Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is a side-scrolling beat-'em-up released by Konami as a coin-operated video game in 1989. It is based on the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series which began airing in the fall of 1987. The original coin-operated game was distributed to the arcades in two variants: a standard 2-player version that allowed either player to choose their character and a deluxe 4-player version with each player controlling a different character. Home versions of the game were released for various platforms.
This game was ported to the NES in 1990 under the title Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Arcade Game, distinguishing it from the previously released Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video game for the NES. The Family Computer version in Japan retained the original title since the first game was released under a different title in Japan. The NES version includes two new levels (the first part of Scene 3 and all of Scene 6), which feature new enemy characters, including two new bosses: Tora (a mutant snow wolf) and Shogun Warrior (a cyborg samurai), both characters created for the game. Most of the original stages from the arcade version were extended as well and the second half of Scene 3, the parking garage stage, replaces the arcade version's end battle with Bebop and Rocksteady with a battle against the mutated fly form of Baxter Stockman.
This is one of the first ever home video games to feature product placement advertising in the game itself--Pizza Hut logos to be exact. The Game's manual also came with Pizza Hut coupons. (Source: Wikipedia)
