TTA Video Games!

[BourgeoisBuffoon]

Remember these!

My big ones were BUSTER'S HIDDEN TREASURE and TINY TOON ADVENTURES for NES...

TTA 1 was the one that started it all. Great gameplay, choice of chars (Buster, Plucky, Dizzy, Furrball) and levels. But...I NEVER completed it! Anyone know what the ending was?

B'sHT was for the Genisis, and had everything above and more. The music...I still love it. The levels were huge and good...and beating up Monty is ALWAYS satisfying. Who else remembers the Forest and Pirate Worlds?

Any other memories? Come on, you know you have them!

My fav is Acme All Stars. 2 Player is the best

Yeah, I rented the NES one at least once, I got near the end but there was one part that had spikes that was practically impossible. Dizzy was my favorite character because he was invincible when he did his spin. It's been ages since I played it but I remember liking the Wackyland stage.

[BourgeoisBuffoon]

The spikes were what got me too! Geez....anyone who got through them HAD to have no life, since it would take hours to get through just one part in that trap...

...my fav char? Gotta be Furrball. He could be the only one who could get to safety in ANYplace...there were to many pits in the TTA 1 game.

My fav level was Wackyland as well....but I had no lives and health left when I got to that place, so any joy was short-lived.

I played both of the Tiny Toons games for the NES and liked then both, but in IMHO the first one was better. In the first one you could change to different characters, each with abilities (Furrball could scale walls, Dizzy could spin through practically anything, Plucky could hover and swim) that were useful in getting through the levels (though it was pretty easy to figure out which character was best for each level). I *think* I beat this one, unfortunately I don't remember the ending.

The second game put the 'toons in a theme park. While the game was fun (my favorite levels were Hampton on the train ride and Babs on the roller coaster) you were pretty much stuck with the same character, and the ending was a just a dinky little parade.


I also rented the SNES Tiny Toons game, but it didn't seem as good as the NES ones despite the better graphics. I dunno, it seemed... not very unified, if that makes any sense...

[Jimmy Kustes]

I remember owning both the Genesis and NES games because I liked Tiny Toons so much in the early 90's. I beat the Genny one by Konami and I think I still have it, but don't remember the ending!

The NES game was so hard and it was one of those games just made for a license. I remember a cave level, a building level with trash cans, a level with apples, wackyland, and (like every last level of early videogames) the cheap Montana Max mansion!

Did anyone play the Animanics platformer for Genny or SNES?

[Lonestarr]

I remember playing a TTA game for Game Boy. I managed to finish it (more than once), but, in hindsight, it was pretty easy.

I also played TTA games for NES and Genesis. I vaguely remember them, though.

There's a TTA site that has a ton of info on episodes, the cast and video games. I have the web address:

SAID BY DUNCANZITS: Did anyone play the Animanics platformer for Genny or SNES?

I played the Genesis one. The graphics were small, but good. Every char, thankfully, made an apperance! But it was rather frusterating with the small jumping ability and the long levels. It, like the TTA, was just a licence game, unfortuantly.

[Joe Tully]

Yeah, I am pretty sure that I won the A! game for Genesis. It wasn't very hard, it was mostly a puzzle-type game. Plus, you had unlimited continues IIRC.

[Thad Komorowski]

Over the years, I've managed to have gotten:

TINY TOON ADVENTURES: BUSTER'S TREASURE HUNT
TINY TOON ADVENTURES: ALL-STARS
TINY TOON ADVENTURES: BUSTER BUSTS LOOSE
TINY TOON ADVENTURES: WACKY SPORTS CHALLENGE

There's also a NEW TTA game called BUSTER SAVES THE DAY for Game Boy Color, or Advance, forget which one it was...

The first ones weren't your typical "liscened games to make mone". They actually did have some GOOD GAMEPLAY....


Thus enters the videogame fan/nerd (I webmastered a Sonic The Hedgehog website for 5 years ^__^)

All the Tiny Toon Adventure videogames were my favorites to play.


The games you guys speak of were made by a company called Treasure. They were a divison of Konami - who created the classic Castlevania, Goemon (Mystical Ninja series), and Contra. So they already have a good backing behind them.

Tiny Toon Adventures 1 is arguably the best and HARDEST in the series. It took me forever to beat it, but I finally did and it was satisfying in every aspect! The final battle was Montana Max (obviously) and he attacked you with a giant punch glove that came out of different areas of the wall. ALL the TTA characters wre littered in here from here or there.

The first game boy one was BABS'S BIG BREAK and the second one was MONTANA'S MOVIE MADNESS. I never played Movie Madness but if you have a game boy and you can find an old copy of Big break in a videogame store DONT HESITATE - IMHO its as good as the NES one.

The second TTA game for Nintendo: TROUBLE IN WACKYLAND was different as you ere allowed to play the characters seperately with Buster taking the final board - Bab's had the amusement park rollercoaster, Hamton had the Choo-Choo Train, Plucky had the Bumper Carts, Furball had the log flume, and Buster had the Castle with max. I dont remember what the ending was, but I DO know that the boards were LONG. It was easier than the first one though. But personally I like more challenges.

I dont think I need to repeat whats already been said about the SNES: BUSTER BUSTS LOOSE, and the Genesis, BUSTER'S HIDDEN TREASURE. Thier great as well, but even though the graphics blow the previous out of the water, they are a tad easier

I've seen BUSTER SAVES THE DAY but haven't bought it yet. I know Montana Max is in control of a gigantic robotic Dizzy Devil, but thats it. Thats for Game Boy color. After BUSTER BUSTS LOOSE - Treasure separated from Konami and formed thier own game division.

They recently got the rights to do another TTA game for Game Boy Advance called BUSTER'S BAD DREAM. Its said to have the gameplay of the classic TTA games from Nintendo and Super Nintendo. And Treasure has a BIG REPUTATION in the industry for doing good games of whatever they have ^___^A release date has not been announced yet, but someone may wanna put this in news. Here ya go - the link to Pocket IGN and the full article:

And check out the graphics.





Believe it or not, its scheduled for a Fall 2001 release. Expectations are high on this one.

I played the one for SNES and thought the characters were too hard to control. Then again, that would be just like the Warners, wouldn't it?

From what little I played and remembered, I liked the ability the sibs had to "stack" (that is, jump on each other's shoulders to reach high objects), you could change characters in the middle of the game if you liked, and if one of the sibs got captured by Ralph you could go back to the tower and rescue him (or her if it was Dot).

All in all, not too bad.

[Eric42]

ACTUALLY....

Treasure developed the Gameboy Color game, Dizzy's Candy Quest, not Buster Saves the Day.

Of the new TTA games coming out, the Europeon video game developer Warthog developed Buster Saves the Day and the Playstation game, Plucky's Big Adventure.

[Dub]

REALLY NOW @____@

So Treasure did Candy Quest? I had forgotten abut that game.


is it any good?What about Buster's game? I've heard warthog's track record isnt that great with the TTA liscense like the Treasure games were

[Eric42]

Well, having an inside look at the games (Warthog was the sponser of the 11th Anniversary TTA Fanart Contest that recently ended), I think they are alright looking so far.

Oh yeah, Warthog also develoeped/is developing the Gameboy Advance game, TTA Wacky Stackers. Forgot about that one.

I wonder if IGN has anymore info on them since I last looked.... hmm...

ANyway, the graphics of the Playstation game looked kinda blocky, but I was told the screen shots I saw were an early version and the screen shots I've seen since looks so much better. Still a bit blocky in my opinion, but if the gameplay is as I've been told, it'll more than make up for the graphics.

The GameBoy game, I dunno about. I've been wanting to pick up a copy, but since I'm suppose to get a free copy of all the TTA video games from Warthog, I've held off. But I'm still waiting, so I'm beginning to wonder.

[Joe Tully]

One great TTA game that I think everyone's forgotten was one in which you could make your own cartoons! You were given characters and could move them around and make them fall off of cliffs and all kinds of stuff. I remember having lots of fun making a Little Beeper/Calamity Coyote one. You could tape the cartoons with your VCR and play them back whenever you wanted too, but I never did that. I'll have to check for that game in my collection, but I think that I just rented it. I think it was called TTA Cartoon Factory.

You can get most of these games very cheap at used prices. If anyone has a FuncoLand near them, you might want to check it out. I got a couple of games for my Genesis over the summer for $6 each!

[Eric42]

Well, I've not forgotten it. Dunno if I've ever played it, or a different one, but I did play a Cartoon Workshop game, but it could have been a LT one.

I used to have TTA: Babs Big Break on GB, but it has burned on the front of my mom's car (I need to watch where I put stuff in). Also I still have TTA: Buster Bust Loose on SNES, and Animaniacs on SNES and GB. I can't wait to buy a GB Advance to buy TTA and A! games on it along with Castlevania and Sonic Advance.

[Eric42]

I just purchased Buster Busts Loose for the Super Nintendo really cheap for the heck of it the other day and well, damn is this game hard. Well, for me it is, at least. Never have been good at action platformers anyways.

It's like the first TTA game that I've personally owed. Isn't that bad? Heheh... sorry, I've always been a fan of RPGs and adventures games over the action titles and that's all Konami really made with TTA...
