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

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

IIRC, you are rewarded with another underwater level

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

Nhex, Friday, 23 March 2012 16:23 (twelve years ago) link

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

Nhex, Friday, 23 March 2012 16:51 (twelve years ago) link

I salute you. That thing destroyed me

Number None, Friday, 23 March 2012 16:53 (twelve years ago) link

This is like the zenith of bad remakes

Raymond Cummings, Friday, 23 March 2012 16:57 (twelve years ago) link

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

Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 23 March 2012 17:03 (twelve years ago) link

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)

40oz of tears (Jordan), Friday, 23 March 2012 17:05 (twelve years ago) link

lololol

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

calstars, Friday, 23 March 2012 18:08 (twelve years ago) link

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

Lamp, Friday, 23 March 2012 20:03 (twelve years ago) link

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

♆ (gr8080), Friday, 23 March 2012 21:00 (twelve years ago) link

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

Lamp, Friday, 23 March 2012 21:07 (twelve years ago) link

see?

♆ (gr8080), Friday, 23 March 2012 21:08 (twelve years ago) link

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

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 23 March 2012 21:14 (twelve years ago) link

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

40oz of tears (Jordan), Friday, 23 March 2012 21:17 (twelve years ago) link

lol i have a song called 'star tropics'

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

haha

40oz of tears (Jordan), Friday, 23 March 2012 21:54 (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

dude on the right is totally on roids

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
