Not a true Konami game. The quartet of former quadrupeds returns to videogamedom, sportin' a sweet art style lifted from the hit new animated series. Like their most popular game, the coin-op, this is a straightforward beat-em-up. The Turtles thump and slice their way through hundreds of Foot ninjas, street thugs, robots, and mutant lizard-men before saving the world in a totally tubular fashion.
Alas, it's not easy being green. Swarming foes will keep you paralyzed as they pummel you into turtle soup. To prevent this, practical players will rely heavily upon the three-button combo that hits multiple foes, rarely using the Turtles' other moves. Worse, the game's bosses are completely merciless. Shredder and Co. And if you fail to defeat a boss, expect to replay the entire hour-long stage in order to try again. That said, the game's levels are good-looking and varied, and its cut-scenes should please fans of the cartoon.
A fun rental, especially if played with a friend. After playin' a bunch of modern brawlers like the Hunter: the Reckoning games that are more about recovering trinkets or protecting poor schlubs than kickin' ass, this pure-action TMNT hits the spot. The cartoon visuals look great, and, just like in the old games, pummeling Shred-head and his goons alongside a buddy rules.
Yet, with the game rooted in arcade sensibilities, TMNT ends up a short and repetitive journey. Noninteractive environments and scant gameplay differences among the four turtles diminish my desire to replay. Take these ninjas home for the weekend, but don't adopt. If you've been around long enough to remember the classic Turtles games, then you'll feel right at home here. Because it plays just like 'em. Now, does this make it a pleasant throwback to simpler times or a boring, repetitive relic of a dark age?
That's on you--I find it sharp, fast, and stylish, which is just what this kind of game needs to be. Just keep the volume low--these Turtles be talking too damn much. Yo, dudes and dudettes! Michelangelo here, typing away with all six fingers on my trusty word processor. The radical folks offered me a year's supply of pizza if I would review our latest adventure for the Game Boy. I'm not stoked about typing, but hey, I'll do anything for pizza!! Konami's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is an awesome game that lets you take each one of your four favorite turtles on an adventure to rescue our friend April who has been kidnapped by that gnarly Shredder dude.
The game has five really rad stages with three levels per stage.. And like I didn't even use a calculator to figure that out! At the end of each stage is one of Shredder's main goons, who's really tough to squash. Don't worry, they just look tough! At the beginning of each game, you get to choose between us four turtles pick me! In addition to your weapon, you also get an unlimited supply of ninja throwing stars!
You start with eight hit points, but lose a point each time you get zapped by one of Shredder's creepos or their weapons Bummer! Not to worry though, you can always recharge by eating pizza slices and whole pizzas pies that randomly pop up along the way! But, if you lose all your hit points, then that Turtle becomes a prisoner of Shredder and his Foot Clan.
Then you have to choose from the remaining Turtles and continue from where you were caught. Now you have to rescue not only April, but all your captured fellow Turtles! Double Bummer!

Even though most gamers had by this time come to expect and accept the Genesis sound chip to being utilized in mostly inferior ways and not on par with the great sound of the SNES in comparison, Hyperstone Heist really kicks up the quality in the sound department, not only bringing over fan favorites from both Turtles in Time and The Arcade Game, but also composing all new songs for several of the new sections.
The Shredder's Hideout stages in particular, feature quite incredible melodies that easily hang with the best of the SNES tracks. The voice clips however are the opposite and are extremely low quality. Hyperstone Heist is in ways a perfectly acceptable entry in the TMNT franchise of video games, and Sega loyalists were happy with the results though it didn't completely fill the void that they endured over several years. On the plus side, the animations, sound and controls are probably at their best yet, with the overall pace and difficulty of the game being much more enjoyable here than what it was on either SNES or the NES.
Another strike against the lack of creativity in the Turtles in Time stages are that the sections brought over from that game have not been changed much at all, and still do not stick out despite being set billions of years in the past originally. The major hurdles for Hyperstone Heist are its shorter length and weaker color schemes on the backgrounds which makes some of the stages look a bit flat.
It's a fine compliment to the games which it takes its origins from, but not quite on par being three games squished into one yet shorter than all three individually. US Cover. Japanese Cover.
