Gameplay

It deserves its title as the best ninja turtle game - the combos and gameplay, and stages definitely stood out from the rest of the arcade style TMNT games.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Another incredibly useful feature of this collection is that you can activate all the "enhancements" (which are really just the original cheat codes/secrets) of each individual game from the selection menu, without having to go through the older process of plugging a 2nd controller or memorizing an intricate button code.
