Idk why but I love this version of the 2003 intro Also what are you're thoughts on the song lyrics change for this version?
?
What are some tmnt characters you think should get more fan art?
For me I think Nanotech Parker-Richards deserves more fan art. I don't think he has any fan art and if he does it is probably an extremely little art. He is pretty interesting and sad. He was tortured as an experiment then when he broke free all he wanted was a family. Oh and he has the mind of a child. His farther was a pickpocketer that found him, the man was a coward, like he did get legit upset when he that Nano died and he even at one point tries to get Nano to run despite knowing he would go to jail. But that man's greed and cowardness prevents him from being a good father. Oh and Nanotech's mom is the scientists that tortured him for his first whole existence despite knowing he is sapient. She sucks.
To be honest i do like the idea of him going to a thief and gaint monster to a hero. I just wish he was still a kid. It was a bit jarring that he suddenly had a completely different mind and personality. I do mostly like the golden hero look though i feel like the car rim gauntlet thing that go up on the 13 image was gone, the same for the blue orbs on the 14 one. I like the huge arsenal of weapons he gets. If i remember right his eyes changed colors when using his full arsenal. I do love the gold. I wish his right hand was red. I like the idea of him having hands that are different colors.
Also if he was still a kid then it could be fun if even while being a hero he still has some thiefish tendencies. Like little Nano pickpocketing candy from Silver Sentry that Sentry was going to give to him anyways. I wonder if Nano would have a fear of things being tooken away from him.
Side note did anyone else forget how many forms Nanotech has.
Fav turtle?
The question is probably incredibly banal, but I want to gather some personal statistics on favorite turtles.
Raph for me so relatable
2003 bishop vs 2012 shredder , who wins ?
A fight to the death , who comes out in top?
Random Encounter, who's winning, 2003 Shredder or 2012 Shredder? (Please read bellow)
It has been probably debatated before (and i am sorry if it sounds like a farming post, but i swear it's not, karma is just a pointless number as far as i am concern) but in a few recent posts i have seen i saw some people claiming that the 2012 Shredder could beat the 2003 one, which i personally disagree with, so i wanted to know everyone's overall thoughts on it.
Of course, we are using Ch'rell for this case, and 2012 Oroku Saki.
Let's stay with standard equipment here, so no sword of tengu or Turtles Forever equipment for Ch'rell and no Super Shredder or undead form for 2012 Shredder, just them in their standard version.
How would 2012 and 2003 Karai change if they swapped Shredders as their adoptive father?
Just a random thought that appeared in my head.
So basically,Ch'rell adopts 2012 Karai,while 2012 Shredder adopts 2003 Karai.
How their fighting skills,relationship with Shredder and turtles will be like?
We Need a 2003 Era Collection
Greetings fellow ninjas of r/TMNT!!
Ever since the release of the Cowabunga Collection back in 2022 it only feels appropriate for Konami to capitalize on it and make a sequel compilation to honor the legacy of the 2003 Ninja Turtles.
While this version of the Turtles wasn’t around for long, it definitely left a strong impression on me since I was younger and really enjoyed the gritty and edgier-esque tone that was prevalent across the majority of the shows run up until Fast Forward. Shoutout to Turtles Forever for what it was trying to attempt. It was as good an ending any of us could have wished while being under 4Kids guidelines.
I hope that one day Konami actually considered how many fans would be open to supporting a modern type of collection that had all the bells and whistles.
It wouldn’t have to be over-the-top or anything… just base the menus and user interface off the style of either the 1984 comics or a noir theme that focuses on each turtle and their bandanas as well as weapons. The game list could include every version of each 2003 game that was released on both hike and handheld platforms. This way each title has a unique version to choose from.
As for extras, it’d be nice to have concept artwork, staff and any cast interviews as the pepperoni on top of the slice of absolute radical nostalgia this would be. Please someone get the word out to Konami… this needs to be a thing and happen!
What were people’s initial reactions to the 2003 TMNT series when it was released?
I want to find out what were people’s reactions towards the 2003 TMNT series when it was released in 2003. Did people down to the theme song, writing, and voice acting felt like it was a massive step up to the 1987 series cartoon or was it a shell from the original.
When do you think a hypothetical "Cowabunga Collection 2" could happen?
Konami still has rights to a bunch of TMNT games that have never been re-released in any fashion. Those being:
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003)" (Consoles/PC)
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003)" (Gameboy Advance)
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Battle Nexus" (Consoles/PC)
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Battle Nexus" (Gameboy Advance)
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Mutant Nightmare" (Consoles/PC)
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Mutant Nightmare" (Nintendo DS)
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Melee" (Consoles/PC) *The PS2 release was exclusive to Europe btw*
I think 7 games justify for a second collection. I'm unsure if the cartoon cutscenes will have licensing issues, but remastered collections have always been Konami's thing. I trust em with it.
If these two where to fight each other how screwed is the planet?
Let's say they're at their full power and completely intact mentally. Both are extremely powerful with magic and both are actually very skilled fighters when looking at their history. People seem to forget that Rise Shredder was a general and a ninja master. And of course 2003 Oroku Saki was skilled enough to fight a demon. So if these two where to fight would the earth get destroyed or are we relatively fine?
Let's say Season 1 TMNT from 2003 replaced the 2012 TMNT in their first encounter with Shredder, how do they do?
To be more specific, let's say that the 2003 Turtles from around the time of The Shredder Strikes two parts episode find theirself in the same confrontation with Shredder the 2012 Turtles had in the episode The Gauntlet, do they fare better? Do they stand a chance? Or will Shredder still prevail?
Favorite couple from TMNT?(from any version)
My favorite is Karai and Dr.Chaplin from TMNT 2003. Fun pairing and I like how formal they are with each other, with Chaplin calling her Mistress Karai and her always addressing him as a doctor
I also like April and Casey but I do not need them to be shipped in every universe.
My crack ship is 80s Casey and 80s Irma(Irma is the only person who can match Casey’s insanity)
Loved 2003 series as a kid, revisiting now but I have a question.
Used to watch the first like, I wanna say 4 episodes via a singular VHS tape I had. I'm watching through the show now as an adult, but I noticed that somewhere around season 6 the art style completely shifts. I don't like how it looks, but I'll watch it if there's still substance to be found. Without spoiling it, if I really enjoy this iteration for the darker tone and action/suspense forward pacing, should I bother buying those last couple seasons? Or are they still worth a watch despite the art change? I know this is an opinion piece, only I can truly decide that, but since I try to buy most of my media on physical, it could save me some money and time from hunting it down.
The only game in my collection so far have you guys played it? If so, what is your opinion on it?
What are your thoughts on 2003 Karai?
She definitely had some great moments, but she frustrates me a lot during season three, four, and turtles forever with how stupid she can be, with working for Shredder despite being somewhat opposed to him, the constant flip flops from good to evil or siding with him in the movie (for some reason after already moving on from the foot clan’s dark roots until she changes again).
Those are my thoughts. Please tell me yours
