now the party can start

Vanilla Ice super OTM about this

I've had a few people on Facebook going absolutely bonkers over this (in a bad way), and it's crazy. The last TMNT movie got awful reviews and the franchise has always been commercial as hell so what's the problem?

what if they were frogs

lol @ how some news outlets are reporting on that sarcastic peter laird blog post as a legit endorsement of bay's alines thing

maybe they do need a universal sarcasm font after all

I just hope they make April O'Neil super hot, both movie versions were kinda meh.

alien race of april o'neils

why would you even announce something that's only happening in 2014 now, that's cruel

december 2013 now

ah, ok cool

; ]

I beat that game after a month of playing nothing but that underwater level

IIRC, you are rewarded with another underwater level

irl lolz

I didnt even fuck with the first NES game; I went straight to the second one, which was an adaptation of the (first) arcade game...

the first NES game is like stockholm syndrome for a whole generation of children

It's got great music, absolutely horrible controls. If you lose Donatello/Leonardo you may as well hit reset. The underwater level gave me strife as a kid but i think after 4 or 5 tries I figured it out and it's actually pretty easy to beat once you get through it. Wading through the relentless respawning armies in the following stage, however...

^i played through this game so many times

yeah, it's really the first sewer/city level that's the worst

this is coming from someone who was readily able to beat the speeder stage in Battletoads

I salute you. That thing destroyed me

This is like the zenith of bad remakes

Wow @ speeder stage in Battletoads. You are a god among men.

my memory of being a kid reading Nintendo Power is that every other issue was about Battletoads (and the rest were inexplicably about Star Tropics)

lololol

Maybe this 300 page TMNT graphic novel I have from 88 will finally be worth something.

i wonder if this is the reason for all the tmnt references on tv shows l8ly

no thats because tmnt is a permanent part of the pop culture zeitgeist

oh man i had the sickest vocal sample of krang shrieking SHREEEEEEDDDDDERRRR that i used to loop over synth-y noize tracks o i hope i still have it

see?

i have to say tho that the cartoon and the snes game is probably a much bigger part of my pop culture zeitgeist than the og movies as much as i enjoy 'turtles in time'

(and the rest were inexplicably about Star Tropics)

this game is dope as fuck

cartoon was pretty big for me

can't believe there's not a chillwave band called Star Tropics. or Tar Stropics.

lol i have a song called 'star tropics'

haha

star tropics is my favorite game of all time most days

star tropics is good stuff.

was able to get aaaall the way to the technodrome in tmnt and some sadistic shit w an autoscrolling screen where you had to diffuse bombs in battletoads. could never beat either, and man, did i ever waste a lot of time trying.

god, even thinking about these games is basically giving me an aneurysm!!!

also getting mad at youtube for not letting me watch 'shredder's many jabs at krang' in my region of the world

yes

How were you able to beat the speeder stage? That part is impossible. Game-breaking bug and they never expected anyone to beat the game.

the other levels were nearly impossible - i never did beat the final tower, even using the warps to get there. but the speeder stage could be memorized and doable if you did it a million times. i probably still have it committed to muscle memory, considering how many times i died over and over again. i vaguely remember pausing a lot, training to learn the placement of the blocks and such

now the snake and unicycle levels, forget it.. i think i maybe beat them once ever, if that

wtf

I REMEMBER THAT SHIT

dude on the right is totally on roids

fuck yeah i'ma play me some battletoads right now

yknow mikey bay should make a live action 'bubble bobble' movie that shitd be real

omg yes the whole point of bubble bobble is explosions basically

bubble bobble is about FRIENDSHIP

used nhex's method of pausing and memorizing nintendo power maps to beat the speeder stage of battletoads iirc

which turtle is Shia Lebouf playing. also what percentage of the Turtles' dialogue will be an offensively awkward attempt at street lingo as filtered through alien amphibians
