TMNT2 was a port of the arcade game. It was more of a beat-em-up than the first game.

The TMNT arcade game is fun. I remember many quarters lost on my way to beat Shredder and Krang. The Simpsons video game came later and it's very similar in style to TMNT arcade and I played that a ton as well.
Cool to see both get modern console ports recently. Fun to relive that magic.
The first one was impossible. I picked it up again a few years ago to see if my adult reflexes could succeed where my child reflexes failed. I got owned.

It's very hard. When I was in middle school I put some time into beating the game. One time I got as far as the Technodrome but died quickly after that.
I stayed over at a friend's house one weekend, and we spend all day playing it. We eventually got to the technodrome, and the power went out. I'm not sure I have played it since.

Yeah, it's not a game I'd return to willingly. Some fun elements here and there.

Awesome! Speaking of TMNT, (since you guys mentioned it), I also recently played those games via emulator and cheating.

Well TMNT is so hard I don't know as I'd say cheating in that game is really "cheating." So very hard.

This makes me want to play TMNT2 on the NES. I played that game so much.
Only played the orig TMNT on NES.
