1989 Konami Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

1989 Konami Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4-player arcade cabinet.

The original TNMT was Konami’s highest grossing arcade game of all-time. Demand for the game was so strong that Konami couldn’t keep up so they outsourced some production to Dynamo Corp. By mid-1990, Konami had sold over 25,000 cabinets and counting in Europe and the United States.

Players use one of the four Turtles, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello or Raphael.
