Virtual Pro Wrestling 2. It has even more mechanics like grapple combos and cage fighting than No Mercu, but with the full access to all moves for all attacks for the create-a-character like Wrestlemania 2000.

I still prefer the original trailer that I saw which got me into the game using Reiko's theme. The song fits so much better than the crap song they used for Dixie, it even loops well for the additional footage: https://youtu.be/ooPolPe2ax4

Sounds like you want to combine both WrestleMania: The Arcade Game with WWF: In Your House. The latter had British Bulldog and Owen Hart, but Mr.Perfect was not playable as a commentator. My favorites are probably the later N64 ones.

I highly recommend the DefJam games for the Xbox.

>>8432083
They did make the Kinnikuman games on the GameCube.

>>8402053
I thought they would have a stack ready to mail out the recalls instead of hand replacing the stickers and desoldering/resoldering in a new ROM chip with the updated game files.

>>8402258
No, it was just random happenstance with my lights. I do not know photography and it is just what my dumbphone spits out. The game had a lot of use amongst my friends, so it is heavily worn.

They are pretty fun. I like WWE All Stars which was released in 2011. It doesn't have much depth, but it is still fun.

>>8131114
I like Rumble Roses for the visuals, but for mechanics FFNY is pretty good, I just wish that it didn't have life bars. Give the M.U.S.C.L.E. games on Gamecube a try.

Aki made the best.

Nice. I mostly play the games, so I don't foresee selling them off.

>>7946364
I think the dramatic gay porn of pro wrestling makes for great sports games too, so why not pinball?

>>7946368
I know the analytics say go for it on 4th, but damn, "4 and outs" implies multiple failed 4th down attempts. Why, it's almost like the real Lions.

>>7946390
Don't hear too many recommending the Dreamcast version. Why that one for home version over say the ones on Xbox and 360?

>>7796360
That VI-deblur looks amazing and makes some 2D elements look great to my tastes. The HW2 mod can output both HDMI and analog RGB/YPbPr which could help with streaming and video capture.

>>7796436
I like it because it combines the best elements of Wrestlemania 2000 and No Mercy plus has its own elements. VPW2 has the running grapples that No Mercy gained which was not in Wrestlemania 2000, which means there is more of a guessing game against a running opponent for counters. However, No Mercy restricted moves, no longer allowing strong/heavy but counterable attacks on light grapples which Wrestlemania 2000 allowed giving full freedom in creating and editing characters. Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 has the greater customizing and longer intros of WM2k, plus the technical enhancements in No Mercy, but also has things neither games has like chain grapples, cage fighting, strike sequences, etc.

Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 had the gameplay of No Mercy (minus the wrestling cage) with additional gameplay features and its menu/interface is just like the one from Wrestlemania 2000 with all the customizations 2000 offered.

>>6715298
I recommend getting the version with "-1" which is the later release that does not delete the save data.

>>6390461
I had to come here to see that everyone is wrong. The real answer is when I elbow drop Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 on everyone here. Oh yeah! Let it be known far and wide it is the best. DIG IT!

>>6208381
A very good engine with great animations with 4-player fun. The CAW has a great balance with enough customizable options and imagination. There hasn't been too many since.

>>6208563
They also did Kinnikuman games with the same engine.

>>6208573
I like WWE All Stars on the 360, and that feels pretty close to the Aki engine.

>>6168821
Virtual Pro Wrestling 2, has the full customization of binding any move to any grapple, running grapples, combination grapples, combination strikes, etc. as a perfect mix between 2000 and No Mercy.

>>5834870
I like the Aki made ones. Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 has a great character creator which allows any move to any slot like 2000, but has running strikes and grapples like No Mercy, plus it also has chain strike/grapples which neither have.

>>5464949
I like the ones on the Aki engine. I only have the regular edition, what does Premium add that X does not have?

While I prefer the Aki games, Yukes wasn't that bad. I liked Rumble Roses and Rumble Roses XX.

I like that you can choose some heavy more counter-able attacks on weak grapple in 2000 which was taken out of No Mercy, allowing for full customization of a character. However I dislike that one can only attack from a running state, whereas in No Mercy you can choose attack or grapple (or roll away) from a running state. No Mercy also has more options for different positions on a grounded opponent depending on direction/side. However, the game with all the strengths of both 2000 and No Mercy and has more striking and submission options is Virtual Pro Wrestling 2.
