Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Battle Nexus is a video game of
the top-down beat 'em up genre released in 2004 by Konami. The GBA
version is more of a Side-scrolling Platformer/Shoot'em up action game.
The game is a sequel to the previous year's TMNT game and is based on
the 2003 TV series.
The game offers cell-shaded graphics, four-player option and has the classic arcade game
of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as an unlockable. Leonardo, Donatello,
Raphael, and Michelangelo are playable from the beginning, while Karai,
Slashuur, Splinter, and Casey Jones can be unlocked.
Overview
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 Battle Nexus is a video game based mostly
on the second season of the 2003 animated TMNT series. It features
levels based on the episodes: Search
for Splinter (Parts 1 and 2), Turtles in Space (Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, and
5), Secret Origins (Parts 1, 2 and 3), The Ultimate Ninja, What a Croc!,
Return to Underground, City at War (Parts 1, 2, and 3) and Rogue in the
House (Parts 1 and 2). The game also has 4 tournaments consisting of
waves of enemy attacks. The fourth, Battle Nexus Tournament, is based on
the four part episode The Big Brawl.
Gameplay
Unlike the 2003 TMNT game, Battle Nexus supports up to four players.
Each player may select a "team" that consists of a turtle and an
unlockable character that can replace the turtle. Four teams are present
in the game, if less than four players are playing, one player may
select more teams and cycle through them in the game.
Each team has their own specific abilities that can help players
progress through the game. Blue Team can attack while dashing, and cut
through certain obstacles (gates, trees, bamboo, etc.). Red Team can
lift and push certain heavy objects. Orange team can reflect arrows with
their guard (and Michelangelo can fly with his nunchucks). Purple team
can utilize computer consoles (and Donatello can fire a laser instead of
throwing shuriken).
Unlike the previous game, players share one health bar so if one player
gets hurt, the health decreases for all off them. Characters have "weak"
and "strong" attacks and they do different moves with different
combinations. To beat the level, you must
either get to the designated point of the level, kill all enemies, kill
the boss, survive until the time runs out or do the specific goal until
the time runs out. Side goals are to collect artifacts that are usually
in hidden or hard-to-reach places and to collect crystal pieces that
increase your attack, defense, charge attack and shuriken throwing
("flying") abilities.
