The classic side-scrolling [[Beat
In the comfort of their sewer home, our four heroes, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael, along with their wise Master Splinter, are watching their news reporter friend April O'Neil report from Liberty Island for the Channel 6 News. Out of nowhere, a humongous exosuit piloted by Krang snatches the Statue of Liberty, and the television broadcast is interrupted by none other than the Shredder, who survived the Technodrome's explosion at the end of the previous game. After being taunted by Shredder, the four brothers instantly leave their home to battle the forces of the Foot Clan, only for ole' Shred-Head to send them through a time warp. Deposited in the prehistoric past, the Turtles must fight their way back to the future--most stages henceforth taking place in a later time period--in order to defeat the Shredder.

Later ''Turtles in Time'' was ported to the [[Sega Genesis]] as ''Hyperstone Heist''. This version lacked the fancier effects of the two other versions, but it had completely different plot, level design and reintroduced a few elements from the first arcade game.
In 2009, a remake developed and published by [[Ubisoft]] was released as a downloadable game for [[Xbox Live Arcade]] and [[Playstation Network]] under the modified subtitle ''Turtles in Time Re-Shelled''. It featured high-definition 3D graphics, improved audio quality which included re-recorded voice clips courtesy of the cast of the [[Four Kids Entertainment|4-Kids]] [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003 (Animation)|animated series]], leaderboards, and [[Bragging Rights Reward|achievements]]. However, it was attacked by <s> the [[Fan Dumb]]</s> quite a few for not including the material that was present in the [[SNES]] conversion (it was based solely on the original arcade version), and was criticized by critics for [[
Note that "Turtles in Time" IS NOT the subtitle of [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Film)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III]], despite that film also being released around the same time as this game and that movie also having a time-travel based plot (this is not helped by some newer DVD copies having this subtitle for the film).

* [[Absurdly Spacious Sewer]]: "Sewer Surfin'"
* [[American Kirby Is Hardcore]]: Compare the [[http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/tmntbeatemups/Turtles<!-- 20in20Time%20SNES%20Japanese%20Box%20Art.jpg Japanese box]] with the [[http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/tmntbeatemups/Turtles%20in%20Time%20SNES%20American%20Box%20Art.jpg US one]] (which is more like [[Comicbook/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesMirage the original comics]]). -->

** '''{{color|blue|Leonardo}}''' - [[Jack of All Stats]]
** '''{{color|purple|Donatello}}''' - [[Mighty Glacier]]
Line 38 ⟶ 37:
* [[The Jimmy Hart Version]]: Unfortunately, due to Ubi Soft being unable to secure the rights to Mutsuhiko Izumi's stellar music, the tunes in the ''Re-Shelled'' version are essentially sound-alikes that get the job done but are nowhere near as memorable.
* [[Locomotive Level]]: "Bury My Shell..."
* [[Market
* [[Metronomic Man Mashing]]: One [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZ3Syf4fEYI attack] in the game matches the trope. It's also [[Awesome Yet Practical]] if you can pull it off, because it is a [[One
* [[One
* [[The Other Darrin]]: ''Re-Shelled'' uses the voice actors from the 2K3 series to give it continuity.
** The port from ''Mutant Nightmare'' featured a different cast than the original arcade/SNES game as well.
Line 49 ⟶ 48:
* [[Rearrange the Song]]: In the ''Mutant Nightmare'' port, the "Skull and Crossbones" level remixes the "Streets" level theme from the 2003 ''TMNT'' video game.
* [[Ship Level]]: Skull and Crossbones.
* [[Step Three: Profit]]: What Krang and Shredder have to gain from stealing the Statue of Liberty is never made clear.
** Probably just to lure the turtles into a trap.
* [[Time Travel]]
