Gaming Haul: Week of January 28th

This week I didn't find too many interesting additions to my gaming collection. I feel like I have sort of bled my normal sources dry and need to wait a month or so for new stock to come in before I find some good stuff. That being said, I did find one game that I couldn't say no to: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the NES.

I remember playing this game a lot when I was a kid. A large part of my childhood was spent idolizing and obsessing over the Ninja Turtles, so it was a no-brainer that I had to play the video games too. This particular Turtles game was pretty bad and certainly no Turtles in Time, but I still enjoyed it as a child. The game was overly difficult, not particularly faithful to the source material (look at the cover, they're all Raphaels...) contained one of the worst water levels ever in gaming and was pretty glitchy, but it still has some awesome music and one of the most memorable NES games I've played. Take the game for what you will, I still wanted it for my collection due to how much I played it as a child. I picked it up for $1.99 so I certainly got a good deal on it.
