Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Online Multiplayer Playthrough (Switch)
This is a capture of me playing through the arcade version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. This is being played with online multiplayer through the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection for the Switch. I'm using Mike (Michelangelo).
The Cowabunga Collection just released on Switch on August 30 but the online multiplayer function was initially bugged and essentially unplayable because the menu screen music would play during the games and the lag would drop the frame rate down into the single digits (at best). Luckily, Konami released a patch in the evening that same day that seemed to resolve these issues.
It took a few days due to bad lobbies and me being busy, but I finally managed to host my own lobby and record a playthrough of the entire original arcade game. A bunch of people joined and dropped out throughout the game, but the initial group seemed to have the least amount of lag. As you can see, the connection varies greatly depending on who joins your match.
I think this is the first time I have beaten the original Ninja Turtles arcade game. In the early ’90s there was video rental store in the shopping center across the street from my house that had a Ninja Turtles arcade machine, so I was lucky enough to grow up with the game. I also managed to rent the excellent NES port, but sadly, I didn’t buy the NES version until about a decade later when I was already an adult.
After all these years of only having the NES port, it is nice to finally have the original arcade game with online multiplayer no less. Not only does the arcade version feature four-player support, but it has additional moves and more detailed graphics and animations, in addition to more voice samples. The only thing it lacks is the additional levels from the NES game. I even used my arcade stick for that true arcade feel.
The Cowabunga Collection doesn’t let you take every game online, but it does let you play both arcade games online, so I’m glad Konami prioritized those titles at least.
This was played in the evening on September 1, 2022.
Recorded with the Elgato Game Capture HD60 and the Switch's HDMI cable at native 1080p resolution and 60 frames per second. I'm using a Real Arcade Pro V Hayabusa joystick.
