This was an interesting trip through the Sega Genesis library. I was expecting a few more wrestling games, but only five were released in North America. A few other arcade fighting games exist, but I wouldn’t count them as wrestling games. My original plan was to look at two additional games. I was going toContinue reading “Sega Genesis Wrestling Games Ranked From Worst to Best”

WWF RAW on the Genesis Looks and Plays Great
WWF RAW on the Sega Genesis is a great-looking game. It still has that annoying tug-of-war control scheme that devolves into button mashing. Thankfully, this is the last time I have to discuss the controls. There is a lot to do in this game. You have plenty of game modes to keep you busy, andContinue reading “WWF RAW on the Genesis Looks and Plays Great”
WWF Royal Rumble: Hamstrung by a Bad Control Scheme
WWF Royal Rumble on the Sega Genesis looks good. The gameplay is still repetitive, and I don’t like the control scheme. The control scheme doesn’t ruin the game, but it is annoying. The bright spot in this game is the graphics. It is a good-looking game, even if it has flaws. This game looks closeContinue reading “WWF Royal Rumble: Hamstrung by a Bad Control Scheme”
WWF Super WrestleMania Looks Worse on the Genesis
I’m going to play these games in order, unlike what I did with the SNES trilogy of games. WWF Super WrestleMania doesn’t look as good on the Genesis as it does on the SNES, and it uses the same button-mashing control scheme. I wouldn’t say that I like this game that much. I had aContinue reading “WWF Super WrestleMania Looks Worse on the Genesis”
The Sega Version of WrestleMania: The Arcade Game Looks Great
This is the second version of WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game I’ve played. It has several advantages over the SNES version, but I have the same problems with it as I did with that game. Playing arcade games now can be a little rough, especially when there wasn’t anything added to the console port. IfContinue reading “The Sega Version of WrestleMania: The Arcade Game Looks Great”
WWF Super WrestleMania on the SNES is Disappointing
WWF Super WrestleMania was the first wrestling game published by LJN on the SNES. It isn’t good, but it does show you the direction these games were going in. It has the same control scheme as the other LJN games but leaves the stupid gauge out of the grapples. There isn’t much here. The controlsContinue reading “WWF Super WrestleMania on the SNES is Disappointing”
The Problem with WWF Steel Cage Challenge on NES
WWF Steel Cage Challenge is a game that I tried to enjoy. My only memories of playing this game are on an emulator. If my friends and I rented it in the early 90s, I have no memory of it. This is one of those games that fits the LJN stereotype. The character sprites areContinue reading “The Problem with WWF Steel Cage Challenge on NES”
