I have it, nerd.

No times were showing up on the leaderboard. how bizarre.

This is truth.

Having played through both games many times in my childhood and a few times in the last couple of months, it's clear that TMNT IV steps all over the face of TMNT II, dirtying it so much that the game becomes almost too painful to touch.

The co-op play and Live Arcade dressings will probably make it worth the $5, but even then, TMNT II just doesn't have much to offer these days besides nostalgia.

Where the hell do you come up with this fucked up numbering you're using? It's TMNT or TMNT the Arcade Game, not TMNT II. It's it's TMNT Turtles in Time, not TMNT IV.

The console versions.

The arcade game was named TMNT II for the NES and Turtles in Time was always considered the fourth installment of the series.

I hate video games and I still know this.

The arcade game was only TMNT II for US NES. It was TMHT II for Europe and was just TMNT in Japan (the first NES Ninja Turtles game was called Gekikame Ninja Den in Japan). TMNT III Manhattan Project was TMNT II Manhattan Project in Japan. Turtles in Time was only known as TMNT IV for the US SNES (and maybe Australia SNES) version. Same deal with TMHT in Europe and it doesn't have a number for the Japanese version. Neither arcade game had a number originally.

Since these are the Arcade games, they should not be referred to by their console numbers. Especially since the games are not entirely the same between console and arcade versions.

That's a nice way of saying "NES TMNT2 is a complete mockery of the arcade version"

But I still played the hell out of that NES port back in the day.

Because I'm not on your friends list

Let's keep it that way.
