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

Lamp, Friday, 23 March 2012 21:14 (twelve years ago) link

cartoon was pretty big for me

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

Lamp, Friday, 23 March 2012 21:21 (twelve years ago) link

star tropics is my favorite game of all time most days

♆ (gr8080), Friday, 23 March 2012 22:29 (twelve years ago) link

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!!!

original bgm, Friday, 23 March 2012 23:01 (twelve years ago) link

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

original bgm, Friday, 23 March 2012 23:03 (twelve years ago) link

yes

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 23 March 2012 23:12 (twelve years ago) link

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.

Spleen of Hearts (kingfish), Friday, 23 March 2012 23:14 (twelve years ago) link

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

Nhex, Friday, 23 March 2012 23:25 (twelve years ago) link

I REMEMBER THAT SHIT

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 23 March 2012 23:28 (twelve years ago) link

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 23 March 2012 23:29 (twelve years ago) link

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

Lamp, Saturday, 24 March 2012 00:04 (twelve years ago) link

omg yes the whole point of bubble bobble is explosions basically

♆ (gr8080), Saturday, 24 March 2012 00:08 (twelve years ago) link

bubble bobble is about FRIENDSHIP

original bgm, Saturday, 24 March 2012 00:19 (twelve years ago) link

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

original bgm, Saturday, 24 March 2012 00:20 (twelve years ago) link

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

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Saturday, 24 March 2012 00:53 (twelve years ago) link

as part of mikey bay's homage to silent classics like 'the artist' the turtles won't have any dialogue

Lamp, Saturday, 24 March 2012 00:58 (twelve years ago) link

the pause music in battletoads is better than 99% of other music

humba (NZA), Saturday, 24 March 2012 02:01 (twelve years ago) link

i think i always lost in in the speeder stage on one when you were supposed to jump twice?

humba (NZA), Saturday, 24 March 2012 02:02 (twelve years ago) link

turtles in time was at aladdin's castle in the mall, many a quarter rolled into that machine...it was right next to samurai showdown

humba (NZA), Saturday, 24 March 2012 02:03 (twelve years ago) link

fuckin loved BattleToads

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Saturday, 24 March 2012 02:24 (twelve years ago) link

fuck yeah brb still playin battletoads

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 24 March 2012 02:30 (twelve years ago) link

I spent a lot of time playing the original ninja turtles arcade game at bowling alleys . First video game that I ever beat!

Large Sack (Empty) (latebloomer), Saturday, 24 March 2012 03:37 (twelve years ago) link

me too!

kind of felt like it was the day i became a man.

♆ (gr8080), Saturday, 24 March 2012 03:47 (twelve years ago) link

i'm still mad that the first time i ever played it I was getting my ass kicked by one of those robot-machine thingies and my friend (who was Michaelangelo) was nearby and his sister was screaming KURT SHOOT HIM! over and over but the dude kept jumping for whatever reason because he apparently couldn't master both buttons at the same time and finally after I died he figured out what he aws doing wrong and vaporized it.

I burnt his house down in retaliation. hope he's fucking happy.

My family started a Christmas tradition a few years ago where we sit around and eat Christmas snacks and watch my brother beat the NES Ninja Turtles game.

Marilyn Hagerty: the terroir of tiny town (Abbbottt), Saturday, 24 March 2012 16:51 (twelve years ago) link

the OG one? aws that even possible? that game was insanely difficult

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Saturday, 24 March 2012 16:52 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah that's why it became a tradition. That game lead to so many fights between me and my siblings growing up. If my brother got a game over, he'd throw the controller at me and have a tantrum. Day ruined.

Marilyn Hagerty: the terroir of tiny town (Abbbottt), Saturday, 24 March 2012 16:55 (twelve years ago) link

Like most video games, I really only liked the part where you're walking around on the overworld map (where you can still get your ass killed, wtf).

Marilyn Hagerty: the terroir of tiny town (Abbbottt), Saturday, 24 March 2012 16:55 (twelve years ago) link

idk Mario Bros 3 might have been amusing if Mario could be struck by a vehicle while attempting to select the next World to enter.

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Saturday, 24 March 2012 16:57 (twelve years ago) link

Hammer bros. kind of approached this, but it just led into a RPG-style battle

dies irate (loves laboured breathing), Saturday, 24 March 2012 16:59 (twelve years ago) link

do they even have wheels in the Mushroom Kingdom?

Number None, Saturday, 24 March 2012 16:59 (twelve years ago) link

hey hey hey let's not take a swing at the not-so-well to do, they may be third world, but WE made them that way!

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Saturday, 24 March 2012 17:01 (twelve years ago) link

They have that sweet little boat in world 3.

Marilyn Hagerty: the terroir of tiny town (Abbbottt), Saturday, 24 March 2012 19:28 (twelve years ago) link

All the islands off the mainlands had mushroom houses and matching games...

dies irate (loves laboured breathing), Saturday, 24 March 2012 19:36 (twelve years ago) link

Also some of the best parts of the game IMO.

Marilyn Hagerty: the terroir of tiny town (Abbbottt), Saturday, 24 March 2012 19:39 (twelve years ago) link

Would like an iOS battle toads reboot.

Jeff, Saturday, 24 March 2012 19:40 (twelve years ago) link

World 3 is def one of my favorite levels (alomg with World 5)

dies irate (loves laboured breathing), Saturday, 24 March 2012 19:57 (twelve years ago) link

i was just playing the original NES game and guess where i game over'd?

grimes - (the elder scrolls iv:) oblivion (diamonddave85), Saturday, 24 March 2012 20:30 (twelve years ago) link

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Saturday, 24 March 2012 20:30 (twelve years ago) link
