This is not a drill.
Believe it or not, I have many fond memories of arcades. There was a really good one I remember that had just about everything you could want. A friend of mind told me that it closed, then joked that it was inevitable because it had a net cafe. Anyway, among the many Beat ’em Up cabinets, Konami’s were king, and their Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game was rad as hell.
Well, get ready to party like it’s 1989. Because a brand new TMNT arcade cabinet is being made, based on the currently running series. I have no idea where you’ll be able to find the thing, since most arcades in the U.S. are dead. But it will exist… somewhere.
This is a new game made by Raw Thrills. And this new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cabinet is a thing of beauty. We never had it quite so good: 55 inch HD display, 4 player, great speakers. They also promise an impressive set of features, too; voicework by the cast of the show, environmental combat, special moves. We’ll know more once it gets its debut at IAAPA 2017.
