TMNT: Turtles In Time ReShelled

This year is the 25th anniversary of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and currently there is a TMNT Road Tour Van crossing America.

According to the twitter of a fellow named Hyperfludd these Vans are showing off a complete remake of Turtles In Time. According to Hyperfludd the game is currently in Alpha, and plans to be released on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and WiiWare.

Hyperfludd has also posted two screenshots of the game - the title screen and one of the game in action.It's complete with the purple foot soldiers of yore, and it is certainly riding on the classic vibe of the original cartoon.

Considering the huge popularity of TMNT 1989 on Xbox Live Arcade it's not surprising to see more Ninja Turtle games showing up on the service, but a complete remake is more than expected, and it doesn't look too bad for an Alpha build.

Continue reading for the second screenshot of the game. While this has not been officially confirmed, the screenshots certainly look very convincing. Will the remake end up being good? I certainly hope so.

Re: TMNT: Turtles In Time Remake?

Seems to have originated from this blog.

At last week's Galabunga events in NYC, the debut of the Turtles' Party Van also revealed that a "new" TMNT video game - not the already revealed "Smash-up" game for the Wii - was in development. New, yet a game all TMNT fans are familiar with: "Turtles in Time." Only now it's been updated using modern 3D graphics. Mega TMNT fan Jason Koza was at the event (in his Casey Jones costume!) and provides the following info and pics of the game.

• The game is set up and directly taken from TMNT Turtles in Time.
• Right now it's only going to be for Xbox Live, but they're working on bringing it to Wii (Virtual Console?).
• It has the same music as the old game.
• Only the levels "Alleycat Blues" and "Skull and Crossbones" were playable.
• The only difference noticed was the bosses for the "Skull and Crossbones" is Tokka and Rahzar (unlike the original, which had Bebop and Rocksteady).
• For Alleycat Blues the boss is still Metalhead.
• The game is basically Turtles in Time with new graphics - Awesome!

This looks really cool. I don't specificly remember "turtles in time", but I'm sure it's bad ***.

It's definitely bad ***. I own it for SNES (yup, still own that sucker), and it had unforgettable levels and bosses. Not to mention co-op play was a blast as well.

So the first article mentions PSN but the second one doesn't. Do you guys believe it won't show up there? That would be a shame; it would be great to re-live the glory days as a five year old with this generation's power.

This is going to be phenomenal

I love XBLA already and this game could continue to add to that great reputation.

Man I loved this game when I was little.

I remember leaving my snes on for like two weeks once when I was trying to beat it. I'm surprised the thing didn't catch my room on fire.

This depicts the golden age of gaming.

It was that tough for you? I mean I'm sure you're exaggerating, but isn't this game like an hour or two long?

I was thinking that as well.


Game would kick ***. I would definitely pick it up for some co-op.
