For Turtles in Time, I didn’t play that one as much, though the whole time travel part reminded my of one of my favourite issues of the Mirage series. the games cut scenes can vary depending on how many players you have and rewards the player that got the final blow against Bebop and Rocksteady with a cinematic of April thanking your turtle for rescuing her with a kiss. The controls are responsive and really have that arcade feel. The first game has all the sound effects and gameplay that I loved in the arcade.

I especially remember the artwork on the side of the cabinet, not so much for the Turtles, but for the model they had posing as April O’Neil. I remember the feel of the joy sticks and the buttons on the machine.
I once pumped in $20 worth of quarters to finally beat the game. Boasting 4 player simultaneous gameplay and sound effects and voices straight from the cartoon, I would play that game any chance I got, blowing my allowance at an arcade after school. The Turtles arcade machine was unlike anything I had ever seen up to that point. There were even games based on popular characters and shows, such as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Some of the arcade machines were amazing with their sit-down cabinet and multi-player control decks. The lights, the sound and the variety of games was unlike anything on the Colecovision I had at home. Growing up in the 1980’s and early 1990’s, arcades were a big draw from me.
