KONAMI GAMERS' DAY, SAN FRANCISCO - January 16, 2003 - Konami of America, Inc. today revealed that all-new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games are coming to the Sony PlayStation® 2, Nintendo GameCubeTM, Game Boy® Advance and PC CD-ROM in October 2003. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brings to life the adventures of the "heroes in a half-shell" as shown in the animated series that debuts in February 2003 on FOX BOX (Saturday morning children's TV block). 4Kids Entertainment, Inc. and Mirage Licensing, Inc. are developing the show.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles stars the famed heroes Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael and their legendary foe the Shredder. In these 3D fighting/action videogames, players take on the role of their favorite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle as they punch, kick and duck their way through battles against the Shredder and his vile pack of Foot Ninjas. In both the Story Mode and the Vs. Mode, gamers will need to master ninja butt-kickin' abilities and hand-to-hand fighting skills to make their way through streets and sewers to the Shredder's Shinto Temple. The action-packed universe and vibrant characters will thrill fans of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and gamers that are new to the series.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were created in May 1984 when Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman published a 40-page, black-and-white comic book. The original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series debuted in 1987, going on to become the #1 children's television show throughout the late 1980's and early '90's. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles merchandise licensees, including Konami and Playmates Toys, were enormously successful, selling a reported $3 billion in toys, video games and other merchandise within all product categories worldwide to date.

I swear. This is the only announcement in the past few days that has kept me sane. That, and the Link in SC2. All else, like 4 of the capcom 5 going to other consoles, Iwata's "tugboat gba" strategy, and these freaking ninnies who are releasing Bloody Roar on XBOX!

I hate Nintendo right now. I hate them to death.

But I can't wait for Bloody Roar on Xbox. WHEEEEE!

Get your asses moving, Nintendo. Jesus.

The 5 capcom games were confirmed by capcom to be exclusive to gamecube AFTER there was talk of 4 of them not.

But thats too off topic. Yay for TMNT!

Okkkkkkkkkkkk

I think someone loves their gaming consoles a little bit to much

BTW be sure to wipe off any substances from your Xbox...... wouldn't want it to get sticky would we?

At least Konami is staying true to what the series is/has. It wouldn't be as great if they added another Turtle or had you fighting someone other than Shredder. But I'm gonna have to see some screens to see how it will look in 3D.

Dyne · 01-16-2003, 09:12 PM

Er.. when I say "love", I mean play some Halo or something. Not... that.

Joeiss · 01-16-2003, 09:18 PM

Michaelangelo (sp? wtf) rocks. I can't wait to try this game out.

GameMaster · 01-16-2003, 09:43 PM

I hope it isn't a dissappointment. Many fans including myself are holding high expectations.

BreakABone · 01-16-2003, 09:45 PM

A new Turtle game in Oct, a new Turtle show in like 3 weeks. What a year for the Turtles!

And I agree with Joe, Mikey does rule all.
