      @@gameragedad8953 same... why did we never think to take damage on purpose? I guess we took more damage climbing up the dam interior... a few of those jumps were SOOO frustrating!
      I like the clever use of purposefully taking damage throughout this game... Sometimes to avoid certain enemies, sometimes to make long/difficult jumps easier, sometimes to skip entire sections :D
      Also a lot of clever use of boundary breaches, especially in that last level! :)

      Yeah, it was the worst. Let alone the enemy unfairly pops up while going for a platform. This and Castlevania II were the worst offenders of that at the time. At least as far as (in)famous games of that generation goes. Honorable mention: BattleToads, though that had a lot more going on with why it was so difficult. Water-levels...the bane of video games, even now. Super Mario Bros was tough at times, but nowhere near that shit.

    I remember the underwater section because a friend of mine couldn't get past it at all ever and for some reason i had no problem getting it everytime so one day he came around to my house and i watched him play up to the water bit, he gave me the controller and i did it for him and then gave it back to him and watched him play the rest of the game and he was like eyes glued to the screen loving seeing the rest of the game for the first time and he finished the rest by himself that night. We always bring it up when we see each other these days. Memories!

    I didn't play it ever again. 4 year old me was crushed. Games used to be stupid hard guys.
    I did also have TMNT 2 the arcade game for NES, and that game was fantastic, and was probably the first beat'em up i ever played.

      Did it on the Atari ST. It took forever, especially as the 'rescue turtles' mechanic wasn't in place. Four lives and you're out. On the other hand, you had multiple slots for weapons and items and could switch between them. Ropes were still auto-use.
      Technodrome was nastier. No added Foot Clan, but the thing is flying back and forth off and on the screen very quickly.

    This game was so hard, and I remember playing it with my friends and we were all about 9 ish and loved screwing around with the game but always died and it was really frustrating. Now I am an old guy and games are all dumb.... Gaming rarely seems to get it right for me!

    I can't be the only one that's turns down the volume because I feel bad about not being to donate to this great cause paired with great entertainment
