Wrestlefest-Best Christmas Present Ever

[ThankGodForSidJustice]

Got a bar top cabinet with it's design. Also has 4,999 other games including Superstars. Been playing both all day but mainly Wrestlest. Favorite game ever as being a huge late 80's-early 90's WWF mark I fell in love with it playing it as a young boy at the campground and at the mall. Along with the awesome colorful graphics one thing that I find really cool that I didn't notice playing years before is the attention to detail. All the wrestlers move sets are spot on and they are also accurately presented as far as their abilities goes. Mr. Perfect is super quick but his moves aren't very damaging. Earthquake is very slow but effective in close quarters. Jake is pretty average for the most part but has the best move in the game as the DDT is always a guaranteed pinfall after applied. Warrior is a human wrecking ball who can wipe an opponent out quick with flying clotheslines, press slams, and big splashes. Dibiase is a great technique wrestler who has the best moveset in the game as unlike the others who start with weaker moves like a bodyslam and snapmare for their starting grapple moves, he starts with impact moves in a backbreaker and a suplex.

Anyone have any memories playing this or Superstars? What team would you like to use in the Saturday Night Main Event Tag Team mode? I tried a lot of different combinations but I found Warrior and Earthquake to be very effective. I've dubbed them The Ultimate Disasters.

I never played this, but I remember watching kids play it at Pizza Hut when I was a kid and thinking there was no way that home video game systems would ever be able to compete with arcade games.

My college friends and I would play the hell out of this game at a local bowling alley prior to, and sometimes in lieu of, attending Anthropology 101.

I wish I could play this game and beat it without wasting quarters
