Video Thursday: TMNT Edition
When I was a kid oh so many years ago there was one brand of toys that everyone had. Sure there were those kids that had a bunch of transformers, GI Joes or Masters of the Universe figures but everybody had Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Up until about 1996 ‘97 TMNT was the most successful toy franchise of all time until it was dethroned by those cute little Pokémon that so vigorously stole our hearts. So the TMNTs took a break from the toy and movie scene (whether that was because of the disastrous TMNT III movie no one really knows) the turtles even took a break from games. Until till now….
The TMNT IP and brand is back with a vengeance with a CG movie being released tomorrow and the multi-platform ninja beat um-up launching earlier this week and hitting the PS2 XB360 and for our intents and purposes the Nintendo Wii.
Today Wii Rally is showcasing some gameplay videos that give you a sample of each of the turtle’s unique powers you will be using throughout the game. There are four videos but they are short and since we have four videos there will be no bonus round today. Sorry kids next week I promise.

The game actually looks like a lot of fun if the gameplay throughout the game is the same as in those videos. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to play a good TMNT game (not since the SNES game “Turtles in Time”), and this looks like that wait could finally be over… maybe.
