I started off on Easy which took me a while to beat because honestly, it's a pretty difficult game. Then I tried Normal & I finally just beat that the other day. Now I'm on Hard & I haven't beaten it yet but have made it to the last level. Even beating it on Normal was quite an accomplishment for me so if I can beat it on Hard, I will be so proud of myself.
not "final boss" but "the last password we the developers will give you as this last gauntlet is our expression of *hate* for you. good luck, as we don't even give you a full restore pizza. so if you want any chance whatsoever, backtrack through some lasers for the pizza, and marathon the previous bosses, plus the two final forms. good luck asshole. "
This was always one of my favorite Ninja Turtles game for Game Boy. Loved the Metroid elements where you have the open world map and you gained new powers (on here, in the form of rescuing your comrades). All-in-all, great video.
Played this whren I was a kid. When I finally defeated Shredder's initial bar of hit points. I was like "wow finally beat this game!". But after Shredder recharge his health to full again...I was like "Damn!!!"
this was epic! I'm so happy I was able to find a walkthrough for this game, for me literally this was the hardest game I had ever played, I always got lost in the mazes and maybe saved one turtle and beat 2 bosses maximum xD
Contrary to the previous TMNT game boy games, this one is very good. It's not as "deep" as a Metroid but it's really impressive for its time, especially for a licensed game. Good gameplay, good musics, interesting boss battles, good level design. Not really easy, not really hard. Very balanced challenge (except the very end, which is a bit punitive but rewarding anyway) Also, it's a shame that Michelangelo is not credited before Leonardo at the end, he is the main character of this game after all.
the very end sours this game for me. it's like, the worst example of a boss rush i have ever seen. all the previous bosses, plus the final boss which has two lifebars. waste your full pizza ANYWHERE but shredders second life bar, then you pretty much lost. oh and the password is insulting. not only does it start you at the beginning of this gauntlet, if you want to stand any level of chance, you have to backtrack through lasers just to get a full pizza. but make sure you don't get hit *at all* on the way back. i dare you to try to get through this hell without the extra life pizza. then call it rewarding when all you get is a standard ending.
So Leonardo in Blue can drill to get underground, Donatello in Purple can climb walls to reach elevated places, Michelangelo in Orange can fly and float over pits, and Raphael in Red can slide under tight spaces.
Donnie also had a separate set of climbing claws he kept on him, which he used often in the movies. I'm not sure if he did in the comics. That's probably why his ability and Raph's are the way they are in the game.
This is the version I had on Gameboy. I still have the Nintendo Power issue with the map and the order of the rooms to go to. It's the Ninja Turtles version of Metroid. A very good classic game with great graphics and music.
Probably *THE FIRST METROIDVANIA made by Konami* - and made by a lot of the same people that made Castlevania Sotn. Even better than Metroid 2 and any Castlevania on the Gameboy, ironically.
+Cristiano don't forget Simon's Quest was released in 1987. Vampire Killer, released for the MSX one year before, has arguably plenty of metroidvania elements also.
+World of Longplays (cubex55) Well the term Metroidvania wasn't until the Castlevania exploration games since it used a similar map system to Metroid. Hence the vania in Metroidvania. And this game was released between Metroid and SOTN.
@@Nordischsound metroid 2 has a somw clunky controls and a slow progression and not having a map makes it even worse and don't forget crap mini bosses. Samus returns thankfully corrects everything wrong with the original.
This show was so big in the early 90s that every kid of that time remembers the names of the main characters. For how many shows of your childhood can you do that? Some will say Batman and superman or X men, but those were reinforced with mentions from a gazillion other platforms of the franchise.
I got this game in JP version back in 2002, still managed to beat the game just 100% figuring things out. No walkthroughs, guides, even the demo only plays the first map- good old days.
It's nice watching back all the playthrough of different childhood games. I'm wondering if any of you had sweaty palms and hearts kept beating quickly while playing GB/other game consoles?
this was way too hard for me as a kid. the metroid style level alone broke my brain. and this prisoner cat killed me a thousand times. only way to see the other turtles for me was to brutforce passwords.
Fall of the foot clan is the first. Then Back from the Sewers. And then Radical Rescue. I just played through the first two. Want to play this one next once I find it for a good price.
Just finished this on the Cowabunga Collection and it really was the best TMNT gameboy game. Plus the updated map with icons was much more helpful than just “dots” in the original release. My only gripe was I wish April was the 2nd to last person to be rescued instead of Splinter. Wouldn’t it have made more sense to have Shredder(Cyber or not) keep a closer eye on his rival, Hamato Yoshi?
Well in a sense you could say Don used a suction cup device to climb up the walls. Also in the 1987 TMNT show Raphael didn't really like to fight so it would make sense he cramped up in his shell.
Ah, yes. It's Teenage Metroid Ninja Turtles. There's a tiny little piece of me that believes there's an alternate universe out there where Castlevania: Symphony of the Night doesn't exist simply because this game wasn't made. There's technically no tie other than TMNT3's director produced for the C:SotN Saturn port, which means nothing. But I'm allowed my crackpot conspiracy theories!
I had to look it up and apparently "buttle" is a real word that means "to serve as a butler". Probably why their spell check didn't catch it (see @36:26). Gave me a nice random chuckle, love these old game translation errors.
I heard one of the reasons why Michelangelo is the first turtle you use to rescue the others is because there wasn't a 4th version of Tournament fighters so Mikey didn't get to have a cover of his own. So to make it up to Mikey's fans, this is basically his game where he rescues everyone.
“chook chook chook” Mikey was the turtle for the job. I remember an urban legend of there being a possibilty of unlocking playable “Mustard Sphincter. I had spent so much time on this game, yet now it looks soo damn easy.
Meanwhile, Michaelangelo is Returning from the Pizza "joint" that fella is just an chilling guy indeed, man this game is so Freaking Hard i could never Finish that game, Respect if the guy did this without TAS bot
This is one of the most difficult ninja turtle games to play, especially when you’re trying to find your way out of the maze and rescuing everyone from Shredder and his henchmen.
@@hendrysumadi824Man I played through the first two Gameboy games & back from the sewers was actually pretty difficult for me. I don't think there's even any point in me trying this game. I wish I could figure out how to get better at 2D platformers..

25:17 I remember I passed this place without using Donatello at the very beginning of the game...if you jump left to the wall and then immediately turn right, there will be a chance that you can reach the brick....it was an accident, but makes me confused quite a while...
Dude this game was so hard, notice how enemies instantly respawn as soon as they are off the screen. They will eventually wear you down if you don't know where you going.

wallythewhale yeah that's true
same here I'm 31
wallythewhale so am i
we're all halfway to 60, oh no!
I remember this game when I was a kid. I liked it and never could beat it.
1hhhhh2 straight tontje end bro fight all bosses one at a time.. Shredder was fun to fight
1 of my favorite gameboy games as a child. till this day, i still remember the background music and the boss fights. a true classic
This game was so excellent! Amazing sound effects, it sounded like it had echo on it! And the graphics were so much on point plus the gameplay was fluid! Konami sure knew how to make amazing games!
This dude finished the entire game without any damage. So cool!
Used to wrote down passwords for this. Hehe
Just after finishing this on Nintendo Switch, couldn't have done it without this video, Thanks Bud !
Oh it’s on switch ?

Oh wow...I remember playing this so long ago...frustrating at times, but I did manage to finish the whole game once.:D
i still remember the password to the final boss fight is 1HHHHHHHHHHHHH2
The last digit is the number of continues you get.
Lol same here. Too easy to remember
not "final boss" but "the last password we the developers will give you as this last gauntlet is our expression of *hate* for you. good luck, as we don't even give you a full restore pizza. so if you want any chance whatsoever, backtrack through some lasers for the pizza, and marathon the previous bosses, plus the two final forms. good luck asshole.

@@supersmashbro596 Thank you. God I hated that final sequence. What a pain in the ass that was.
loved this game but the boss gaintless was horrible. and super shredder pain
this was the first game i got with my Gameboy. ages ago. back in '93. and my favourite. good times
Hope you kept it box and all lol its rare and pricey these days

Worst game of the 3 Game Boy games. Always go with side scrolling.
@rocket grunt I don't understand it myself. I still regret buying it almost 30 years ago at Toys R Us. I'm not even sure why I kept my childhood copy.
@rocket grunt Like every other kid, I threw mine away lol. Just the game and instructions have always been important to me.
@rocket grunt Between getting lost and the bosses. I can't play lol. Side-scrolling games are best.
@@Wheels8504 stay away from any metroidvanias then lol
Played this whren I was a kid. When I finally defeated Shredder's initial bar of hit points. I was like "wow finally beat this game!".
But after Shredder recharge his health to full again...I was like "Damn!!!"
Hahaha same
What took me days to complete, you did in 50min, without getting hit.
Cowabanga!
I have wrote some of the passwords on my drawer when I was little. Damn I'm so old.
"A year has passed since Shredder was defeated...."
Finally can beat this game.
Love that these are coming to the cowabunga collection
Hopefully there will be a save and map function.
My favorite TMNT game!
cavabanga)
Good practice for fighting games
Me too : D
This game takes me back 25 years… I used to bring my gameboy to the school so I could play this, without my parents knowing. Very good times…
Little did they know, some time in the distant future, Michelangelo years later would become the last one standing once more
I still remember I can't beat the fucking final boss.
my childhood right here, thanks for uploading it :D never got this far but man did i love this game when i was young
This Shredder is amazing. Is the final enemy with more style.
this was epic! I'm so happy I was able to find a walkthrough for this game, for me literally this was the hardest game I had ever played, I always got lost in the mazes and maybe saved one turtle and beat 2 bosses maximum xD
I'm in ny 40s now and I loved running across this. Spent many hrs as a early teen playing this.. so cool to see again..

Excellent you went through the whole game without getting hit.
It’s not that hard to play without getting hit

So Leonardo in Blue can drill to get underground, Donatello in Purple can climb walls to reach elevated places, Michelangelo in Orange can fly and float over pits, and Raphael in Red can slide under tight spaces.
Yup, I feel like they should have flipped Raph and Donnie's abilities though. Makes more sense to climb with Sais.
Donnie also had a separate set of climbing claws he kept on him, which he used often in the movies. I'm not sure if he did in the comics. That's probably why his ability and Raph's are the way they are in the game.
36:18 "...so focus your powers and prepare for buttle!" Nice misspelling there, Master Splinter.

i just remember about this game today.... man the nostalgia playing this on gameboy with AA batteries that always running out
The best to this game randomly came in my head and I had to try find it again.

one of the hardest games i have ever played. And who needs tutorials in a video game anyway?
