The "Quarter Arcade" series has previously released replicas of numerous classic arcade machines such as "Space Invaders" and "Pac-Man."

Check out this incredibly cool official product preview!
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade Game" (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) is a side-scrolling arcade game produced by Japanese Konami in 1989. Players can choose one of the four Ninja Turtles to control, defeat enemies in various stages, and clear the game after defeating the final boss. The sequel, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time Arcade Game" (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time), uses the same gameplay mechanics but adds an interesting time-traveling plot. The game was also adapted and included in the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1992, becoming a cherished part of a generation's childhood!

In addition to replicating the appearance of the original cabinets, both products also restore all their functions. The marquee text lights up when powered on, and dedicated coins can be inserted to play the game! The gameplay is identical to the original arcade machines, controlling characters on the 4:3 screen using the joystick and buttons on the cabinet. It's also possible to play using separately sold USB joysticks, and it even supports four-player mode simultaneously, recreating the excitement of yesteryear in a 1/4 scale!
Each Limited Signed Collector's Edition set includes a product certificate and a proportionally scaled-down gaming chair. The two chairs feature pizza and manhole cover logos, respectively. The biggest highlight of the Limited Signed Collector's Edition is undoubtedly the authentic signature of Kevin Eastman, one of the co-creators of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, on each arcade cabinet. From the meticulous detail restoration and Easter eggs to the "Turtle Dad's" signature, these two items are truly dream collectibles!
