April O’Neil’s been kidnapped again – her news studio could probably do with hiring some bodyguards – so the turtles head off to rescue her. As in the previous NES game, you’ll do so only to find partway through the story that Splinter’s now been captured.
The NES version added a couple of extra stages that weren’t in the arcade game; along with some extra story to with them. Shredder enlisted the help of two bounty hunters to take out the turtles.
This makes for a total of 10 stages. The NES version expanded on the 10 stages too making for a much longer game in general. The only major thing missing from the arcade version is the ability to perform special moves.
