Yet this side-scrolling platformer – which also featured overhead view gameplay between the main levels – was not for the faint of heart. The very first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game arrived on the NES in 1989 and – due in part to it arriving at a time when Turtlemania had the world in the palm of its three-fingered hand – was an absolute commercial smash, selling 4 million units globally by the end of 1990. With at least one new game on the way for our mutated heroes (check out our New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game article out for more on upcoming title ‘Shredder’s Revenge), which ones are worth playing – and which are worth leaving to fester in the sewer? Let’s take a look at the Best TMNT Games ever! The concept of four martial arts-trained, weapon-wielding Turtles going up against legions of colourful bad guys has always made for excellent material to base video games on – and there have been countless titles released since the late 80s on a bewildering number of formats. When the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic was first launched by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird in 1984, no one could possibly have predicted that the series would become such an enduring, multi-generational, multimedia franchise (I mean, just check out our list of the Best Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys for more evidence of how popular the franchise is to this day!). With Konami having just announced the release of The Cowabunga Collection on consoles and PC – which collects 13 classic 8-bit and 16-bit TMNT games – there’s never been a better time to don your colourful mask, come out of your shell and check out the best Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games ever made!
