"Title Match Pro Wrestling," released by Absolute Entertainment in 1987, is a classic wrestling game for the Atari 2600/VCS console. In this early representation of professional wrestling, players can choose from four different wrestlers, each with unique attributes and abilities, to compete in singles or tag-team matches. The game supports both single-player and multiplayer modes, allowing for competitive play with friends. Players need to employ various wrestling moves including punches, kicks, and grapples to weaken and pin their opponents within the confines of a traditional wrestling ring, all showcased with colorful, though simple, graphics characteristic of the era.
"Title Match Pro Wrestling" was part of a genre that was relatively less explored on the Atari 2600, making it a noteworthy entry for offering sports entertainment fans an opportunity to experience the wrestling world in their living room. Although not as advanced as later console generations in terms of gameplay mechanics and graphics, this title was significant for capturing the essence of professional wrestling in an accessible form. Moreover, the ability to choose between different wrestlers and the inclusion of a tag-team feature were innovative at the time, highlighting the game's attempt to diversify the gaming experience on a platform known for more straightforward game designs.
