I miss arcades man, I miss them so much. It was a type of social activity that was an integral part of the 90s for me. Thankfully, we still have TMNT stuff being made to this day; which is amazing. The last game, Shredder's Revenge, is super fun.

That's NOT the same model, would explain the wedding ring missing. This new model is hella cute, I thought the original model looked at BEST middle-aged when I was a teenager.

I'm glad the original TMNT music is back. After what happened with the Arcade 1Up and Konami Cowabunga Collection releases, I was afraid for a moment that the TMNT classic song would go the same route as Michael Jackson's tracks on Sonic 3. This gives hope that it's still possible in 2024 for the TMNT arcade game to be released exactly as it was in 1989 (minus the quarters and Konami logo on the cabinet, of course).

Doug, any thoughts on the quality of the screen?

The screen maybe looks bigger than the older quarter arcades?

This turtles screen is 6” where other previously released quarter arcades have used 5” displays. Both this one and the older arcade displays are still TFT and not IPS displays, but I find this new display being used in turtles to be a step forward compared to the older screens used.

Numskull was required to use the artwork shown per the IP license holders. Why the IP license holders forced that little change is unknown, but at the end of the day it’s their call to make and Numskull’s hands are tied and they can only use the artwork that is approved for use.

Their intent is to try and make these things true mini versions of the original cabinets, so their attitude is that the actual arcade cabinets didn't do HDMI, so theirs won't either. Plus, cost, too. They also put the speakers in the actual location of the arcade cabinet's speakers (so the speaker grills are actually functional instead of just fake), to the detriment of sound quality sometimes.
