C'mon, double nunchaku's? That's ridiculously hard to pull off. Anybody can swing a stick, or a sai, or a sword. Use two 'chucks at once and deflect incoming missle weapons with them.

Plus, he surfed. +1

You don't really swing sai though. I have a pair myself and have no idea how to use them. I'd think that if you were in combat against someone with a staff or a sword you would mostly be blocking with them. And because sai are only pointy on the end you wouldn't swing them anyways, you'd jab.

However, I do agree about the nunchuks. A friend got some when we were on a trip, and we were messing around with them in the hotel room. Luckily he got ones that were padded(it comes off) so that we prevented serious bruising and probably breaking of fingers.
 
I dug up this thread just so I could say this:

I finally finished TMNT 1 on NES yesterday. 17 years after it came out. And yes I am proud. I don't have any proof though... next week I'll have pics!

We're talking about this game by the way:

whoah, congrats. :cool:


i'm not sure if i complained about this recently, but when i played through it on the NESticle emulator, the game friggin' STOPPED right at the entrance to the technodrome... you know, when you're at the cave, and you're supposed to get teleported or whatever.

i'm never going to be able to finish it! :bawl:
 
I beat the water level ONCE when I was a kid. I tried it agian ten years later in college and couldn't get past it for the life of me. Even with emulator help. Absolutely insane.

And the crazy thing is...EVERYONE I know around my age knows EXACTLY what I'm talkin' about just by mentioning TMNT and dam/swimming level.

Oh. And I voted Don cuz hitting people with sticks is :cool:
 
Ok, so here's the deal: The other 3/4 of my band has decided they want TMNT tattoos. I'm not a fan of tattoos, but they keep begging me to go in on this, cause they want all of us to have a turtle tattooed onto our body. Opinions?

Because the other guys have already picked, apparently I've got Leonardo.
