Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles heads to XBLA this week

Microsoft has announced that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles from Konami and Ubisoft will be released on Xbox Live Arcade this week.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had already been confirmed for release on Xbox Live Arcade, but today comes news that the classic arcade game will be available beginning Wednesday, March 14 at 0900 MT.

Players choose to control one of four Ninja Turtles (Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael) and master their unique ninja weapons and abilities. Play alone or co-operatively with three other players, either on one system or over Xbox Live.

You'll also get the usual Xbox Live Arcade trimmings, including Xbox Live leaderboards, 12 Achievements and 200 Gamerscore points. All this will only cost you 400 Microsoft points and as always there'll be a demo you can give a spin before committing to a purchase.
