Comment

A wrestling game featuring New Japan Pro Wrestling's three biggest stars: Keiji Muto, Masahiro Chono, and Shinya Hashimoto. Unfortunately, a big license does not make a good game. The characters look exactly alike (although the computer is a darker skin tone) and differ only by their basic attacks, though the grappling moves are the same. Also, a roster of only three selectable characters is disappointing. Toukon Sanjushi fails miserably at capturing the excitement of New Japan Pro Wrestling.
The subtitle of the game translates to "Fighting Spirit Three Musketeers," which refers to the three characters of the game, known as the Three Musketeers by NJPW fans.
