Nintendo Power’s newest issue has a two-page preview on the upcoming TMNT Arcade Attack game, due out November 2009 for Gameboy DS from Ubisoft. Much like the turtles games of the past, Arcade Attack is staying close to the roots of the original arcade games. Unlike Smash-Up’s style, this version is sticking closer to the 2K3 designs. Much like the TMNT movie game from 2007 for Gameboy Advance, Arcade Attack is all about cooperation. Just by pressing the Y and B buttons together, you can grab your opponent or your ally. Doing so will let you chuck your enemy at the screen (ala Turtles in Time) or grab your fellow turtle’s arm and spin around (just like getting a power up pizza in turtles in time) and knock down any nearby foes. The control scheme is very straightforward: weapon attack with B, kick with A, block with Y, and jump with X. Just like the GBA movie game, you can grab items like crowbars, baseball bats and throwing objects. Images from the original black and white comics will be used as cutscenes. The new game will feature a combination of three different versions of the TMNT Universe: the original comic, 2K3, and even the lesser popular Fast Forward series. The game will also feature 4 different game modes including Story Mode, Survival Mode, Boss Battle Mode, and Time Attack Mode. So far the only downside to the game is that there is no 4 player mode.

Stay tuned for more updates on this amazing new game. Three Turtles game in one year… now that’s something to Cowabunga about!
