While many fans will undoubtedly recall classics like TMNT IV: Turtles in Time for the Super Nintendo or the classic Konami-developed arcade game from 1989. However, many Turtles fans have felt slightly disappointed by some of the more modern reboots of this classic 80s franchise. In 2007, a lackluster TMNT reboot film hit theaters, with a few video game adaptations releasing alongside it. Due to the movies critical reception, many might have overlooked this Game Boy Advance adventure. You might be excited to hear that, as TMNT on the Game Boy Advance is an excellent beat em up that pays homage to classic games while embracing the Turtles style better than the movie did. At the beginning of the game, journalist April ONeil visits her old friends, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Having recently defeated their arch-nemesis Shredder, the four siblings and their rat-mentor Master Splinter have fallen on rough times. As April discusses her upcoming book about the ancient warlord Yaotl, the turtles recall their latest adventures. From there, youll experience the major scenes from the film, including big fights with the Foot Clan, battles with cryptid beasts, and some other supernatural oddities. The story is never overbearing in TMNT, and simply sets the stage for some awesome levels and environments. Its surprisingly cool to see the scenes from the movie play out in a simpler way, breaking things down into exciting, quickly-playable chapters. When you look back at the dozens of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games that have existed, the beat em up games have always been the most popular. The ability to pick from the four diverse but similar turtle brothers has always lent itself well to this classic genre, and TMNT on GBA does a good job realizing that concept. As a handheld game, TMNT is also best suited for fast play sessions, so the arcade-like gameplay is a perfect match. Apart from a few levels, youll be able to pick your favorite turtle and bash through hundreds of baddies across seven enemy-filled stages. You can grab some new moves at the dojo, purchasing healing at the medicine shop, or pick up a few pieces of gear at the sports store. These upgrades add a better feeling of progression throughout the game, while also adding a dash of strategy. Unfortunately, the game lacks any sort of multiplayer, so the only other turtles youll play with are AI-controlled. This is a bit disappointing, but the overall quality of the beat em up gameplay makes up for the exclusion. Although the movie its based on might not be the best Turtles flick of all time, the TMNT GBA game is surprisingly fun and reminiscent of the classic beat em ups from the late 80s and early 90s. Thanks to the retro visuals and gameplay, theres a lot of nostalgic fun to be had with TMNT, regardless of your gaming skill. This also makes it a great pick for kids who enjoy the modern cartoons but might not have the skill for the more recent video games. Either way, if you enjoy simple, satisfying action and quirky cartoon characters, youll love TMNT.
