The Best Undiscovered Sega Genesis / Megadrive Games - RetroGaming with Racketboy http://www.racketboy.com/retro/the-best-sega-genesis-games-hidden-gem

A pre-taped edition of SmackDown Friday didn't update the Roman Reigns situation or that Braun Strowman is Goldberg's new opponent at WrestleMania, so we're talking wrestling video games on the Saturday edition of Wrestling Observer Live.

As both a longtime wrestling fan and gamer, I have been playing wrestling video games nearly since their beginning. We talk about everything from Tag Team Wrestling in the arcades, Pro Wrestling on the NES, WWF Royal Rumble on both the SNES and Sega Genesis, WWF No Mercy, WWF Smackdown: Here Comes the Pain, WWF Day of Reckoning, the WWE 2K series, and Fire Pro Wrestling World.

We take your calls and tweets on WWF WrestleMania 2000, WWF WrestleFest, WCW Superbrawl, WCW vs NWO World Tour. and some very obscure games like FMW and Antonio Inoki. I also tell you my all-time favorite game, a choice that isn't very common.

Really? Thought he was already established as the protagonist of SF I. If anything he just got caught offguard by Blanka's cannonball.

Ryu now vs Ryu then seems like he can't get washed at all.

They have increased the number of different fans for a few years now.

If we are talking about crowd SOUND, now that is something the NBA Live series has over 2K.

I remember seeing SFII for the first time in the arcade.
It was amazing.

Blanka, in particular, caught my eye...a green beast that could electrocute?!?!? Sign me up.
That's who I'm choosing (initally - although I settled with Ryu & Ken like a lot of other folks.)

I do believe the Blanka character was a major selling point for the game when it released.
So the cover makes sense to me...to keep him a selling point for the home version(s.)

My 2 cents

the main star in their series are

( Street Fighter ) Ryu

( Tekken) Jin

(Mortal Kombat) Scorpion

(Killer Instinct ) Jago

(King of Fighters) Terry

 

[DCAllAfrican]

(Mortal Kombat) Scorpion

Interesting pick here.

I think Scorpion was the people's champ but I think the developers PUSHED Lui Kang in that top Slot. (Considering he won the 1st MK Tournament)

I just realized that you said star and not character. I'd still give Orchid that title in KI.

Terry is only in US. Kyo got him in the East.

 

[michduffey]

(Killer Instinct ) Jago

I always thought Fulgore was the main guy for the KI series.

i started out with ryu...but once my friend started beating me with ken i realized how much better his dragon punch was i started playing with ken...ive used ken ever since sf2...time flies!

seeing and playing sf2 changed videogames for me...after that i think the only game i really got into outside of the street fighter series was tekken and gran turismo...the mortal kombat series was awesome too
