GRAPHICS SOUND CONTROL FRUSTRATION FUN FACTOR OVERALL

NES 2 Player Sports This is the premiere wrestling organization of 1986. The Video Wrestling Federation (VWF) is looking for some good wrestlers like you to take on the champion and then defend it with pride! Choose from several greats like Giant Panther, Fighter Hayabusa, and more. Face the champ, then go after the greatest fighter in the rival organization to unify the titles! Plot: Nothing special here. You choose from a set of wrestlers that were mentioned above. Then you fight against the other people you didn't pick. After that you face the VWF champion, defending the title 10 times without losing, get sick, throw up, then face your first real opponent, the rival champion for the final showdown named The Great Puma. Graphics: What graphics? I thought that this was given out at the optometrist office to show if a person was legally blind. Oh my mistake, I suppose. If you like skinny 400lb men (I love oxymorons) doing chops and kicks in 2 or 3 frames, this game is for you! Sound: Apparently when they installed the blind test, they also put in the deaf one too. Legend says if you listen to the wrestling music for 24 straight hours, you might become Hulk Hogan and start doing bad wrestling promos and wear yellow underwear screaming, "I am a real American, fight for the rights of every land". Gameplay: I'm not bashing this game anymore. Actually you have good control over your chracter and the moves are simple to use. Kick, punch, special move, and pin are the 4 functions (I think) your character can perform. Challenge: Like most people will say, the first matches are very simple. After you win the VWF strap, defending it the 10 times will be painstaking, because you must win them all straight or else you have to restart the series. By this time, you'll probably be blind and deaf. Isn't this the perfect game to play? But guess what? The Great Puma is nearly impossible to beat (luring him out of the ring and winning a countout is the only logical and quick way to do it), you'll be spending at least 2 hours playing. ......BOTTOM LINE: Seanbaby probably has the best Pro Wrestling parody page on the internet. You should go check it out sometime. This game is more known for being bashed than anything, but if you feel like pulling your hair out having to win so many matches, go for it. Winning both belts will make you "Ebbian" if that's even a word. -LordJD
