Line 8:
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 Kids4Kids! 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 [[It's the Same, Now It Sucks|not adding enough new material]]. Despite these complaints, ''Re-Shelled'' immediately became a top-seller for the two consoles' download services. As website Joystiq remarked, this "once again" proves [[Critical Dissonance|"that regular people don't care about what critics have to say."]]
 
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).
Line 38:
* [[Locomotive Level]]: "Bury My Shell..."
* [[Market-Based Title]]: The "IV" was added to the title of the SNES port outside Japan to maintain continuity with the previous NES games, since the first NES game was followed by two numbered sequels (''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II'' being a port of the first arcade game). Strangely, the European ''Hero Turtles'' release also had a Roman numeral IV, despite the fact that the third NES game (''The Manhattan Project'') was never released there.
* [[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-Hit Kill]] on foot soldiers (the guy being thrown, as well as those hit by him).
* [[One-Winged Angel]]: Super Shredder, which replaces regular Shredder as the final boss in the SNES conversion. Interestingly, he transforms just before you fight him, instead of transforming after defeating him in his regular form. In addition to super speed, a fiery ground wave, and an anti-air ice projectile, Super Shredder also possesses an [[One-Hit Kill|instant kill]] anti-mutagen fireball which ''takes away one of your extra lives'' (That is, if you have only one hit point left and take one of this fireballs, you will lose a life ''but you will continue with a single hit point'').
* [[The Other Darrin]]: ''Re-Shelled'' uses the voice actors from the 2K3 series to give it continuity.
