Here’s how it looks in action: ORIGINAL STORY 12/7/22: Following their well-recieved appearance in last month’s Shredder’s Revenge, the ever-enduring Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles still aren’t quite done with video games in 2022; as previously announced, Konami is giving the fearsome foursome their very own compilation of retro titles later this year, and a few new details have now emerged. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection, as the compilation is known, is being handed by Digital Eclipse and gathers together 13 Konami-developed titles - released for 8-bit and 16-bit home consoles, portables, and arcade in the 80s and 90s - alongside various new quality of life features and supplementary content. First, the full list of games included in the Cowabunga Collection:
