The first tier on the Deadeye firmware (Gun Accuracy +30%) has this neat oversight where it applies recoil reduction on your equipped weapons without limit. Every time you swap guns or fire modes it stacks more recoil reduction to your equipped guns, continuing until there's seemingly no recoil whatsoever. If unequip your Deadeye firmware gear, it doesn't remove the recoil reduction, only slotting in a new weapon resets it, and only for the slot you equipped. This reduction also resets when you exit to main menu and load your save.
How-to:
1. Equip a piece of gear with the Deadeye firmware (blue eye icon on the item card)
2. Swap your weapons back and forth, or toggle their alternate fire modes repeatedly for a while, the longer you do it the stronger the effect
That's literally all you need to do, you'll trigger it by pure coincidence more than likely. Just keep in mind equipping a new gun will require you to swap your guns around for it to (re)gain the recoil reduction.

*NOTE: This is an unedited archive of a live no-commentary playthrough originally streamed on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/bippoernesti), which means there may be deaths, restarts or intermissions/interruptions.
A triple feature where I tackled all three versions of the game, starting with the US Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Ultra Games), continuing with the JP Gekikame Ninja Den (Konami) and finishing with EU Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles (Palcom Software). Each playthrough is separated into chapters youll see below or on the seek bar of the player. Fun fact, I originally was also going to play the prototype thats floating on the internet for a fourth, but I decided to save it for the next time Im craving to play the game.
Around 18 minutes in I start chucking shuriken at seemingly nothing, but I was trying to execute the Mike shuriken glitch, where the shuriken gets stuck in the air.
I opted to keep the screen size a uniform 240 lines instead of doing 224, 224, 240 since it meant I dont need to start resizing the window, and since I dont really consider the junk graphics on the top and bottom too distracting. If you do though, Im sorry.
Been having some controller issues as of late. I use a PS4 DualShock V2 on PC and the D-pads been getting kinda weird on me, randomly getting stuck on certain directions. It didnt contribute to anything major during this stream, but there were a fair handful of moments where it got me hit because my attack direction wasnt the one I was trying to input.
I can usually semi-consistently beat the game without getting any game overs intentional or otherwise, but today the Technodrome was a wreck-nodrome and it was clapping my shell cheeks left and right. I put in genuine effort during Gekikame, but I realized too late that I should switch turtles.
Stream Date - 2022-08-30
Stream Title - Ninja Turtles, Hero Turtles and Gekikame
Live Notification - Whoa. Déjà vu.
Stream Description - Playing the classic NES TMNT game again. Theres some precedent this time since the Cowabunga Collection is right around the corner. The catch is that Im playing the game 3 times in a row, each one being a regional variant, but pretty much its all the same game.
I may take a few detours from the optimal path if I dont get too smashed up by the enemies.

The looping version of the track that has generally been available only in its shortest non-looping form. This version plays in a handful of instances, such as during the briefing in Sadas Fortress, the attack on Draugwand Castle, in the Demon Palace, and during the ending.

Though Im truly grateful to the person who made it, the SPC set for Emerald Dragon has always been missing stuff, primarily this, the non-looping version of this, and another arrangement of this track. If you want to pick nits, it also lacks a huge amount of voice lines as well as the Omake Mode jingle. The set has seemingly remained untouched for over 20 years, so if someone wants to step up to the challenge, I would be eternally grateful for an updated set.")
