WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game (32X)
As creative and over-the-top as professional wrestling can be, you’d think game developers would be hard pressed to find a way to make a game that’s even more ridiculous.

The 32X version is quite good, and those looking for some simple, arcadey fun should definitely check it out. Read the full review for all the wrasslin’ details.
