So does this mean the original “red” turtles are different from the 80 turtles and 03 turtles?
In what way do you mean?
The original comics didn’t have color, so the cover-art of those old issues, which had it so that the Turtles had red bandannas, was mostly a moot point. As far as Eastman and Laird were concerned, the main thing that differentiate the turtles was their weapons and characterizations, and that was enough. :wgrin:
The whole “color-coding” thing, that we now associate with the series, as far as I know, was a thing that was made up mainly for the 80s toon, and has since, largely stuck for all mainstream appearances of the turtles.
But even now, the continuing B&W comics STILL don’t do that, and have it so that the Turtles have red bandannas on covers.
So, in a nutshell, the only “difference” that may be there, is that you could argue that the red is what Eastman and Laird originally intended, in its purest form. But only if you’re that much of stickler. 
I hope people don’t skip over the earlier post in this thread were people were showing off possible HD sprites and talking about the potential of getting the community together to Remix TMNT:TF…that’s something that should definately be discussed at some point, especially with how awesome thar sample sprite looked.
If you’re talking about remixing the snes version for XBOX360, then HELL YEAH!
You’re a *** for losing to me on XBL and then saying “lol” about it.
‘Aura Crusher!’
(physical form)
Oh? LOL
Not digging the CG-movie-like look.
I have a wii stick i got at gamestop. Its white and blue maybe I can take a pic of it. Its like the ps3 hori fighting stick. In fact it might be hori lol
that’s the OG comic book style which is my favorite. they’d never go with that style unfortunately. i don’t think it would be popular with the kiddies. i’d love to be proven wrong though.
Eh, it’s not my absolute favorite, but it works, in my opinion. The only thing that would have really pleased me, as far as this game is concerned, was if they went with the OG look from the original B&W comic, but since that wasn’t likely in the least…
Any way, I wonder if they’ll go ahead and get the VAs from the CG film, while they’re at it (minus Mako as Splinter, of course :sad:). Mikey Kelly, aka Alastor from Viewtiful Joe, probably delivered my fave rendition of Michelangelo thus far, and the other guys and girls weren’t bad either.
I would definitely prefer them over the 4Kids cast, all in all.
I have to say I like the look of the turtles in the 2003 cartoon the best, and I’m sad that that look’s not being used. Serious, yet still colourful. I like my turtles with colour. The CG look is too dark and drab IMO.
Ofcourse it depends on the characters, but I would like to use Raph as my main. It’d be cool if he was a counter character or could gasp disarm people…
MORE SHOTS!!! just 2 though…but it’s looking a lot better

and Ubisoft made it more official
New screens…AND a trailer
http://wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14305526/tmnt-fighters/videos/tmnt_trailer_020409.html
I’m watching it now…
Trailer was a mixed bag. Some awesome, some bleh. Still looking forward to trying the game out.
If anybody working on the game reads this:
- No tripping, please.
- No wavedashing, either. There can be depth without this “I have better twitch reflexes than you do” nonsense.
- Work items into the gameplay thoughtfully, if items are there.
- Michaelangelo better have Dragon Breath. :tup:
Wow. There was a lot of times in that trailer where instead of thinking bad ass mutant turtle ninjas, all I could think of was 2 Kermit the Frogs going it at with a cutlery set.
Still, looks like it could be a lot of fun.
I liked the trailer. Alot. Having throw weapons as specials is awesome and different.
BTW, if Slash is in this (as he should be, hit fits Mirage TMNT so well its not funny) I will main him.
Smash Up is the worst sub title ever, they’re really banking too hard on Smash
The trailer felt… underwhelming. =/
