Which one? Ninja Turtles? The SNES wasn't so much a version as it was the 4th in the series of games, Turtles in Time, and the Genesis version of that lacked some things. This one coming to Live however is the first arcade game, and likely the arcade version, so better graphics and sound than the NES game.
Apparently they put Turtles in Time in one of the newer Ninja Turtles games, the arcade version, but they replaced all the music and a lot of fans were upset by this.
Really when reading this article:

I get the impression that if they do port it to XBox Live some time in the future, they should basically amalgam the SNES and Arcade versions to get the best of both worlds, and also add online play. Pretend the "Hyperstone Heist" never happened.
So, I'd say use the Arcade game as the base (and all that implies, like better graphics and harder enemies), and then just add the extra levels, bosses (including the alternate Shredder battles, the SNES had more than one and they were cooler), better character controls, full option menu, and the modified mode 7 version of one of the scrolling levels, and you get the ultimate game. Oh, toss in online play.
As for THIS game, I wonder if they'll add in the two exclusive NES version levels, as well as that fly guy boss?

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
