I just played it on my original Game Boy on the original cartridge. I'm going to be buying the new TMNT game on the Switch (Shredder's Revenge) and wanted to remind myself of what it was like playing this back in 1990. It's still nostalgia awesomeness and...my Game Boy still works!!!
I had this game growing up, obviously. I am the youngest of three kids so my older brothers when they wouldn't play with me I would play this game alone. At times I'd take a quick lunch break and pause the game just to hear "PIZZA TIME!" so that I could feel like I was eating with thee Ninja turtles. God I has such a innocent childhood.
Wow!!! I loved this game SO much better than the 1st one on NES. This was my 1st game boy game I played and finished. SO much fun, and a killer soundtrack! Ultra games always had great music
This was the first game I ever beat. I was about five or six and beat it in the backseat of my dad's car on our way to a lake. I distinctly remember Krang laughing after the end credits. That was about 16 years ago and haven't played it again since. I should pick up another copy.
A+B+Select at the Level Select screen. Also the famous Konami code (Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A) works in this game - it will restore your life.
The music just gets better and Better. It was like going to a rave . Techno, Trance, Synth Heaven. Level 2 music had NO BUSINESS being that good. It alone could wipe the floor with the MAJORITY of game musics from any platform.
This, Mario Land 2, Castlevania Adventure, and Tetris, were the games I had for Game Boy. I didn't play Pokemon until Game Boy Color with Pokemon Crystal on my tenth birthday.
This was such a great game, could finish it again and again and it never got boring ...You know you can hit Bebop & Baxter's beams to kill them, right? Looked like you were trying to jump over them all
This was my favorite game on the gameboy. I remember I used to beat this once per day during my summer vacation just to kill time. I eventually got the sequel but it was too hard. Never beat it.
I found a copy of this game in a coat pocket when I found in between classes in middle School. Took the coat to lost and found and I kept the game. No regerts!
So did I! And boy, this and the amazing spider man were the best games ever back then! I remember how it completely blew my mind that these games actually had the original theme songs from the cartoon shows :)
This game was my childhood. Got it for Christmas with my new Gameboy when I was 8. It may be the first video game I ever beat. It's gonna be so surreal to play it again on the.Cowabunga Collection after so many years.
Such an amazing game this was, especially for something that came out in 1990, which both sounded, and also looked very good for a mere Game Boy game. It was at the very least far better than the forgettable original T.M.N.T. N.E.S. game, which everyone seemingly had, but never really liked all that much, and was virtually impossible to finish for that matter also.
Fantastic game, i used to play it a lot when i was a kid. But bad highscore, i can remember i used to reach over 32k using every hidden game and glitch :) Thanks for sharing this great video!!
Yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaar that game was totally awesome. Cool sound 4 a gameboy game too and the soundeffects were interesting too. Brings back great memories.
I can't really defend this as a "good" game these days. You have to pick your battles. But as a kid, this was my reliable way to kill 30 minutes. I got to where I could reliable do the entire game without being hit once. I started setting challenges for myself, like only shurikens (except on bosses, who are immune to them). I still pop it in sometimes for another go. We all have our guilty pleasures, and this is one of mine.
When I heard the line "We are here to save April" I thought, "Was this translated from Japanese? That would not make any sense." And yet the credits came up and it was entirely made by Japanese. Not only that, but Michiru Yamane worked on this. I had no idea. I was thinking through the video that people should actually remix/rearrange these songs. When the game started, I did not notice it said Konami anywhere. It is a well-designed game for what little it did, but the turtles are almost exactly the same, so I was expecting this to be a game that was a quick cash grab. I guess it was just early Gameboy as well as being a really small team.
Wow, you've this game beaten! I have great respect for you! I played time ago "Back from the Sewers" - and it was pure hell (among other things they walk so fucking slowly...). ^^ I love the music, too (it rocks). :-) The turtles looked like they are hypnotized... ^^
Almost 30 years have passed and I still remember this beauty! Great memories!

I freakin LOVED this game. nostalgia is a beautiful thing.
Without a doubt one of the best Game Boy games of its time.
Not really.
Yes, it was. Great sound, great cutscenes, great music, nice minigames. The 2nd part was lame.
NOSTALGIC! I remember finishing this game.
The sounds of destroying the enemies were so satisfying.
Ohh Yes !!! ;-)
It sounds like they say " listen to us" wen they die
Wysrrrugghh
Fall of the Foot Clan is such a classic
You said it!

I remember this game had some great music
Y. Xiao that's Konami for you (or Ultra, which is a subsidiary of Konami)
Standard for konami in the 80's- 90's
It's actually composed by the Castlevania series composer since Bloodlines!
Brings back so many memories. Remember playing this so many times in the back seat growing up. Best ever!!!!!
I love how smiley the old turtles were. Like little lego men.
Wow!!! I loved this game SO much better than the 1st one on NES. This was my 1st game boy game I played and finished. SO much fun, and a killer soundtrack! Ultra games always had great music
Who else is here after the announcement of the Cowabunga Collection?? Can’t wait to try the TMNT GB games since i never played them as a kid 😁
This was the first game I ever beat. I was about five or six and beat it in the backseat of my dad's car on our way to a lake. I distinctly remember Krang laughing after the end credits. That was about 16 years ago and haven't played it again since. I should pick up another copy.
Nostalgic, I grew up with this game.
I stinkin’ loved this game!! The 90s were so awesome!! Beat it several times!!
Love the fact you played with each turtle at least once, with Leonardo as the finisher.
Great stuff :)
Every sprite, background, sound FX and music is totally etched into my brain! ;) I played this game to infinity when i was 11 ;)
OMG !!!! This brings back all my childhood memories... this game was a legend back in the days
Some things my brain will never forget.
I still remember this game like it’s yesterday.
Thankyou for the playthrough 👍

One of my all time favorite gameboy games! Thanks for the LP!
🥺 después de 25 años vuelvo a ver este juego 🤩 las tardes eran divertidas con el Game boy, los fin de semanas eran de aventura y de diversión 🙌🏼🕹️🎮🔫🛹
I remember a bonus game about finding a secret number with 3 digits.
After my Pokémon Red crashed and loss my file with my Blastoise lvl. 94, this game just served me just to "forget" the trauma.
When I got this I was so enthralled with the music, my jaw hit the floor.
Way to go, Konami!!!!!!!!
Oh man, this takes me back to the Nintendo power days...
I remember playing this game constantly when I was a kid
wow, I had totally forgotten about this game until I saw it on ebay; all those memories playing this on road trips are coming back to me
This, Mario Land 2, Castlevania Adventure, and Tetris, were the games I had for Game Boy. I didn't play Pokemon until Game Boy Color with Pokemon Crystal on my tenth birthday.
This was such a great game, could finish it again and again and it never got boring
...You know you can hit Bebop & Baxter's beams to kill them, right? Looked like you were trying to jump over them all
Yo this was hands down my favorite 1st gen gameboy game. Was all i played for a hot minute
This was my favorite game on the gameboy. I remember I used to beat this once per day during my summer vacation just to kill time. I eventually got the sequel but it was too hard. Never beat it.
props for the playthru but I am completely saddened to see them miss every single bonus mini game
One of my favorite games in childhood
I remember my mom buying me this at Funcoland
I found a copy of this game in a coat pocket when I found in between classes in middle School. Took the coat to lost and found and I kept the game. No regerts!
The enemy destruction sound.. So good. I used to love this game.
Remember playing this in the closet with the gameboy light. Go in the closet with total darkness, turn on the light to really make the game shine!
GAMEOVER is what you get after the ending. Like you lost the game. What a reward.
This was one of my favorite games on Gameboy! I remember beating this multiple times.
this game brings back memories. I think I was around 13 or 14 when this game came out.
this was better then the very first tmnt game on the nes
Yes, but for a sequel to the first tmnt on gameboy, it's bad
True, and not so hard.
this was the first gameboy tmnt
better ??? while imperfect, the NES game was very fun and varied.
This one is short, boring, easy and feels so repetitive.
No.
This game has not aged well.
Such a great game, this is one of my favourite third party Gameboy titles. Sound effects and music are awesome.
Thanks! So much Childhood Memories....
The sounds in this game were excellent. Really makes a difference.
Great little game, great music and not impossible like other Gameboy games. I love it.
So did I! And boy, this and the amazing spider man were the best games ever back then!
I remember how it completely blew my mind that these games actually had the original theme songs from the cartoon shows :)
I just played this game tonight on my Gameboy! Great game and great music.
This game was my childhood. Got it for Christmas with my new Gameboy when I was 8. It may be the first video game I ever beat. It's gonna be so surreal to play it again on the.Cowabunga Collection after so many years.
TMNT fall of the foot clan this game was my childhood
My favorite game boy game
Always loved this game. I miss the 90's and my childhood :(
omg bring back so much memories, thank you!
I played the shit out of this game as a little tacker. I was 7 years old in Brisbane Australia and that GameBoy was my life!
Another excellent Game. A Classic. Played it a lot back in the Day. ;-)
"We are here to save April."
April: 😐 "That's my breast."
Crazy ! I remember this like it was yesterday. I was about 5 when this game came out. I'm 29 now.
Omg i rem this game back then when i was a kid i played this game 5 hours strait up lol
Thus was the very first Gameboy game I played. It was my cousins on his chunkyboy. Good memories, lol. I got stuck early game, though lol

Brings back memories
90s Memories
My dad got this for me when we live on RAF Lakenheath base(UK)in the early 90s
From the 3 turtles games on the gameboy is back from the sewers the best. Awesome music too
my childhood!!
Leonardo looks like "I have no idea what I'm doing" and just slightly waggle the sword around and it kills enemies.
Did I miss the bonus game, where you have to remove throwing stars against CPU Shredder? Or was that in another Turtles game?
that was this game, but it was krang you were up against
I was today years old when I found out you can deflect Rocksteady's bullets...
i use to play this all the time .. Especially family road trips this was my go 2
Dwam, I grew up on this!!
23:53 - I promised I will always remember this music, now I return to hear it again!
I love the BGM on this as a kid. All the cross echoes!
Fantastic game, i used to play it a lot when i was a kid. But bad highscore, i can remember i used to reach over 32k using every hidden game and glitch :) Thanks for sharing this great video!!
one of the best game boy games
Childhood
The music of this game is awesome!!! also the sound effects are good!!
i have yet to find a game that has a more satisfying sound when you kill an enemy
I totally forgot having this game. Thanks for posting the play through, was fun to watch.
20:27 life lost leonardo was captured
I can't believe how short the game was! It seemed so long back then
Haven't played this game in 20 years. Sheesh time flies.
Yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaar that game was totally awesome. Cool sound 4 a gameboy game too and the soundeffects were interesting too. Brings back great memories.
when the highway with the truck´s level where pure adrenalin and action back than as a child :D

Man what I wouldn't give to be 11 yrs old again and playing this without a care in the world...
I know all walkthrough locations. I forgot how great the sound was with headphones.
Just found this with my gameboy and never skipped a beat just beat it !
You sir relived my childhood!
From the gameplay to the music, this game was COMPLETE! my fav on GB.
Damn the nostalgia. I had this and some other pokemon games but my parents throw it all away unfortunately
played this game all the time when i was like 6
25:02 i loved that music part, good old times :)
Played this on my Gameboy all day back in the 80s
When I heard the line "We are here to save April" I thought, "Was this translated from Japanese? That would not make any sense." And yet the credits came up and it was entirely made by Japanese. Not only that, but Michiru Yamane worked on this. I had no idea. I was thinking through the video that people should actually remix/rearrange these songs. When the game started, I did not notice it said Konami anywhere. It is a well-designed game for what little it did, but the turtles are almost exactly the same, so I was expecting this to be a game that was a quick cash grab. I guess it was just early Gameboy as well as being a really small team.
Yes i had this, yes it made me sad.
Wow, you've this game beaten! I have great respect for you! I played time ago "Back from the Sewers" - and it was pure hell (among other things they walk so fucking slowly...). ^^
I love the music, too (it rocks). :-)
The turtles looked like they are hypnotized... ^^
I only played this game on a GB emulator, but I loved it, so I think I'll buy a physical copy sometime.
1:31
Sewer in the sky?
The TMNT theme sounds awesome in GB 8-bit.
