HUGE improvement over the previous NES outing. Actual differences between the turtles, all attack options are more viable and have a chance to be put to good use, and much improved boss fights with actual strategy to employ against them outside of Jump Kick spam. This about the best the NES can do for a beat em up. The main problems are like the last game some levels and bosses can drag for too long making it feel a little repetitive. It's also remarkably stingy with healing items for a console beat 'em up, with half the levels not having any at all. With the more generous system for extra lives though, this is hardly a problem. Check it out if you're a huge Turtles fan and lover of NES action games.
