Heroes on the Half Shell - Turtle Bouillabaisse.

Remembrances:

When I was nine, I was a huge turtle-head. Had the whole bedroom set plus the framed poster on the wall, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Other Strangeness was the worldbook that got me into dice-RPGs

That's so cool, to share things from your childhood with another child. I've often wondered whether I'll have the chance to do things like that with kids of my own, or of my brothers.

I was so fortunate that my childhood obsession and his peaked at the same age. So I could easily tap into the "THIS IS AWESOME" thoughtstream, much aided by the fact that the aforementioned beat-em-up arcade game was pretty badass in its own rights, and help my nephew enjoy a truly geekawesome family gathering.

Ah, that game. Played a lot of that game, if it's the one I'm thinking of. Anthro turtles, lots of ass kicking, and pizza. What's not to love? :D

Yup. It was one of the better arcade beat-em-ups, and it actually aged quite well. That's always a pleasant surprise.
