Let's have us some fun.
Sep. 14th, 2005 10:19 amA mildly interesting factoid.
Since video games were repopularized by the NES years ago, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have missed out on only one generation of consoles:
8-Bit:
TMNT, TMNT2: The Arcade Game, TMNT3: The Manhattan Project, TMNT Tournament Fighters
16-Bit:
TMNT4: Turtles In Time, TMNT: The Hyperstone Heist, and two versions of TMNT Tournament Fighters.
32/64-Bit:
Nada. Unless I'm overlooking something.
This Generation:
TMNT, TMNT2: Battle Nexus, TMNT Mutant Melee, and soon TMNT3.
All in all, and that's not even counting handhelds, that's not too shabby. Especially for a licensed property, even though people dispute the quality of the games as of late(I still want GCN and GBA TMNT2).
It makes me wonder what other properties have stood up to the test of time like that. And by "other properties," I don't mean things like Superman, Spider-man, Bugs Bunny, and Mickey Mouse which have been around for the better part of a century, long before anyone even thought of video games. I mean more recent stuff.
Anybody?
