Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters (Ｔ.Ｍ.Ｎ.Ｔ. トーナメントファイターズ), known as Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles: Tournament Fighters in Europe, is a 1993 fighting game developed and published by Konami. It is a fighting game based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles multimedia franchise, featuring characters from the comics, cartoons and toyline. It was one of three fighting games released by Konami under the same title, the other two versions being for the NES and Super NES.

Story

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and their allies must travel to various planets in Dimension X, fighting clones of themselves, to rescue Master Splinter from the supervillain Krang.

Gameplay

The game is a versus fighting game. jumps and pressing away from an opponent will block oncoming attacks. Unlike most fighters inspired by Street Fighter II, only three buttons are used; punch, kick, and taunt. Stronger punches or kicks are triggered by holding the directional pad towards the opponent while pressing the button. Combinations of buttons can be used to unleash special moves. Desperation moves are available and do massive damage but can only be used when the life bar is flashing.

Some levels contain destructible scenery which grants access to new areas of the level when destroyed (a feature later seen in Mortal Kombat 3 and its successors).

Modes

There are four game modes available

1 Player (Arcade single player mode)
2 Player (Two player vs. mode)
Tournament (Fight 88 battles)
Practice (Single player practice mode)
