Description

"Natsume Championship Wrestling," released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), is a wrestling game developed by Natsume and published by Natsume in North America. The game features a roster of 12 fictional wrestlers, each with their own unique moves and tactics, mimicking the high-energy entertainment of professional wrestling circuits. Players can enjoy several modes: a single match, round-robin tournament, or a championship tournament, battling for supremacy in the ring. The game excels in offering a deep repertoire of moves—over 50 moves including holds, throws, and turnbuckle attacks—making each match a dynamic and strategic showdown.

Originally released in Japan under the title "Zen-Nippon Pro Wrestling Dash: Sekai Saikyou Tag," it was effectively a part of the Zen-Nippon Pro Wrestling series which used the actual professional wrestlers from All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW). However, due to licensing issues, when the game was localized for the North American market all references to AJPW and its wrestlers were removed, leading to the creation of a roster of generic wrestlers. Despite this, the gameplay remained robust, and the game was praised for its detailed animation and challenging mechanics. Its strong execution and engaging gameplay mechanics ensure that "Natsume Championship Wrestling" offers a captivating experience for wrestling fans and gamers alike on the SNES platform.
