@Hughesy it is being sadly overlooked because of how t looks in stills, but so far I only needed to convince my friends to try out the demo to sell it.

What a glorious day, I work on the website who interviewed Mat Dickie!

I'm currently playing career mode, one month per day (currently September 2022) and can easily state that this is the best career mode of any wrestling game I have ever played. In fact, it is currently better than anything thing wrestling in the real world. Just this weekend I was fired from Weekend Warriors despite being the Middle Weight champion so back to Wrestling School I went. after a few bogus contract offers I refused, I signed up yesterday for Super Lucha Libre. I look forward to see what happens next!

Where is my "Wrestling Empire" crew at? Shout it out in the comments! Woooooooooooooo!

My face, wathching that video.

You will never know how much of an influence these games have been on my life. Oh, and I'm not gonna tell you either, you will just have to trust me on that or figure out on your own.

@masterLEON if that would happen, this would become an even bigger classic than already is!

@Alaninho they are!

@jrb363 you won't regret it!

A note to all potential future MDickei wrestlers: If your AI buddies starts to botched something up, simply hit LZ+RZ to switch manual control to him and quickly "fix him up" before returnign to your proper wrestler. MDickei wasn't kidding around when he says he is giving us complete control, you even have to play the AI role!

Also worth noting: MDickie has made sure there is a Demo on the eShop for the game to make sure no one would buy this without trying it first and know what they are heading into. MDickie is a babyface.

@Munchlax not a single crash so far.

In MDickie terms, a 6/10 is the equivalent of a 11/10! The best wrestling game I have played this decade and the career mode puts every single offer out there (yes, including "Fire Pro Wrestling World") to shame. I can only hope to see MDickie continue to expand the game's modes as he has stated in his the development diaries and thank him for the absolute glory of having instant (as in no loading times) 30 wrestler rumbles.

Kusoge of the Century, everyone go buy this right now!

For year mys #1 resource for all things Japan related. Rest in Peace Brian and thank you.

The scary bit? I play them all. Finished most of them too!

@Lordplops Axelay has been on the 'to do' list from the start.

@twztid13 Well, if they release the new DLC pack in 2021 as expected... it might just be. xD

@twztid13 It was indeed written in 2020, a year best left forgotten.

@Savino

@Savino Pyable 2020 versions of Shiva and Max. They are working on it, but we have no time table for release... wait and see I guess. Scott Pilgrim is right around the corner.

@Savino I don't think you need help, SoR4 was my GOTY 2021.

@Savino but the gameplay flow in DDN is not as smooth as SR4. It's a bit unfair to compare both games since this one despite being produced by Wayforward uses 3D polygon models against SoR4 incredibly 2D animates sprites. It's very hard to make a 2.5D belt action brawler that can match the smoothness of 2D sprite art.

@Rez Should pop up next week.

@FargusPelagius this was actually rather easy to score unlike some of my previous reviews. We gave Cobra Kai a 7, we gave The Takeover an 8 and we gave Streets of Rage 4 a 9. These were all 2020 new releases and considering how good this one holds up eight years later there was really no other possible score.

@HamatoYoshi It was supposed to come on the same day but on release we got note that it was being pushed a couple of week in Europe, so expect it to drop soonish.

@Lordplops ... how did that pass!? Thanks.

Japan not only wins the cover, it wins the whole game. So much stuff got cut from Jaleco's Western versions of the game and Dead Dance is one of the worse. We got no dialogues between dules and we got no blood as fights went on on character's faces. A real shame, among Jaleco's kusoges this take on Hokuto no Ken was always a guilty pleasure.

Gentlemen, ladies.

Thank you.

@nkarafo No problem.

@nkarafo always a pleasure.

Show of hands: Who else made the jump from Port Town's starting grid jumplate to the other side of the track?

...looks for "F-Zero" on the Top 10

...what is wrong with all of you out there!?

@theWildLink Truly a mess, but there is little we can do, everything is out of our control nowadays.

...aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAaaaaAAAaaaaaAAAaaaaaAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grew up with the PAL cover but superior Japan remains superior.

... remember a time they made new F-Zero games? Good ol' days of a bygone anti-gravity racing era...

A bonna fide work of art!

... more of my moneys to Play Asia then. Y_Y

@RodSD64 Jeane.

@WhiteTrashGuy Indeed, its like they don't want our money.

Could never quite choose between No More Heroes 1&2 and Killer 7 as my all-time Suda51 favourites. Considering the fact I've done both games to death on Wii seems a little crazy that here I am, flooded in projects and new games, yet... I'm spending all my time petting Jeane again.

PS: Both games incredible soundtrack is often forgotten when people talk about them.

Bring back Body Harvest, you cowards!

Was sad to notice over the weekend Amazon UK's date change from November to 2021, bu I will surely pick it up, its an awesome reboot!

@Dog Both actually!

@X68000 We really need a Bitmap Brothers collection on Switch...

ICE CREAM! I SCREAM!

@quangtuyensa90 8/10, its great, buy it.

Oh so sorry gents, I was busy all day and somehow missed this one. As I stated on Twitter I have nothing but the utmost respect for Mr. Pachter. I do however feel the need to leave a strong worded reply:

Nearly 100% docked for me. Not only because I feed my YT channel with the latest/greatest Nintendo Switch releases, but because I am flying solo this generation, the Switch IS the de facto single current gen console in my home. Olus I have a giant middle-age crisis LCD screen so its kinda hard to justify taking the Switch anywhere away from the dock. Plus unlike the 3DS it does not fit in my pants pockets.
