  • It's funny how you first praise these games, but then give each one of them the same critique. Make up your mind dude. They're either awesome, or they're "the same thing again with few changes'. Personally i love these AKI games mostly equally, and i don't agree at all with your WCW Revenge comments. P.S Who even plays with Caw's only? -_-

  • AKI said they'd make another wrestling game if they had a publisher. Such a shame because I'm afraid this will never happen.

  • The forgotten mention was the Def Jam games AKI made with the same engine. The games were way more over the top and lacked realism, but practically played the same.

  • I alwasy thought wcw/nwo revenge was the best update and greatest wrestlinggame in it;s day of all time and I always loved wcw

  • Are you serious? WWF No Mercy was easily the best out of any of them, and easily the best wrestling game of all time to this day. And what are you talking about in relation to the backstage areas not having much to do? Wha, you want them to go backstage and be able to sit down and have a coffee or something? The backstage areas were awesome.

  • Your voice is annoying as shit

  • i remember paying 60 bucks for no mercy when i was like 12. hahaha. and now i have it for free on my computer.

  • i remember this game. i loved it as a kid

  • WCW vs the world was the first in this series and that was on PSX only, why they didnt continue the series on both consoles is a mystery to me, PSX ended up with crap like Nitro and Thunder.

  • Gonna go hook up my N64 and play this stuff again.

  • Nothing wrong with WCW, its a hell of alot better than anything WWE has put on in the past 3/4ths of a decade

  • Revenge was still slightly better than World Tour because of newer wrestlers and costume changing and I played both a lot.

  • in No Mercy you can go up to the lockers and bar counter to get weapons backstage

  • no bad wrds

  • IMO,VPW2 is the best of all the AKI games.

  • all stars is cool.but these ones are still the best.

  • i still play vpw2 and no mercy like a nut, but vpw64 is really pretty cool... all the heros of world tour in here: saladin, hannibal and so on xD (were there any real paragons?) but even more than in world tour, also that guy with a tiger mask (i think it was misawa in young days). really... WHO WANTS TO LEARN MORE ABOUT WRESTLING HISTORY SHOULD PLAY THE OLD AKI GAMES!

  • all these games are the shit!!! wcw vs nwo world tour i played when i waz 8. i missed the bus in 2nd grade on a friday while playin it. so i stayed home and played it all day

  • Shame he didn't review Def Jam Vendetta, Def Jam: Fight for NY and the Kinnikuman GameCube/PS2/PSP games.

  • I played VFW2, and found a code to translate most of the Japanese text. Comes in 10 parts though. :/

  • VPW 2 actually had a few cool quirks that seperated it from wrestlemania 2000. one of the most major being the mma mode in gameplay. also if you're running it on an emu there are translation patches for it.

  • you my friend must really hate WCW. because on WCW vs. nWo you said WCW was your only complaint.

  • Dude....I gotta say....I love your reviews!!! Another thing I want to mention. If you have never played "Def Jam Fight For NY" I suggest you do so.....especially if you are a fan of the THQ/AKI Wrestling games. It also was a THQ game and they adopted a LOT of the controls from the wrestling games they teamed on. Its probably the closest thing to any of these games you will find on another system...Playstation 2 to be exact.

  • well WCW/NWO revenge had japanese wrestlers in it. just not as much.

  • whenever i watch this video, i feel like going to sleep.

  • I loved how you kept having Hogan getting squashed in the WCW game videos. LOL

    The AKI games were great, but for the total package, KOC2, made by Spike, is the current leader of all wrestling video games ever made.

  • I can't believe you were a WCW hater. Both federations were spot on when Revenge was released. Those secret characters were cool and the the main characters were needed to fill the nWo roster.

  • I was playing Smack Down vs Raw 2010 and they just don't compare to AKI's take on Wrestling games. Yukes sucks!

  • these games for ps1 LMAO 32 bits can only go so far homie.

  • oh yeah and i heard fire pro is coming to xbox arcade... man imagine no mercy with online PLAY :)

  • Still the best wrestling games made!!

  • nice vid. You seem to more of a WWF fan compared to WCW. Growing up, I preferred WCW tbh. Great video regardless.

  • wcw was the best :)

  • @MartynJohnParkinson Yes. Yes it was.

  • Comment removed

  • WCW had a great wrestling cast, back then your just being a wwf fan boy

  • i have wwf no mercy but i don't know how to get in ring O.o .... you can tell me please?

  • You forgot Def Jam Vendetta. It uses a modified AKI engine.

  • @MrCelestial1992 Uhm you can not play as RVD at all in that game (unless created obviously) . Not unlockable, wasn't even in WWF till 2001

  • Great review man, brought back a lot of memories

  • What happened to MJC? He should review Giant Gram and Giant Gram 2000 for the dreamcast!

  • @XSC3 I think his page is gone :(

  • @JamesRayder2020 hey, I found it! He's got an account (MJC2021) on "revver" dot com. while half of the videos are choppy (and sometimes you have to refresh them multiple times to even view them)... but they are all there and can be downloaded (even more than people have posted on youtube). The last one he did was Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, though. (on Feb 20, 2009)

  • you never did the ECW game why?

  • yah jeff hardy

  • great era of wrestling games

    when wrestling was at its apex also

  • why you always haten on wcw

  • i wish they made ecw aki games that would be !!FUCKIN AWESOME!! and great review 

  • Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 is more like No Mercy when it comes to gameplay. Such as A+B strikes and grapples which increases standing move variety by 50%. With the Japanese characters having better moves than the American guys most of the time, and a good CAW system (albeit Japanese) VPW2 holds up with No Mercy for Puro fans, if not surpasses it.

  • Ok... you tried to freebase smoke a cartridge....... wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­ww!

    explinaton plz?!?!?!!

  • world tour was awesome, im gonna buy it. i play revenge and wrestlemania 2000 a couple times a week...i honestly dont care too much about the japanese wrestlers on it though..couldve used more wcw guys instead imo

  • i got all 4 aki games and i love them

  • dude forreal virtual pro wrestling 2 had mma move and strike and better mechanics it literally shitted on WM2000

  • Hayabusa was in revenge he was Han Zo Man

  • I only play these games as created characters, so the roster doesn't matter to me.

  • AKI were the shit hands down. Even Def Jam fight for New york was fun and it was devoloped by the same company along side EA Games!!!

  • WCW vs NWO World Tour!!! haha I forgot about that game, that was my first wrestling game I loved it.

  • this was a terrible review and where was wcw vs the world

  • wasnt on N64 genius

  • @trailerboy415 well it doesnt say that on the title or description also you keep saying how not alot changed between each game when there is alot of new stuff in each game. and i quite sure wm2000 season mode doesnt just go on and on like you said its just one year and ends after you fight at wrestlemaina i could be wrong about that as i havent played for a long time

  • @809Ollie Not much gameplay wise

  • @trailerboy415 there were a lot of subtle improvements actual from each game. what were you expecting? its still considered the best wrestling gameplay to date so why would they need to change the bigger stuff?

  • @809Ollie Never said it was bad just saying it could have evolved a little and who knows we could have had games even better then what we got which was great to begin with

  • @trailerboy415 Do you not know about the Def Jam series, they used the same AKI fighting system, Def Jam Vendetta and Fight for NY, there was a third I just never played because everyone said it sucked. But Vendetta used the wrestling rules, fighting in the ring. And NY used street fighting. They both were pretty good, But you would probably like Vendetta over NY.

  • @DreamKing2 Def Jam was spawned off a WCW game that never came out I know that much but i actually dont care for the Def Jam games so i don't know how the newer ones play

  • @trailerboy415 Oh, well I just found out that the first 2 were developed by AKI but Icon wasnt and the new one will not be either. You probably dont care about the people in it or that atmosphere but its was nice to use that fighting system after not using it for such a long time since I never played the WWF ones (i didnt even know about them till today) This is one of my favorite series, World Tour was my first N64 game. But if you can ignore the story in DJ Vendetta it is very fun,

  • @809Ollie what would you had have them do though as far as i was aware they pushed the n64 to its limits and they didn't have the budget to use the expansion pack

  • @809Ollie I agree.

  • The first REAL pro wrestling video game that proved wrestling games could be epic is POWER MOVE PRO WRESTLING from 1997,FOR PLAYSTATION.He needs to get his facts straight

  • I remember I hated WCW but when World Tour came out I grew to like it only because it had a solid game. A lot of WWF games just sucked ASS! Im with you though I was very pleased that THQ/AKI went with WWF and that the created characters were a whole lot more fun to use. I disagree though, there were some developments especially with the animations becoming more realistic and resemble the fighters moves more.

  • I own every game in this video. They are all great.

  • It did kinda suck they were all about n64. ps1 and ps2 were great. ps3 is a gigantic failure but who knows. Maybe some decent games could have saved it. Xbox 360 could use a great wrestling game.

  • I remember in wcw nwo revenge you could use a gameshark to glitch it and get even more characters.

  • no mercy was the best of the aki games

  • how you smoke a video game

  • i think that michael loves the japanese wrestlers, which is cool, but at the same time i dont think without their presence makes the game "crippled". i enjoyed WCW/NWO Revenge even though the japanese wrestlers were out of the game besides a handful

  • You're right when you said "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

    This formula was perfect, and people are still making updates of this game with current rosters. If AKI was still around, TNA would be wise to hire them for their next wrestling game

  • mjcx,

    out of the 4 aki wrestling games, which do you think is the best and your favorite??

  • the best games!!! THE OLD AKI WRESTLING GAMES FROM THE 90s..

  • the wcw/nwo games were actuly my fav

  • never played VFW64 or 2. but I loved WcW/NWO Revenge and WM2000 the most.

  • WWF No Mercy and wwf wrestlemenia 2000

  • WWF No Mercy

    WWF WM 2000

    WCW/NWO REVENGE

    WCW/NWO WORLD TOUR

    four best wrestling games ever imo in that order.

  • petition for aki make tna game .petitiononline. com/TNAKI/petition.html

  • why the hell did they make No Mercy more lousy than this one although NM came out 4 years later? AND DONT SAY ANYTHING AGAINST WCW, KID! WHEN THIS GAME CAME OUT WCW WAS FUCKING NUMBER 1!! NWO ERA, MAN!

  • I never said shit about WCW I just didn't like it at the time so calm the hell down. WCW no doubt was the best Wrestling Promotion on the planet at the time but just because it was the best doesn't mean I need to like it so get your shit straight and calm you tities down

  • Yeah, they were the best. They had all the legend Hogan, Sting, Nash, Hall, Piper etc. while WWF had to build up Austin and Michaels as new main eventer, and the Rock. All the new young kids. WCW already had tons of legends at that time.

  • Are you the same guy as mike.If so do you plan on making any more reviews because ive checked your revver acount and you havent been on their in ages.And if your not mike you can still review the Devil May Cry series right mainly number 3 since its a prequel to the first game.Sorry you might not be good enough to review/beat devil may cry 3(which by the way is only on ps2)

  • No I am not I just uploaded his videos cause he left youtube

  • oh sorry i didn't notice this was a 64 only review, but still 5 stars

  • informative, but don't forget def jam vendetta and fight for new york (even though not technically a wrestling game)

  • Comment removed

  • personally i thought WCW was pretty cool.

  • whats aki

  • it's the company that made these games

  • the developer of the games.

  • @kevinbaconfan12 the company who made the game

  • @kevinbaconfan12 you stupid fool. DIE MORTAL BEAST!!!!

  • try to go to my youtube page

  • oKAY nOW WHAT?

  • The Aki/Asmik engine was fantastic. The N64 games didn't even feel like wrestling but more or a brawling game. I'd spend many nights playing these games all night long with my friends along with GoldenEye. Good times... good times.

  • this game was awesome at the time. my friend brought his 64 over during xmas break and we stayed up fo a week straight playing it with little to no sleep each night.

  • i still have no mercy- still play it today!

  • I absolutely agree in the early part of the video... I used to play old 2D games right before WCW NWO World Tour, that's quite a giant leap from arcade & LJN games found on SNES

  • In Revenge, I loved Han Zo Man and Shogun. Heck, that's why I go by Shogun on Xbox live. And in Wrestlemania 2000 & No Mercy, I too used my custom characters.

  • One problem: it was WCW??? Are you a fucking idiot! 1996-97 in WCW was quite possibly the greatest year in wrestling history. Sorry that John Cena wasn't in the game, nerd.

  • sorry you were one of the 5 fans of WCW. And yeah cause I really want to play as John Cena cause I'm retarded and love Cenas skillz

  • I fucking agree with Roguemember! And 5 WcW fans?? WCW was fucking awesome! Your a fucking idot. Your review sucked and made you sound like a douche bag who thinks he is too good for these games! Fuck You.

  • excuse me for liking WWF back in the day over this single territory old fart of a company. and yes I watched WCW but when ECW came around that was the big thing in the North East and WWF started with Attitude and that was it for WCW. WWF got ratings with Tyson How good were the ratings for when Kiss played live on WCW?

  • Fuck, i like WWF in the attitude era too. It was fucking awesome! But WCW was amazing and had a lot better characters.

  • No it didn't it had the has beens and Goldberg. Everyone else on that roster was treated like dirt.

  • Man your fuckin whack.

  • watch the Rise and Fall of WCW and tell me the younger guys weren't treated like dirt. Jericho was fuckin paid nothing and Giant was getting less money than Hogan when he was World Champion

  • HEEEEYYYY!!!!!!!!!!! Come on man! Hogan still wrestled w/ HBK at S. Slam in 05 & when that happened, he teamed with him and Cena and were great. I know 123, Ramon, & Diesel sold out, but come on man. U know better, but if U want my opinion, WCW's roster made it famous.

  • WCW should be better if there is no Hogan and Nash.When Hogan fires Austin and Nash start to book matches,that was the final nail in WCW's coffin.

  • first off awesome English, Second Hogan didn't get rid of Austin Bischoff did because Austin was gone for so long. Third WHAT THE FUCK DOES THIS HAVE TO WITH THE VIDEO?

  • First of all you start this WCW shit,secondly do a little research before you start talking shit about the history of wrestling,wait,nevermind you wont worth my time.

  • Really cause Hogan never had enough power to fire people and once more i have to ask WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH THE FUCKING VIDEO?

  • hahahahahahhhahahhahaha

  • HEEEEYYYY!!!!!!!!!! Don't say that 2 him! I agree that WCW was awsome because of the roster, but U got 2 admit that back then, when Nash & Hall sold out WWF, they got good, but WWF back then had a little bit bigger amount of fans.

  • Hogan is a terrible wrestler. Now Entertainer is a different story and he's a great entertainer to this day. Also they had that bigger crowd for only 82 weeks. WWF Had the biggest crowd for about 20 years by that point and after that period of 82 weeks WWF pounded them into the ground for over 100 weeks after. and now wheres WCW? in the golden toilet of Vince McMahon

  • awesome review man good videos keep em comin..

  • dude i so agree we need aki to make new games like theese or at least make vpw english

  • no entiendo ni un culo

  • I think that the show was popular because of the roster including Hogan, Nash, Hall, Piper, Guerrerro, Bret Hart, Jim Neidhart, Sting, Goldberg, etc.

  • how to set up a table

  • Ive played and owned all except the Japanese games. You think aki will make a new game anytime soon?

  • They haven't made any more for quite a long time, but with the old games, and possibilities now for much better graphics, new moves, a new and possibly bigger roster, to me, I think an interesting comeback game would be a WCW vs WWE kind of game. But it would be so cool if they could!

  • I've seen it and love it. Wish I had a Japanese PS2 to play it along with Wrestle Kingdom.

  • I wish I have a famicom 64. Just to play the japanese wrestling games.

  • yay thers japan wrestlers

  • Awesome video, dude. My friend and I spent so many hours playing these growing up. Hearing the news that AKI was going to do start doing WWF games was probably one of the happiest days of my life.

  • Def Jam Vendetta would be considered an AKI wrestling game actually. Same exact control scheme but it de-evolved back to the "world tour" move set. But it is the spiritual succesor to these games and alot of people didnt realize this. AKI really needs to come back to wrestling since SvR couldnt do as good of a job.

  • yeah when i got def jam i was like crap this seems familiar lol

  • Comment removed

  • warzone was hellas fun

  • if only it was a WWE game

  • theres mods that have current WWE rosters

  • i want an attitude roster

  • at 8:49 thats vader

  • Comment removed

  • no mercy take you backstage

  • i remember playing wcw/nwo revenge i wasn't so good

  • warzone was only cool because the wrestlers do these short clips

  • wcw revenge is kind of sucky i also like wtour because of the japonise wrestlers.

  • i love aki they should come back and make wwe games.

  • I have all 4 North American games and VPW2 and I would rate them like this:

    5. WM 2000

    4. WCW vs. NWO WT

    3. WCW/NWO Revenge

    2. WWF No Mercy

    1. VPW2

    My reasons are this: Major Puro and MMA fan (VPW2), love doing moves through a table/onto a chair (NM), easy to learn and play with friends (Revenge), first AKI game to play (WT), first good WWF game but that's all it was (WM2000).

    If they did to this series what they with Fire Pro Returns, it would be the ultimate wrestling game.

  • I loved everyone of the AKI games cept the japan ones cuz i never played them...but i felt like it kept getting better every game...im gonna go on ebay right now an grab no mercy so i can kick my brothers ass like i used to back in 2000 lol

  • is hannibal sopuse to be hiabusa

  • I thought wcw vs nwo revenge was awesome!!!

  • where im can download WWF Wrestlemania 2000 ?

  • his name is the great sasuke not sazuki

  • You sound like you reading off a paper, man.

  • no mercy is the best game wrestling game ive ever played in my whole life

  • AKI changed they're name to Syn Sophia, hope they'll make another wrestling game one of these days

  • pretty accurate. wouldn't anyone like to see any AKI developed american wrestling title today? (i prefer that it be a TNA title)

  • yeah same TNA needs help because Midway just sucks at making wrestling games.

  • how and where can i find the virtual pro wrestling games?

  • japan

  • I can help

  • The gameplay is still awesome, but the graphics just can't compare with SvR these days.

  • yeah but graphics aren't everything, gameplay over graphics any day of the week

  • Graphics aren't everything. You need to appreciate a game for its gameplay. Besides, SvR sucks! Graphics don't make a game great, gameplay does.

    Gameplay > Graphics

  • chyna was the best one in ever game

  • no mercy is the besr

  • If I win the lottery I'm gonna hire all the AKI guys and get me a WWE / TNA license and have them develop the latest and greatest wrestling game with state of art graphics.

  • WcW had a way better roster, WWF had The Rock and Stone Cold, WCW had Hogan and Scott Hall, For me WCW had legends and future legends , while WWF has has beens.

  • you can't compare wcw and wwe games on the n64

  • well you kinda can since they are pretty much the same game

  • Comment removed

  • Aki should've developed the TNA Impact! game, not Midway.

  • All I got to say, is honeslty, your awesome.

  • wow...takes me back....thank u so much.
