Here's something you probably didn't know about Mike in this game... His nunchuck attack is weak at first, but when he's at half health or less, his attack power increases to that of Don's. That coupled with the speed of his attack, he becomes pretty dangerous. Give it a try. You'll be surprised.
Whenever I'd play this game with friends, I would swim up to the final bomb, and just sit there until the last possible second. One, for dramatic tension, but also because the hurry up music is heavy.
You forgot to mention a secret at the location featured at 1:49. You can leave the sewer after picking up the pizza, and go back down to find that the pizza is replenished! You can switch through all four turtles and reload your health!
Oh man this game was BRUTAL back in the day. That damn underwater part is truly the stuff of nightmares to a young child trying to evolve through videogames. I wonder how I'd fare at this game these days. Hmmm...
I didn't complain about the enemies at all when I played the game... except for those jetpack trooper enemies. Now those guys were a real pain in the ass.
You know, if the swimming level was something the Turtles had to do in the cartoon or in real life, they would be dead the instant their bodies hit the water. That's because the water is electrocuted.
@Distimok No he isn't. AVGN is an entertainer who usually only reviews small parts of games. He's somewhat informative but he often sacrifices good criticism for the sake of his act. Aqualung reviews games straightforwardly and sometimes makes full walkthroughs. The two are very different.
your review is great, keep it up! actually, i think that this game isn't any difficult, it's just unfair and frustrating. the only difference between the turtles is the length of their weapons, mikey and raph are completely useless, leo is okay, but donnie is the only useful one here, since his weapon does the most damage, but has the worst speed, however.
this game drove me insane i was a little kid that lost his soul .. this game took it... i played over and over... i was lost in turtle hell... i beat it ...finally.... and shed a tear.... all this energy and i felt a void.. this war against the game was over ... but there really is no winner is there....
I really have to ask why you decided to come out and say it's by Konami? It technically correct. Most people like to keep up the facade that Turbo wasn't a stunt pulled by Konami so that they could release more games....
Oh yeah, i also say part of the reason this game is mediocre is because they DON'T have the Konami tag on it..... no reputation to risk. I still like the music though.
@9imgood I don't know if I would say that- I seem to view AVGN has more of a comedy routine, and focuses only on the crap and what's wrong with it. Aqualung is more a reviewer (like a real one) where he explains the game and the pro's and cons, and gives you some info on game play. Well- i would say Aqualung is a better reviewer, but AVGN is more mass market due to entertainment value. But I will say as a gamer i get info from this guy, and flares to stay away from AVGN
Respond to this video... i played the hell out of this game but never beat it hard as fuck i still have it its a good game tho O that dame water stage!!!!

I use to fuckin LOVE playing this game ! God I miss the good old days...

Great job. I loved this game when I was little.
Thank you very much for guiding me through the underwater level, Aqualung. I made it thanks to you.
Damn, I didnt realize it was that old, regardless its a great song.
The key to beating that damn swimming level is knowing where all the bombs are, although that electric seaweed was a killer.
I just bought this game today for some reason,
oh well thanks for the walkthrough/review!
Great intro. The rest of the review is great too.
You forgot to mention a secret at the location featured at 1:49. You can leave the sewer after picking up the pizza, and go back down to find that the pizza is replenished! You can switch through all four turtles and reload your health!
It took me several tries just to get through that damn water level right.
It took me only once to beat it
Thats totally true, perfectly shown by the fact that the entrance to the lair is a dividing brick wall.
This game is the reason Donatello is, and allways will be, my favourite turtle.
I always thought the Poison Plants were actually Electric Weeds...
"Aqualung" by Jethro Tull
Ultra Games also had C64, DOS and Amiga versions of TMNT.
Oh man this game was BRUTAL back in the day. That damn underwater part is truly the stuff of nightmares to a young child trying to evolve through videogames. I wonder how I'd fare at this game these days. Hmmm...
Good review...you remind a bit of Harvey Keitel as the Wolf in Pulp Fiction when youre doing the walkthrough
This game was so hard when I was a kid. lol
I think I am addicted to this game.. despite being too hard, there is something about it that makes me play it again and again -__-'
the turtles theme kinda plays after you defeat Rocksteady, disarm the 8th bomb, and defeat slash/metal head....
I wonder if hes a NewYorker. Very good detailed review
wish the come out with a remake of all 3 games of this i admit it was hard back the day but i think it be fun if they did it right
A TMNT review! Awesome! Keep it up man!
I didn't complain about the enemies at all when I played the game... except for those jetpack trooper enemies. Now those guys were a real pain in the ass.
is it true that Donatello can defuse the underwater bombs faster cause he's the smart one? I never tried that theory out
what is the name of the song for the into?
"...and some scrolls, which really rip some shit up".
lmao wasn't expecting that.
What's that song you play at the beginning of every video?
Is that a song you made?
Or borrowed?
@Shintai123
Jethro Tull to be exact.
U should do a startropics walk through
i forgot about bebop and rocksteady, why they aint in the new movies?
awesome Review keep up the great work
Awesome video, great game.
I mean Videotapes. Sorry about the typo.

how april communicates with the turtles is with the turtle com.
@Distimok No he isn't. AVGN is an entertainer who usually only reviews small parts of games. He's somewhat informative but he often sacrifices good criticism for the sake of his act. Aqualung reviews games straightforwardly and sometimes makes full walkthroughs. The two are very different.
Your reviews are awesome.
Agreed, you had to sweat it out before time ran out.
correction: ultra made this
correct me if im wrong
great Review/Walkthrough!!
YOU FROM NEW YORK ? ps great review
Wats the intro song?
your review is great, keep it up!

Is that Star Trek thing real?
Awesome.. Forgot about this game...
Its actually a pretty old song.
lol you crack me up dude. Good job!
I really have to ask why you decided to come out and say it's by Konami? It technically correct. Most people like to keep up the facade that Turbo wasn't a stunt pulled by Konami so that they could release more games....
It isn't that it's bad. It's just that it's harder than it should be and there are lots of bad game design choices.
kool, thx, i could never beat that water level
Nice Video. Like it. Thumbs up for yah!
thanks m8t!
me too love this game
loved this game
I have the some of the toys and some of the videota[es at my home.
This game was fucking hard as a kid. I much rather preferred TMNT 2 cause of the arcade aspect.
that game is god awphul!
i don't understand why doing a revew was nessesary
Oh yeah, i also say part of the reason this game is mediocre is because they DON'T have the Konami tag on it..... no reputation to risk.
I still like the music though.
Beware the merky depths...
I never made it past the dam.
@terrifictracy
Game was fun.
best walkthrough ever. fucking funny
That water level was kinda a bitch. I really hated that level.
He should be paying AVGN royalties, not rent. Because he's just imitating him.
@ssjcmc82 ...not to mention all the other unfamiliar garbage.
Jethro tull
I always hated this game because it was so damn difficult! Very goof review though!
@CrazedPumpkinDude No. He's better than AVGN.
Aqualung > AVGN
Yes it was. I only beat it once
At first I thought you were going to praise this game,plus your review seemed dull but turned out decent in the end! Nice job! I hate game though.
Ok game
@9imgood I don't know if I would say that- I seem to view AVGN has more of a comedy routine, and focuses only on the crap and what's wrong with it.

the jump at 7.47 is a bitch!
