Both are playable but it's the SEGA 32X version that shines from the fourth console generation. The 16-bit consoles suffer the most with the SNES game reducing the fighters from 8 to 6 while the Mega Drive / Genesis port plays a little choppily.

There's enough content here that will satisfy more than just fans.Ĭoming out in 1995, the game received a multitude of ports, most of which played pretty well and do so to this day.

It makes a comparatively slow-moving faux sport frenetic and fun for your average gamer. Doink the scary-looking clown can breathe fire, bones will fly out of the Undertaker if he takes a good hit while heavy punches could launch your opponent to a height three times your size. The moves that each of the eight characters (or six for the SNES port) perform often verge on the fantastical. While there is a 3D plane represented in the digitized 2D imagery, Midway's arcade classic plays more like a one-on-one fighter in the same vein as their other coin-op cash cow Mortal Kombat. In what is perhaps one of the best WWF games before SmackDown at the turn of the millennium, WWF Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game is ironically unlike most wrestling games.
