Weekly Nostalgia : WrestleMania 2000 (N64)

[Koach]

Man! So Kono, Billy, and I had a huge nostalgia trip last weekend talking about the Nintendo 64 and the wrestling games that came out for it. I would argue that even now the THQ wrestling series (starting with WCW and ending with Wrestlemania 2000) are some of the BEST wrestling games ever made.

Though I am not a huge fan of the "Male Soap Opera" that is wrestling, the games were such a blast!

The moves lists were HUGE. Light Grapple and Strong Grapples...then Up, Down, Left, or Right....then A or B. That a shit load of moves. Not to mention you had counters...reversals...even team moves.

Here's a couple nostalgic moments I have had. What are some of your guys' most memorable moments?

• THQ MAN!! <-- FTW This mutha scudda was so badass!
  
  
• Create-A-Character! RockBottom+Peoples Elbow+Stunner=Win
  
  
• Beat-Yo-Ass-Down move: The finisher move where the guy just punches the shit outta you! Get that off like 3 time sin a row and your opponent gets KO'd like a lil bitch
  
  
• Grabbin chairs from out of the crowd: I remember seeing the other 3 people just roll out once the guy came running into the ring. One good hit with this and you could be camped for a minute!
  
  
  
• 2v2 matches were always the best! Getting that pin off at the lats minute as your partner gets in the ring is so epic!
  

I know you prices still have the N64, right? Man, I would go BUY this game if you guys wanted to rock some Wrestlemania one weekend! It'd be a blast!

Yeah, it's really fun. Until you realize your characters look like legos then it just gets old lol. I think we have it?

Dude that game was straight EPIC. I remember spamming the shit out of "a"... I think "b" was the grab. My favorite was jumping from the top rope and bustin' the dude's face open where he all grabs it and you see blood. LOL. Fun ass 64 games.
