King Atari Posted September 16, 2002 Share Posted September 16, 2002 Yep, I'm bored again. Here's the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the NES as it might (probably wouldn't) appear on the 2600. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted September 16, 2002 Share Posted September 16, 2002 I say make it in the same vein as Kung Fu Master and you've got a kick butt game. An EASY hack for those who are ambitious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmi Posted September 16, 2002 Share Posted September 16, 2002 whats the one eyed, one armed purple thing? Yeah the kung fu hack would be interesting too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Atari Posted September 16, 2002 Author Share Posted September 16, 2002 Heh, it was supposed to be a Foot Soldier. It would make a good hack, but wouldn't you need some programming knowledge to change the colors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garak Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 I say make it in the same vein as Kung Fu Master and you've got a kick butt game. An EASY hack for those who are ambitious Hehe! Anyone want to try? Garak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 I'd love to hear his musical rendition of the TMNT theme as played by a 2600. Too difficult to add a vocal version I know, but I can sing along to the music anyway - THEY'RE HEROES IN A HALFSHELL, AND THEY'RE GREEN! Umm wait.. is it sad that I still remember the words 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap5750 Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 Well if it's truly one-eyed and one-armed, then it's a Giant Purple People Eater! Cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassGuitari Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Is there an AtariAge necrobump contest going on that I don't know about? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
correagonzalez Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 would like to see this happen, as long as they dont make it based on the first one that came out nes, that one pretty much sucks dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperboy Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 13 year old bump. There was a 12 year one a couple days ago. I guess what is old becomes new again.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imstarryeyed Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Ha ha ha that was awesome. At the chagrin of those that hated the first game.. that one is totally one I would love to see an Atari based on. It's a great one player game. I hated it as a kid but loved it as I got older.

King Atari Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) I cringe when I see the stupid shit I posted 13 years ago. I really wouldn't mind if Albert went and deleted every single one of my posts from the era, just so I wouldn't have to see them dredged up out of the past at random like this. That said, a TMNT for the 2600 would be pretty sweet... Edited March 22, 2015 by King Atari 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Usotsuki Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I'd like to see TMNT (both the NES game and the arcade one) attempted on the 7800... *hides* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see TMNT (both the NES game and the arcade one) attempted on the 7800... *hides* Also likewise, on either the 2600 or 7800 (or both?). A hack of Kung-Fu Master is probably the best bet. Walk from one end of the stage to the other, smashing up Foot Soldiers and mousers along the way and fighting a Foot Clan boss at the end? Maybe use the game select switch to select your uniquely skilled turtle (essentially treat them as game variations)? Sign me up! I wish I had the skills to do this because I doubt the interest is there for most 2600 programmers and homebrewers. I think TMNT is a little after their time.

I don't think there is anything to feel embarassed about over this. If you got ripped off on eBay and went all psycho then I could understand it, but posting an intelligent suggestion for homebrew development (with graphics to back it up) is a good thing and if people like the idea 13 years down the track why not go with it?

Eh, maybe. Lets just say it's not a post I'd ever make nowadays. If there's one good thing about it though, the response is pretty positive, and truth be told, it has gotten my creative synapses fired up; not that I really have the skills or time to follow-up on them (nor am I suggesting that someone else should - I don't want to be that guy), but just for fun, I can easily envision two Atari TMNT projects: - For the 2600, the aforementioned Kung-Fu Master-like game. Maybe not even necessarily a hack of KFM, but a single-plane game akin to KFM, sort of like the original Game Boy TMNT titles. - For the 7800, a more traditional-style TMNT Beat-'Em-Up, perhaps even a full-on port of the arcade game. And with the amount of sprites that system could push without flicker, maybe even all four players with the addition of a specifically-created 7800 multitap? Hey, I can dream, can't I?
