Doesnt Casey Jones wear a goalie mask? Rick and Jason wore pretty much the same mask and even the PC Engine version changes the design to look slightly different.Quote:

All 3 of them wear hockey/goalie masks. However, Rick wears blue shirt and sweatpants, just like Casey Jones in the 1987 series:Quote:

Whereas in Friday the 13th Part II, Jason looks more like a mixture of the scarecrow from The Wizard Of Oz and Wilson from Home Improvement than Rick or Casey:

And when he finally looks like the real Jason in Friday The 13th Part III, he wears jeans instead of Rick and Casey's sweatpants:

Also, Although I consider the 2014 film slightly better than TMNT III, it still sucks balls in my opinion, so if Casey doesn't do the sequel, that's a good thing.

^ What I thought too. Why it took me forever to watch this episode. And now that I seen it, meh. But at least I learned what other Konami game engine NES TMNT was built on. Because NES TMNT looked like they added the TMNT licence halfway through development of another game. Always though that game might of been Castlevania, but guess not.
And maybe if that Saturn game gets a fan translation, I might give it a chance. Since I recall seeing it in GameFan and being impressed with the screenshots very much. That, and the game world or lore looks very rich. So if it can capture my imagination, it can't be that bad.
Although I'd rather play it than yank the hairs out of my scrotum, I don't get why they made the Ultra TMNT game instead of just porting the arcade game. Then again, I wonder why TMNT II The Arcade Game doesn't use the 4 score but Nightmare On Elm Street does.
Still find it weird that TMNT 1 has a reputation of being this insanely bad video game.
It's like, average at worst, and pretty much everything that sucks about it is the insanely high difficulty level.
It's AVGN again.Quote:

I actually don't think it's that hard, either -- except for the final run through the Technodrome, which degenerates into pattern-based nonsense where fighting "fair" doesn't work and you have to manipulate the enemy spawns instead.
Up to that point it's fairly straightforward, and I never found the swimming level hard at all. TMNT also has some of the strongest music on the NES, with great riff-based tunes that work really well for the game.
Getting back on topic, that Saturn game (Nanatsu Kaze no Shima Monogatari) looks like a trip. I'd love to see it translated.
I think it's on par with Simon's Quest in the sense that it's not that bad of a game but ever since the AVGN said otherwise, people have started to hate it. Also, the only hard parts about the game is the dam level, the final level, and some tricky jumps. My son actually got to the Technodrome when he was about 6 or 7.Quote:

It'd be the equivalent of saying I'd rather get a blowjob from a shark than play Super Mario World.
Is that supposed to be funny? He sounds like a child whose just learned swear words.
I know he doesn't. But remember how he loves Simon's Quest too yet because of that episode everyone thinks it's awful? Though due to James Rolfe credit, he may have inspired that improved version of Simon's Quest with the proper translation, quick day/night transitions and even the Nintendo Powers map inserted in game for greater immersion. So due to that, I'm very happy for that Nerd episode.Quote:

In regards to TMNT 1, I never actually beat that game. Don't even think I reached the second map with the Turtle van even back then. But have enough memories of playing this game in my early youth. And yes, I'm one of those sore losers that thought that dam was mega hard. So from my perspective, there's truth to that dam infamy. But here's the weird thing; some games I've found hard in the past, I shake my head at why was I having so much trouble with? Not sure if age made me better at games or it's skill I've acquired from playing many more games since. (And yes, I've tried that dam level in more recent years and it's not that hard at all as you say. Even Mike says so in a J&M Monday episode)
Yes it is supposed to be funny. AVGN is a fictional character. James Rolfe isn't like that. People just believe it's real. On J&M Mondays you see the real James Rolfe. And I much prefer J&M Mondays. Especially compared to new AVGN episodes (they got pretty bad soon after episode 100).Quote:
