Fun:
This game was a great idea. It is basically a take on the popular smash bros, but it managed to miss nearly all the elements that made Smash bros good.
For one, the character movement, actions, response seems to be EXTREMELY slow, and often choppy at times.
The stage Variety 'kind-of' works, but the stages are not put together too well it seems.
The only thing this game managed to do what take a popular franchise and turn it into about 20 mins of fun. If youre looking for a game thats fun like this, Smash Bros is cheaper, and has more hours of gameplay.
I would suggest copying Power-Stone 2 OR Bleech... would make for an interesting game

Fun:
I bought this game on the release day, full of anticipation as a life long Turtles fan, especially of the 80's cartoon series.
Initially I was extremely disappointed, due to the poor character roster (which included no characters exclusive to the 80's cartoon), horrible story for single player mode, and UbiSoft's general refusal to acknowledge the disappointment among the fan base (they STILL haven't change the Smash Up website, which lists 7 question marks under the characters when only the 3 Rabbids are left).
However, several months later I've finally decided to write a review, having played the game a bit more and gotten over my initial frustrations. It's really not a bad fighting game, almost like Smash Bros' Lite. Sure, the 1-player story mode is horrendously lacking, and the character variety still isn't interesting. But the levels are mostly well designed, and online play is surprisingly smooth (a sad rarity for a Wii game).
If you have Smash Bros. Brawl already, there is no reason to buy this as that is superior in almost every way. But for the current price of $20, Ninja Turtles: Smash Up is a worthwhile purchase for anyone looking for a fighting game for their Wii.
So to sum up: Worth $20 if you don't own Smash Bros., not worth $50 under any circumstances (not nearly enough content).
EDIT: Just thought I'd add a quick additional note. The game is still fun, but sadly online play has been dead for several months. It's basically impossible to find anyone to play with unless you set it up in advance online. Still a decent game in its own right, but don't buy if you think you want to spend most of the time online fighting.

Fun:
Although the fighting mechanics are solid and the multiplayer modes are fun enough for some laid back action. The guts of TMNT is left under utilized. With such a rich history of characters, heroes and villains, TMNT only gives you the bare essentials. The roster is thin with little interest besides the titualr 4 turtles. You get Splinter, Shredder, April and Casey Jones. And a handful of unknowns who will seem alien to fans of the classic TV show. Left on the outs are Bebop, Rocksteady, Rat King, Baxter Stockman, Leatherhead, Krang etc. Such missed potential.
What is there is solid enough for a fun round of couch Turtle fighting. The graphics are polished and the Turtles specifically are nicely animated with great looking levels to play on. Overall it's a great concept for a game that loses it's mojo somewhere along the way. If all you need to have fun are Leo, Mike, Raph and Don then you'll get a fun package. For fans of the show, you might be wise to wait for the sequel.

Ehhh...
This was advertised as a SSBB clone, which it's not. It's clearly SSBB *inspired* but inferior in every-way. I'm a huge TMNT fan and this was an incredible disappointment. Read more
