Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 13-Game Anthology Debuts August 30
Shredder’s Revenge is great if you want a modern take on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles beat-’em-ups, but what if you’d rather stick with the classics? You don’t have to wait long to watch it again. Digital Eclipse, Konami and Nickelodeon have announced That TMNT: The Cowabunga Collection debuts August 30 on PCs (via Steam), PS4PS5, Switch, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. The bundle contains all 13 home and arcade games from the golden age of half-shell heroes, including the Japanese versions.
You can return to the days of pumping endless quarters with the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game and his Turtles in time follow up. If you’re more familiar with the console titles, you can play everything from the notoriously difficult TMNT for the NES through the three Game Boy releases and tournament fighters for the Genesis and SNES. The games remain in their original aspect ratios, but you can play with friends online and take advantage of creature comforts such as save games, rewind, and a gallery of concept art.
You still want to play Shredder’s Revenge if you prefer more recent game mechanics and up-to-date (if still retro-looking) graphics. Many of the frustrations you felt in the 90s will still be present in The Cowabunga Collection. Still, it’s easy to see the appeal – this is probably your best chance at playing all the early hits without using an emulator or taking your NES out of the closet.
