Turtles in Time 3D Remake in Dev, Coming to XBLA

Cowabunga! By way of photos taken from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles road tour van roaming across America, it has come to light that a full-on 3D remake of 1991’s Konami-developed brawler Turtles In Time is in development.
As many would attest to, back in its prime, this was undoubtedly one of the most memorable co-op brawlers. Some would even go as far to label it is as the pinnacle of the genre. It had a irresistible charm that, to this day, any Turtles game released since has yet to surpass. Just seeing the off-screen shot above of Alleycat Blues manages to evoke those sweet feelings of nostalgia.
One would assume that Ubisoft, current holder of the TMNT license, is heading up development duties. Additionally, the controller featured in one of the photos makes an Xbox 360 release a given. The notion of whether it is coming to other digital platforms, such as PSN or WiiWare, is still up in the air at this point in time. Here’s hoping a formal announcement is not far off, especially with E3 right around the corner.

They have no idea how much expectations people have for this once they realize this announcement. I better be DAMN good. Because I freakin loved turtles in time.

I can't wait for this. Has to be one of, if not my favourite SNES game of all time.
I wasn't looking forward to the smash bros one at all, but this, this I will have to get.
May 2nd, 2009 at 6:26 am
This is all of a sudden, my most anticipated release of the year. The least anticipated, is the one in my pants, thanks to this announcement.
This better fucking rock, or I will lose my shit.

See what I mean? People want this shit to rock to a certain magnitude of awesome. That magnitude of awesome is going to be difficult to reach.
And for some reason, I just don't think it's going to be that great. I hope I'm wrong.

I'm quite pissed that this isnt making its way to PSN.
I dont get it isnt either, nowadays almost anything coming out on XBLA thats 3rd Party, comes out on PSN.

I dont get it isnt either, nowadays almost anything coming out on XBLA thats 3rd Party, comes out on PSN.
Considering all the information about that game has come from this cell phone video, I would have to assume there is a PSN version that we just haven't seen.
