You waited too long. It was only a couple bucks, but you thought, "I have time. It'll always be there. I'll get to it eventually." But now you can't downloadTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (http://joystiq.search.aol.com/search?q=teenage+mutant+ninja+turtles&invocationType=wl-joystiq) on the Virtual Console and your world isdestroyed.
Honestly, it was a weird goal to have, but we didn't want to say anything. In each and every region, it seems the turtles have retreated from the Virtual Console. Nintendo World Report (http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/29216) reports Konami (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/konami) cited an "expired license," the same issue that claimed TMNT Turtles in Time Re-Shelled (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/06/23/tmnt-re-shelled-no-longer-available-in-us-after-june-30/).
There's no word on whether the turtles will return to the surface any time soon, so we've contacted Konami for more.
