So ninjas were banned in England?

drbabbers:

Yes I am in the UK and the word 'Ninja' was always censored out of the title credits in the cartoon. I think it was apparently too violent.. so they went for Hero instead!

As a kid in the UK I always knew the Turtles as Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, until the movie was released with Ninja in the title.

There is no difference at all in the game content.

I recall it was the depiction of certain weapons?  Seems like the cartoon title sequence had some stuff clipped out, too.  England bans all kinds of random stuff because their people are too fragile to handle it.

That and the word ninja is synonymous with violence, according to the brits of the era. They even changed the song title too, which I think is stupid because they replaced the word ninja with fighting. Like thats any less violent.  ::)

All,

Thanks for the advice so far. I have 2 questions...

1. I need to move the machine into another room, however the 'control panel' platform/playing area is too wide and ideally needs to come off for me to get it through our interior door frames. Is this easy enough to do?

2. I have noticed a small circle on the screen display, right in the middle of the screen which is present at all times. It kind of looks like screen burn would do on an LCD screen... any ideas? It is nothing major, but I swear it wasn't there a few days ago when I last played the machine.

BTW this is the machine I have:



Thanks!
Dean

That CP is removable.  You need to get access to the inside of the cabinet and/or CP and you should be able to remove it.  CP's are generally held on with either bolts or clips.  Once you get in there, it should be obvious what needs to be removed.
