not as good as the original but that's a given.

A lot of people hated this movie. But while I don't love it it's actually a great movie on it's own with lots of cameos from the original cast and a unique flavor all its own. Watch it with an open mind.

I've loved TMNT since I was kid and these movies really do justice to the old TV show while not actually copying it.

I loved the Turtles when I was a kid and was leery of this movie when it first came out but was most pleasantly surprised with a wonderful new movie.

awesome new storyline

Without too much spoiling this takes place in an alternate timeline form previous movies and TV series. It is an excellent reimagining and the sequels are just as good.

great for mega man fans and everybody else

Mighty No. 9 features a difficulty level akin to the original NES Mega Man games, something very rare today. The graphics are awesome and this game actually comes with all the DLC.

Awesome movie

Verified Purchase:Yes
While there are a couple of things in this movie I would change (and not major plot points, just artistic differences) this movie was fantastic and leaves me eagerly awaiting Episodes VIII and IX as well as the side stories. The writing is easily as good as the classic trilogy.

Great Movie
on April 22, 2016
Posted by: Alastar
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've seen the first one as well and this movie is just a good. Different feel but that's largely due to the character development, so that's okay. It has a good mix of mild action and comedy. I definitely would recommend.

Tekken with Pokemon, but better.

There's a decent roster of characters and thankfully they all play very differently so there are brutes, agile fighters, more technical types. It is still just a fighting game but overall one of the better ones to come out recently.

The world is at war over the reserves of crystals, and only a band of intrepid explorers can rise to save the day. In Final Fantasy Explorers, you'll team up with three other players in solo or cooperative gameplay to dive into dungeons to collect crystals while taking on classic Final Fantasy enemies at the same time. Customize your characters with jobs, weapons, armors, accessories and abilities, and recruit and level up monsters, so they can fight alongside you in battle. Transform into popular franchise characters, such as Cloud, Squall and Lightning. With more than 200 quests on which to embark, the journey is just beginning ~ are you ready?

Not bad, but kind of a Monster Hunter clone.
on March 11, 2016
Posted by: Alastar
Verified Purchase:Yes
AS the title suggests this game is very much a clone of Monster Hunter except that the monster are all from the Final Fantasy IP. there is a nice ability to play as some of your favorite characters but the game still ends up feeling repetitive having to go through quest after quest and then grinding for supplies to make new weapons, armor, or accessories. One nice feature is the ability to customize your special attacks so that you can, for instance, cast a fire spell that also does Thunder damage and there are quite a lot of other abilities that can be added. Like I said, not a bad game by any means; I just think my expectations were too high.

Regrettably Best Buy (unless something has changed wildly) doesn't service any electronics except PCs. However, it sounds as though the wiring in the controller is pretty messed up after the drop. the wires would likely need to be re-soldered so buying a new controller would be easier, much more likely to be helpful, and possibly less expensive depending on what kinds of tools and materials you have on hand and how good you are with electronics.
