The four ninja turtles: Raphael, Michelangelo, Donatello and Leonardo fight their way through hordes of Foot Soldiers in order to rescue April. They battle familiar foes such as the mad scientist Baxter Stockman, General Traag from Dimension X and the evil alien brain Krang, up to the final showdown with Shredder himself.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Arcade Game is a port of the popular arcade game made by Konami during the height of the cartoon series' popularity. Depending on the version of the game, up to two, three or four players can take part in the action. The game plays like a simplified Double Dragon. While most of the standard Foot Soldier enemies are easily dispatched, some attack with knives or ray guns and are thus more dangerous. At the end of each level, players encounter a boss (or in certain cases two bosses working in tandem, such as Bebop and Rocksteady).
The NES version of the game features additional content not present in other versions of the game: two new levels (Snowy Central Park and The Dojo), new bosses (including Tora, Shogun and Baxter Stockman as a fly), additional music tracks as well as more variations of Foot Soldiers.... (more)(less)
""Unlike Simon’s Quest or the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – games where the criticism flinged at them is at least justifiable - some people try and attack the Nintendo rendition of the Turtles arcade game because it only supports two players. Attacking a game for lacking features not found in any other Nintendo title? Silly as that is it doesn’t change the fact that The Arcade Game is one hell of a beat ’em up.""

"My friend Ben and I wanted so bad to beat this game without the cheat code (heck we didn't even know it at the time). When we finally did beat the game we chalked it up to the good luck bestowed on us from my little Michelangelo marble I brought with me to his house this time. Good luck Mikey."

"I loved the Technodrome with Shredder and Krang being final enemies. That and the little screen about "mangaling the mousers" haha, always made me laugh as a kid. I can still remember the first time I beat this game with my friend. Nowadays we just use the cheat code.

Oh I'm sorry? Did I blow through the brick wall of your mind with ninja turtle awesomeness?!? Oh and we're on skateboards! Oh and you get a free pizza with this game!"

"April O'Neil
Oh April, getting captured by Shredder and for some odd reason you've befriended 4 walking and talking turtles who despite not being promised anything other than pizza as a reward they come and rescue you. That's love right there. Still waiting for her to be a playable character in a TMNT game."

"08 - A Game that you’ve finished countless times
I've beat this game so many times with so many different people I've lost count. With cheats without cheats, doesn't matter; although I do remember the first time I beat it was at my best friend's house. I can keep coming back to this game forever, the Ninja Turtles are just awesome and when you've got friends to play with you it just makes this game epic which is quite a feat with an NES game."

"06: A Character I'd be friends with
The Ninja Turtles - Why not? Childhood hero's who are funny and fun to hang out with. Heck even Splinter could be cool to chill with and April could always bring us pizza.
