And to add to that last point.
If you finish the game with Donatello, you get to see him with the machine while Michaelangelo dances in his power up saying "Party Dude" referencing the original song.
The intro song also playing at the beginning of each game, yet unique at the same time.
I,of course, spotted the homage to not just the Turtles In Time game but to the SNES itself. Flinging your opponent toward the screen is from the original Turtles In Time game but it also was a reference to "mode 7", the SNES's ability to simulate 3D in it's graphics which was one of the selling points of the system.
Which is why there's the in-game achievement "Mode 7".
Splinter's pizza power move animation also looks like the Tatsumaki Senpukyaku from Street Fighter
2:50 - Let's be clear: she's not disgusted by pizza in general, but by the bizarre topping combinations the turtles are using in the scene.
Nah dude it’s pizza in general. Other episodes have proven that’s normal.
Yeah including chocolate sprinkles, guacamole, peanut butter, marshmallows, pickles, something a 5-year old would like perhaps.
@@SantiagoY3569 - Splinter is supposed to hate pizza, too, but it's inconsistent. There have been several instances in the series where April and Splinter are seen enjoying pizza alongside the Turtles.
Correct, because she does give in and ask for a slice at the end of the pilot episode.
@@whatifguy9675 Don't forget the gumdrops.
another nod to the 1st NES game is April saying "you have my support" when reviving allies. She said that line CONSTANTLY throughout TMNT on NES.
Oh the horror that is the dock level
Michelangelo’s dodge super is the bicycle kick from Liu Kang. It’s also in TMNT : battle nexus
This game can be beat within two hours, having six characters on screens popping off special after special is seizure inducing, I started falling asleep towards the ends of arcade mode, mindlessly mashing buttons, drifting and being awaken by the GO! alert.
10/10
Game of the Year
A masterpiece.
As a TMNT fan and someone who played Turtles in Time on the SNES for hours on ends as a kid, this game brought a tear to my eyes. I loved every second of it.
How is it 10/10 ?
Graphics outdated, cutscenes boring, and cawabunga and pizza time boring
@@hassanawdi3793 graphics outdated 🤣🤣🤣🤣 clearly the retro went right over this dudes head 🤣🤣
@@hassanawdi3793 Outdated??? Pixel art is far more timeless than PS1 polygons. Those graphics have not aged well
Can you people can please stop feeding the obvious troll?
@@denismaravilha this guy gets it
From the Sushi item you forget to mention that when you get it as Splinter he will say “Yes, quite delicious.”
If you notice when you fight super shredder, the clock in the back displays 3am
Best game in years
The real best tmnt game is having turtles like the ones they appeared in injustice 2
Best game this century so far
Lmao. Its a great game, really great beat em up. I love this game. But century. Stfu lol
Despite the obvious glitch here and there.
@VoltDenatsu i hate when you air dive then get stuck
This game is like a homage to every previous game from the TMNT
2:47 April wasn't disgusted by pizza in that episode. She was disgusted by THEIR pizza (the turtles were known to put gross toppings on their pizzas back then).
Especially Mikey's pizza toppings. ;b
I always laughed at the idea that her choices were pizza with bizarre toppings or a rat handing her raw fish in a sewer and she says “I guess I can hold out till we get up to the street.” Haha
That’s why turtles feel disgusted too for eating sushi cause it’s raw fish..
Serval playable characters we wanted to have for future dlc:
- Mona Lisa
- Usagi Yojimbo
- Lotus Blossom (1987’s version of Karai)
Irma and Zach.
Irma and Zach.
the thing people don't think about is that Usagi would involve some extra hurdles as he's owned by another company...we've been lucky with his repeated appearances in the animated shows, and I do hope it's possible to work something out for him to get added as a DLC character in Shredder's Revenge, but we're probably more likely to see freaking Venus De Milo or the 5th turtle from the IDW comics ( I know she exists but I haven't read any of those comics so I have no clue what her name is or anything ) than Usagi
Mondo Gecko and a playable Metal-Head would be nice.
Jennika as well
Nostalgia at its finest. Really happy with this game and hope this sends a message to developers that pump out lazy rushed games
And yet there are tons of entitled little whiny gamer brats who want releases *NOW NOW NOW.*
@@opo3628 management and deadlines don’t help either
Tossing Foot Soldiers at Chrome Dome is also a reference to Turtles in Time. Moboy's mentioning this but the tigers (the white one) on the zoo level reminded me of the Nes version of the Arcade game. You got a special stage there where white tigers attack you
in the NES version (TMNT II) its a normal level where you encounter them. Level 6-1 I believe. You only fight two tigers I believe but they are notoriously difficult to destroy. Their hitbox is only the head, hitting any other part of their body deals you damage, and they always run across the screen. On top of that, the hitbox is just low enough that hitting them with a special is incredibly tricky to do. And they have a ton of health too.
"Tahka" and "Razor" are not obscure, dude...
I had this stupid grin on my face my entire time playing this game. God I love this franchise and god I love this game. Best Turtles game to date
What do you think of the Turtles being voiced by the same men on the original show?
Michelangelo's jumping super attack is straight out of the first episode of the '87 series (Turtle Tracks). When they're first fighting the Foot on the rooftop and they find out the Foot soldiers are robots he whips off his trench coat and says "Robots?! Let's rock!" and does that same move.
I'm pretty sure Raphael's uppercut move is most likely a shoryuken rather than a guilty gear move.
Little known fact, former WCW/WWE star Kevin Nash played Super Shredder in the second movie
This whole game is a Easter egg with a game inside it, seriously, the side characters alone made me remember stuff I had long forgotten
Mikey was a walking Easter Egg. He had a Liu Kang style bicycle kick, his taunt animation was the dance he did at the end of the song ("Party Dude"), and he's got a dash-attack animation where he pulls into his shell and spins ... like he does *after* the dance party bit, PLUS a Chun-Li style head stomp.
The intro part of the music that plays in the the very first stage (Channel 6 HQ) is a homage to the Channel 6 theme found in Turtles in Time. There's also a reference to the theme from the 2nd stage in Double Dragon.
Pretty sure I heard some Contra 3 Alien wars music in there as well
Michaelangelo’s sprint-slide has him spin on his shell doing a multi-hit stun, just like his shell spin in April’s apartment when the Foot Clan ambushed Raphael.
If you revive someone while playing as April in multiplayer, she will say "You have my support." This is a reference to a line she says in the first NES TMNT game
You didn't mention that Splinter's special is from his opening seen in the 1987 intro from the line "Splinter taught them to be ninja teens (he's a radical rat!)..." That was a great nod for me seeing as he is my favorite character!
The fact they got the original voice actors from the show makes me feel like im 8 years old again! OG Turtle 🐢 power for life! And now all 4 voice actors are coming to Emerald City ComicCon!
Except for James Avery (Shredder)
@@arthursnyder6935 Yep, and same goes for Pat Fraley (original Baxter Stockman/Krang) and Renae Jacobs (April O'Neal).
During the Super Shredder fight, the clock in the back says 3 AM.
Mikey’s taunt is him his introduction moment in the animated intro where he dances before spinning away on his back (which is also in the game).
Splinter’s special is also based on the intro when Donatello says “he’s a radical rat.”
When Raph revives someone with pizza, he says “Hey, get a grip!” which he also says in the intro. When he dies, he says “Gimme a break” as he does during his intro.
Donatello says “Shellshocked” as was the common “dead” line in previous games
I was so happy when I first heard April say “you have my support” after reviving someone. I kinda wish they would’ve leaned more heavily into the Konami TMNT universe than the ‘87 cartoon. They were never quite the same in the original games. Konami couldn’t just get the original VAs and didn’t necessarily design the environments or Turtles to be perfectly on model with the show. It’s difficult to explain, but it’s like the Konami brand of TMNT is just its own thing and it is actually much easier to go back to than the ‘87 cartoon itself
How about Mikey’s drop super. He swings both pairs of chucks like the 1st episode when they fought the robot foot clan
There's also the "3:00 AM:" in the background of the last boss. A cute reference to "Big Aple 3:00 AM" from Turtles in Time.
"Easter Eggs you missed"... We'll start off with an obvious one... If it's obvious, did we miss it?
Not only is there a Big Apple 3PM stage as a nod to Turtles in Time but the final battle takes place in Times Square at 3 AM as you can see from the clock in the background…
Fun fact: There was a line of turtles that could change back and forth from regular turtle to ninja turtle, transformers style. Donatello's version has bo staves that could convert to pogo sticks. Nice Easter egg, IMO.
Easter egg you missed: When Donatello does his emote it's a callback to the Donatello in ROTTMNT when he's on his phone in the 1st episode
It would have been cool if It would have been if tokar and Rahzar where boss characters. Also would have been cool if you could have played as Mona Lisa
They did show up as boss characters. They were that arcade boss’s attackers
When you fight Super Shredder, note the time on the clock in the background. "Big Apple, 3am"
As Andre The Black Nerd pointed out, there's a place in the Coney Island stage where you have to blow up giant balloons of the Punk Frogs, and it's actually a reference to the balloon blowing minigame from... The original Simpsons arcade game that was very much made as a copycat of the original TMNT arcade game.
Oh yeah, and there's the little detain that the final battles are fought in Manhattan under a... red sky. That may be one many Turtles fans didn't WANT to remember.
If you look at the Times Square TV screens in the background of the Super Shredder battle, you'll see that the time is... 3 AM. Big Apple, 3AM.
Talking about the Turtles 80's poses in the last entry, when you beat the game as Donatello his ending screen is a recreated shot of his pose with his machine from the 80's opening,
It's a ridiculously over-sized espresso machine.
@@chrisbgoodv2178 No, it's supposed to be a ridiculously over-sized espresso machine that somehow turns into a rocket LOL.
3:30 Metal Slug 1 reference: when enemy soldiers JUMP towards the screen when the building they're in, collapses!!!!
Why don’t you actually show clips of comparisons for the games and characters referenced. Is this just lazy editing or something ? Even smaller channels do it.
what?
1. April says "You have my support" - this is a reference to the original NES game
2. Casey's last move of combo where he uses a golf club is a nod to when he did that move from the first film against Tatsu
He'll never call golf a dull game again!
You missed Mike's dance.
same with Splinter's pizza power animation
I love playing online with people. Makes me miss playing co-op beat ‘em ups in arcades though.
Did you forgot the turtles where putting breakfast cereal on the pizza as well .
Mikey has an attack where he spins on his shell which is seen in his dance moves in the original cartoon opening. All turtles can also use the side slam attacks from "Turtles in Time." April can use this attack as well and she will pause to take a picture of the fallen Foot Solider on the last slam. Finally, the Statue of Liberty, which Shredder stole in "Turtles in Time" is stolen again. Only this time, Kraag powers up the Statue with tech to create a boss fight.
You missed Splinter doing Ryu and Ken's Tatsumaki Senpukyaku when he picks up the Pizza Power attack.
There's another nice little easter egg: In Chapter 4 (Rumble at The Zoo) there are two black-and-white parrots, which are definitely a nod to the Mirage TMNT comic books.
Big Apple, 3 pm - not the only callback to Turtles in Time’s first stage. If you check the background on the last fight, you’ll see the where and when is Big Apple, 3 am.
Awesome video. The only Easter Egg I noticed that was missing from your list is the top view map, which I'm positive is a reference to the top view map from TMNT on NES.
You talk about Mikey's e honda move but not Lui Kang's bicycle kick
My favorite easter egh was an 80s/90s TV reference you missed was April's co-anchor. They made him look just like the dad on Full House, Danny Tanner, who was a local TV News anchor on Full House. But an even cooler, funnier layer they added to it...
The actor who played Danny Tanner, Bob Saget, had another big TV gig irl, being the host of America's Funniest Home Videos. And in the level where you're at the TV news studio, there's a studio set next to the news studio that looks just like the set of America's Funniest Home Videos when Bob Saget used to host it (for many years).
Goodnight, Michelle.
Cool game. It's like a renaissance of beat 'em up games. At a recent steam festival, I played the demo of another potentially good game - Arnold Bounty Hunter. It looks more like the first Battletoads - there are not only fights, but also various adventures with platforming, hydrocycles. It also looks interesting. I liked the demo.
I like the truck beepbop and rocksteady ride in from TMNT 3 (nes), the foot soliders in the cars from TMNT 2 (arcade/nes), and other level cues referencing previous games.
Left out the World Map is a reference to the World
MAP of the TMNT NES Game.
4:11 Mike's wakeup move is a nod to The Manhattan Project
If you get frozen on any levels, no matter which Turtle you're playing as, their mask is suddenly red. An 80s comic throwback to when they all wore red.
LOVED how they animated shredder!
we forgot to mention that the entire animated opening scene made for this game is a direct tribute to the original opening scene from the cartoons
Turtles getting sushi: Raw fish? Yuck!
April, Splinter and/or Casey getting sushi: Quite delicious!
6:50 Always a mention of Kevin Nash somewhere... 😊
- April's spinning jump-kick is a literal copy from Lucia's special in Final Fight 3 (also a Capcom game).
- references to TMNT IV... you missed mentioning the actual biggest reference to In Time: the Chrome Dome fight has almost the same mechanics as the first Shredder fight in TMNTIV, where you need to throw foot soldiers at the screen to damage him
Notice in the fight with Super Shredder, the sign in the background notice the 3:00 AM sign. Referencing Big Apple 3 AM
After watching this it makes me wonder why haven’t the turtles crossed over with the street fighter series?
Or why Street Fighter gas never been adapted into a beat ‘em up
@@rubaiyat300 That became Final Fight which at one time was called Street Fighter ‘87
But I hear you. Many Final Fight characters made their way into SF but not vice versa
Too busy crossing over with WB properties
3:27
Man I felt that voice crack. I hate it when it just gets stuck lol.
My favorite part of this game was when a foot soldier was just walking with his tray of food and I rushed him and threw him to the screen. I could almost hear him say “yo, wtf” lol
you forget theres also an entire stage based on prehistoric turtlesaurus, but it takes place in dimension x but it so obviously is paying tribute to turtles in time, right down to the boss being slash from the snes version.
i still kinda wish cement man were a miniboss there. wouldve been cool.
Raphael says "Give me a break" when he's KOed. A reference to his introduction from the 80s cartoon.
The final battle takes place on the streets of New York. There is a clock that reads 3AM in the background. Another homage to Big Apple 3 AM. I guess that also means the whole game takes place over the course of about 12 hours.
The Bebop and Rocksteady fight on the rooftop stage: the two can charge into each other and stun themselves like in some previous games.
Michelangelos taunt and slide attack are also from the original 1987 TV series intro where he dances and spins away on the back of his shell
I did a whole video on the different easter eggs in this game that I saw. My favorite is Splinter's super where he's clawing is similar to his appearance in the intro where he breaks a bunch of boards.
@8:16
that same dance is used as mikeys taunt as well.
The last fight scene in the big apple is set at 3am. Nice
Don't know if i'm late to the party but at the beginning of "Jaw Breaking News" there's a crowd of people running out of the building while Shredder is laughing. One of them is a young blonde woman looking into the camera as she's running out. She was Berne Thompson's girlfriend for one episode and she disliked turtles.
Donatello has a reference to animated series intro too. When you finish a game with Donatello he will be shown with exactly the same machine from the animated series intro.
Lesser known? I thought everyone who grew up in the 80s knew the werewolf and were turtle.
Without watching this video.
When I first saw Mikey do his super move animation and instantly noticed where it was from. I got a smile on my face. This game is a tribute to the ninja turtles.
Yeah there's a lot Easter eggs you forgot to mention here...
1. Tommy the Green Ranger entry 90s
You can't miss it -> Ep8 the music that plays in the skies before battling Wingnut.
2. Metal 80s Heavy Rock Music from Ep10
A few screws loose, is heavily from metallic
80s anime like transformers, terminator and
80s slasher dome hits.
3. Enemy colored sprites, definitely used from Double Dragon IV of the enemy sprites
That come in colors and difficulty. Tmnt IV
Had that color idea but didn't have the idea for adding it like difficulty to enemy sprites
Like DD IV had done before.
4. DLC wait is that Dr Cunningham from tmnt 2003 series? Yeah that definitely brings back alot of great moments for sure
But I'm sure you can find the rest of the hidden Easter eggs from there on.
If you beat Metalhead as Donatello, he says “Don’t worry. I’ll repair you”
To be fair, the turtles' pizza in that episode had like ice cream and stuff on it
Actually, Mikey's headbutt goes all the way back to the TMNT 3: The Manhattan Project on the NES where I'm almost positive it was a move for either Mikey or Raph.
Also, as a shoutout to many Konami games, the elevator from hell sequence , where you fight Traag in this case
The music from the boss battles. Turtles in times.
This great game and the nostalgia is always nice
Thanks you for your video and channel
I would have thought Mojo would skip the 2ND Big Apple 3AM reference because it's a heavy spoiler, but than they literally showed the final stage that blatantly shows it but didn't mention it. The final battle takes place in Times Square at 0300 (or 3AM) as in BIG APPLE 3AM.
Gotta love the TMNT!
Re the Sushi: both April and Splinter say the opposite when they pick that item up! I can't recall if they get a bigger boost from it though.
Tokka and Rahzar are in the Secret of the Ooze
Mikey's taunt is a reference to the theme as well
They put Burne Thompson's girlfriend from the original series running out of the Channel 6 building in the first level! At that moment I knew these game developers were fans and I was in for a good time!
tokka and razar appear in nearly every 80's era tmnt game
There's an Easter egg to the original comics that you missed. In episode 10 ( A Few Screws Loose) there's a shop in the background with the name 'Second Time Around' which is the same name as the thrift store owned by April in the O.G comics
Don's 87 intro is actually noted in his story ending...
1 callback you forgot was if one of the Turtles gets defeated (I forget which one) he says "aww, shell shocked!" That is a callback to Turtles In Time on SNES.
How could u mention honda for mikey and not mention liu kangs bike kick that he does (mortal kombat)?
They also have move references to tmnt tournament fighters (like Raphs suplex) and a lot of the jump attacks from turtles in time.
True nostalgia, but also, what about the Mortal Kombat reference where Mikey does Liu Kang's bicycle kick
Tribute Games be living up to their name
Did a scan and saw no one mention it, but the iconic time from TMNT:TiT gets a direct reference in the final stage. Shocked you did not mention it when talking about the second stage name.
Check the time on the 'Times' Square.
Seems our adventure took a little over 12 hours, cause you fight Super shredder at Big Apple 3am.
Best game ever!
This isn't best game cause turtles who appeared in injustice 2 were the best design to date
Fantastic game. Beat it with my 11 year old son. Now I can't wait to play the Cowabunga Collection with him.
Cool 😎 I'm waiting for that game as well
Same here 🐢🐢🐢🐢
I love the game boy reference
