This is a capture of me and a friend playing through Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time on the SNES. This is not an emulator. This footage was recorded directly from my Super Nintendo using an actual Turtles in Time cartridge. We're playing on hard difficulty. I'm player one (Mike) and Drew is player two (Don).

I picked up a complete copy of Turtles in Time off Ebay earlier this year, so I've been wanting to record a playthrough of this game in two-player mode.

I really liked the original Ninja Turtles arcade game when I was a kid, and since I had an NES, I used to rent the NES version. It was a challenging game though, so I never beat it as a kid.

After I got my SNES I also rented Turtles in Time at least once, and since that game was much easier, I managed to beat it. I still remember getting confused by the first Shredder boss fight (the one where you have to throw foot soldiers at the screen).

Turtles in Time is basically a port of the second arcade game, but it lacks the awesome four-player mode. However, it does have new stages to make up for that, and it makes use of the SNES's mode 7 graphics. Overall, it's an excellent fighting game that anyone can enjoy.

If you play this game on normal difficulty you won't get an ending, so Drew and I played through it on hard mode. Hard mode isn't really that challenging though since the game gives you plenty of pizza, lives and continues. Nonetheless, we still died a bunch.

Recorded with the Hauppauge HD PVR and the official SNES S-video cable at 60 frames per second. I used a Toshiba model D-R550 DVD Recorder to upconvert the SNES's native 240p signal to 480i so that the Hauppauge could capture the console's audio/video signal.

I'm using a Super Advantage joystick and Drew is using an Asciipad turbo controller.
