Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection is the second major high-profile TMNT game released this year. Avid Turtles fans will remember Dotemu’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, released on consoles and PC last June 16. The game was a hit success, selling 1 million copies in its first week, proving that there is still a sizable fanbase for the Turtles even today. Given the added nostalgia factor of this upcoming collection from Konami, it will be interesting to see if Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection will reach the same level of success, or perhaps even more.
