Cowabunga! Ubisoft gives the thumbs up. First details, screens and more.
March 6, 2007 - Ubisoft today gave credence to the recent rumor that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles would arrive on Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade by officially telling IGN it's all true. The classic, 1989 side-scrolling arcade game is coming, unfettered, to XBLA this month.
In development with Digital Eclipse (of Foundation 9 Entertainment), and originally published by Konami in the arcade, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will arrive on XBLA via Ubisoft featuring the original seven levels, all of which are playable in two- to four-player co-op modes on Xbox Live.
The old-school tortugas, Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo, are back!
Starring Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo in all their 2D sprite-based glory, this coin-op port will support voice-chat capabilities, offer 200 points worth of Achievements and, best of all, will only costs 400 Microsoft Points (US$5).
"The release of the TMNT classic arcade game on Xbox LIVE Arcade is Ubisoft's homage to a world-renowned franchise that for almost 20 years has captured the hearts of gamers," said James Regan, director of new business development at Ubisoft. "Ubisoft is breathing new life into the video game franchise with the launch of our downloadable console games while remaining true to the unique core values that make the Turtles so timeless."
Voted the number one most wanted Xbox Live Arcade game by IGN's readers in 2006 (see Xbox Live Arcade: Most Wanted), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is finally coming home. But if you just can't get enough turtles and the coin-op version is leaving you starving, Ubisoft also has a brand new Prince of Persia-ified version that's due to hit Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PSP, Windows PC, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, Nintendo GameCube and Wii to coincide with the upcoming CGI movie. Turtle power, baby!
$5!!! 2-4 player online co-op!!! I'm all over this game!!
Here's a Youtube video of the XBLA version, the sound is really low.
that game has been available for free download on your computer and run using MAME for like 8-10 years now along with every other arcade game that doesn't require 3d hardware. Home console games have been around even longer with emulators for the computer
The original TMNT game headed to XBLA this month!
