4.0 out of 5 stars
A solid street fighter clone, May 26, 2006
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TMNT Tournament Fighters [Nintendo Super NES] (Video Game)
There's been quite a few Street Fighter II clones, and most have been pretty shoddy. TMNT: Tournament Fighters holds up quite well, especially for Turtles fans. There are 10 selectable characters plus two playable bosses, for a total of 12. Besides the four turtles, characters are drawn from the cartoon, original comic books, and Archie series, making for a unique blend. The most interesting inclusion is Karai, who was established in the comics but only entered the mainstream with the 2003 animated series.
Graphics are well-realized and detailed, the fighters animate smoothly. Some more background animation and activity would've been appreciated, as well as unique finishing poses (instead of simply being a freeze of one of the character's moves). Music is forgettable but unobtrusive. The games' biggest letdown is that it only uses 4 buttons instead of the Street Fighter 6, but the fighting engine is still pretty good. There are even chargable super moves that can quickly turn the tide of battle.
TMNT fans will want to track this game down. Fans of the genre should also feel safe adding it to their collection.

= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TMNT Tournament Fighters [Nintendo Super NES] (Video Game)
I remember this game being a bit more easy as a kid of 12 or so when it came out,but jeez louise did my bro,his 2 buddies and I have trouble getting anywhere on the easy level,haha! They're all extremely avid gamers(mostly of the classic systems),but even they were stumbling just as much as my no-more-gamin' butt! I gave it 3 stars simply cause you can still have fun playing vs mode,but why would the story mode be so damn hard?!
