First released for the Famicom Disk System in Japan, Nintendo brought this wrestling game to the western world in 1987 on cartridge. The game didn't change in the process. Well, I don't like old wrestling games very much, but I must say that Nintendo's Pro Wrestling is a better representative of its kind. It was the third wrestling game for Nintendo's 8-bit console so far (after the weak M.U.S.C.L.E. and Tag Team Pro Wrestling). You can choose between several, different enough fighters, the controls are ok as are the graphics for its time.

This game is a true classic! When people think of wrestling on the NES, this is usually what they think of. The wrestlers are colorful and interesting (watch out for the Amazon's head bite!). It's fun to play with a friend, too! Never forget: A winner is you.
