I was talking to someone about Boogerman and ended up looking this ad up. I just had to share it.

New Turltes in Time 3D Remake Coming!
May 1st, 2009 by Tommy Day
It turns out that TMNT Smash-Up isn’t the only new TMNT game coming out this year. Ninja Pizza just broke the news that there is a 3D remake of the classic Turtles In Time game in the works. A couple playable levels are traveling around with the TMNT Party Wagon on their 25th Anniversary tour! It looks like they’re basically just recreating the game with modern graphics, and even keeping the awesome music!

ThinkGeek Selling New Sega Dreamcasts
April 24th, 2009 by Tommy Day
Talk about a blast from the past, ThinkGeek is selling in the box Sega Dreamcasts for $99! They’re out of stock already, but you can sign up to be notified when they become available again. What perfect timing, it’s coming up on 10 years since I bought my Sega Dreamcast, and since I only kept it for six months or so, I’d love to get my hands on one again.
If these become available again, I see some Power Stone 2, Shenmue, and Seaman in my future.
Did you have a Dreamcast? If so, what games did you play?

10 Characters I want in TMNT Smash-Up
March 26th, 2009 by Tommy Day
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles turn 25 years old this year, and Mirage is trying to take advantage of that by invading our lives with everything from classic toy reproductions to a Twitter account, TMNT movies on blu-ray, and even a brand spanking new video game.
The game is called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Smash-Up (official site here), and it’s being made by the team behind the Smash Brothers series, exclusively for the Wii. Love that logo! For a game thats supposedly not tied to any particular incarnation of the Turtles, it oozes nostalgia. The graphics, on the other hand, look like they were influenced heavily by the most recent CG movie.
The Roster
There aren’t many details around yet about any characters other than the Turltes and Splinter, but the Smash Bros games are known for their huge rosters, and in a couple interviews, crew from Ubisoft have stated that the yet-to-be-announced characters will hold some surprises.
Here are some of my hopes/predictions for the other characters in this game.
1. The Shredder
- Probability: Without a doubt
- Weapons: The blades all over his body
Pretty obvious choice. I’d say he’ll definitely be in the game, but what will he look like? A modernized version of the 80s cartoon, or will he be more in the style of the original comics?
2. Casey Jones
- Probability: You may rely on it
- Weapons: Golf club, cricket stick, baseball bat
It’d be hard to imagine a TMNT brawling game without Casey Jones, a natural-born-brawler. Expect some form of a cut-off shirt and his trademark hockey mask.
