Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II - The Manhattan Project (Japan) Game

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Manhattan Project (Japan) is a classic NES beat-'em-up that throws you right into the shell-shocking action with Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael. This time, the Foot Clan has gone full supervillain—literally lifting Manhattan Island into the sky (because why not?)—and it’s up to the Turtles to kick, slash, and pizza-fuel their way through waves of enemies to save the day. With tighter controls and more fluid combat than its predecessor, this game feels like the TMNT arcade experience brought home, complete with those satisfyingly chaotic multiplayer brawls that’ll have you and your friends shouting "Cowabunga!" all night.

What makes The Manhattan Project stand out? It’s packed with personality—from the quirky enemy designs to the Turtles’ signature banter mid-fight. Each Turtle plays slightly differently, so whether you’re a fan of Donnie’s long-range bo staff or Raph’s savage sai strikes, there’s a fighting style to match your vibe. And let’s not forget the epic boss battles (looking at you, Super Shredder). If you grew up with the Turtles or just love old-school co-op chaos, this one’s a nostalgia trip worth taking. Shell yeah!
