Topic: TMNT: Shredder's Revenge!!!!

[Silver Shocker]

Everybody's favorite mutated reptiles are back in action in beat-em-up video game form.

A new TMNT 90's-style beat-em-up just got announced, by the developers of Streets of Rage. Isn't that a pleasant surprise?

Graphics look a bit different than the 90's games, but I definitely give them credit for making it so retro, and the cartoon animated intro sure is great.

I know what's going on my wish list!

Ha ha, that animated intro got me way more pumped than I should be.

This looks awesome though. Turtles in Time was one of my most played games in youth, so there's a definite bias.

 It looks great with that retro vibe! But I do admit I am kinda disappointed. The intro made it seem you might be able to use Splinter or April as well, which would have been really neat. (I would love to play with April as my character.)

Actually, I'm fully expecting Splinter and April to be playable in the final product, even if as unlockable. As I mentioned, this game is being made by the developers of Streets of Rage 4, and that game has a lot of unlockable characters and retro elements. 

Not only that, the Genesis version of TMNT Tournament Fighters had April (the SNES version had Karai) and she was modeled off Blaze from Streets of Rage, so it feels extra appropriate to have April here.

Nick and Paramount have given Splinter and April more of a role in the action pretty consistently in their era of TMNT (even renaming the group "The Mad Dogs" in Rise of the TMNT so they can have April as the 5th member of the group) so even though it's not particularly reflective of the original cartoon, it WOULD be surprisingly to go that route here.
