Item Description
By the early 1990s, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were a cultural phenomenon, and Konami was the studio that understood best how to translate that energy into a side-scrolling beat 'em up. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project arrived on the NES in North America in February 1992, after its Famicom debut in Japan in late 1991, and it delivered one of the most satisfying entries in the franchise's home console library, a game that pushed the hardware while keeping the cowabunga spirit burning from the first screen to the last.
The premise wastes no time getting into the action. The Turtles are on vacation in Key West when Shredder hijacks April O'Neil's news broadcast, takes her hostage and reveals that he has lifted Manhattan into the sky. Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael battle through eight levels of Foot Soldiers and bosses, from Florida's beaches across the floating city to the Technodrome, Shredder's lair and Krang's spaceship. It is exactly the kind of gloriously over-the-top scenario that defined the era, and the game runs with it.
Each Turtle gets his own special attack, triggered by pressing both buttons at once, along with a toss move, and the two-player simultaneous co-op, with friendly damage switched on or off, is where the game truly shines. Few things on the NES hit harder than teaming up with a friend to clear a screen full of enemies together.
What Konami squeezed out of the hardware here is genuinely impressive. The sprites are large and expressive, the animation is smooth by the system's standards, and the soundtrack by Yuichi Sakakura, Tomoya Tomita and Kozo Nakamura captures the energetic tone fans of the animated series will recognize. Boss encounters pull from the deep roster of Turtles villains, among them Slash, Leatherhead, Bebop and Rocksteady, Tokka and Rahzar and Krang, before a final showdown with Super Shredder. Electronic Gaming Monthly named it the Best NES Game of 1992, and it holds up remarkably well decades later.
