Interesting that they are making a Turtles game without there being a current commodity item to attach it to. Makes me wonder what kind of art style they'll use and such. Either way, more fighting games similar to Smash Bros will be good for all who appreciate that style. Get some diversity and new perspective on design that way.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
