Here’s the first official trailer for TMNT Smash Up, fresh out of E3. The gameplay looks pretty fun, but the design looks like a smash up of the 2007 TMNT film and the modern animated series. I don’t see much of an opportunity for additional characters, but I guess we’ll find out in the fall.
Not only did the Dick Tracy movie spawn all sorts of fun toys, it also had it’s fair share of video games. In 1990, Tracy invaded our homes and our pockets with NES, Sega Master System, and Gameboy games. Most of the time I associate video game nostalgia with the 8 bit era, but when I actually fire up NES games and then play a SNES or Sega game, I wonder why. I always forget how limiting NES games were, with their simple graphics and gameplay. I grew up a hardcore Sega fan.
I was talking to someone about Boogerman and ended up looking this ad up. I just had to share it.
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!

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?
