Versus Mode: Turtles in Time vs. Hyperstone Heist

I didn't even know that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist existed until Matt gave it to me as a birthday present last year. He didn't even know that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist existed until he saw it for sale at GameStop last year, and decided to give it to me as a birthday present. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time, on the other hand, we had been playing together for years. To me, this bets a couple of questions: How could a Ninja Turtles title for a major console have slipped by the radar of two video game fans who were just as obsessed with TMNT as the next 80's born boy? Could it be because we knew that Nintendo is what Segain't, or could it be that there is something terribly wrong with The Hyperstone Heist? The truth lies somewhere between these two choices.
