Or buy it in print: MagCloud

 

Few games based on movie, TV or toy licenses end up truly beloved, but the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles took over many kids’ lives, and with help from Konami, they had games that stuck out the most in those kids’ minds. SCROLL 07 covers all of Konami’s principal TMNT games in the ’90s, from the troubling original NES game to the Tournament Fighters series and everything in between. What are they about? How do they relate to one another? And why do they always begin with the Turtles sitting on the couch? At least two of those questions are answered in this issue, along with some non-gaming Ninja Turtle history.
