8 bit Wrestler

Featured in the upcoming movie The Wrestler (video game scene) starring Mickey Rourke

- I added some old school video game footage for the hell of it ;)
- Original 8 bit music written while my mom was visiting my fiance and I. Her feedback was detrimental ;)

That's true lilrick98... I just used the nintendo video because that's all I had at the time ... The music is what's in the film. Actually a slower version of this tune.

great track... and i had alot of great memories of pro wrestling

[jfu222]

Thanks neoxbomb ... defintely brought back some memories making this one (mostly of fighting with my brother for the controller ;)

Nice work, especially the A section is memorable. If anything I think the drums are really what gives it away as "not really nintendo". If you listen to a lot of nintendo drums they are much more sparse than this. Overall nice job! Glad Aronofsky's career survived his last film "The Fountain".

Thanks keithburgun ... yeah I probably got a little too fancy with the drums... I couldn't help myself.

This is rad.

Thanks VeryTasteful ...

[marcosland]

you are wrong. the music is from the fictional game. the footage is not.

[benj008]

is there a downloadable 'the wrestler' movie nintendo game?

[AlexCohen33]

The Music makes it Hell a lot better

[zazelby]

Pretty cool (though it sounds more like a Master System game than a NES game to my old ears).

@BillyCauseyjr double eff that and make it an editable game on the pc... infinite characters instead of a forgettable console download

[BillyCauseyjr]

@XSC3 fuck that, finish the game, add more chars and give us a $4.00 Wiiware,PSN, and live arcade release and I'd be happier than having a rom with two playable chars.

I loved Pro Wrestling on the NES as a kid. Of course the fake "Wrestle Jam" game in the Wrestler was a neat idea. Great idea making a real game instead of just having them mime it with stock footage. Still, it would be really cool if they released the ROM of this game to the public! There is a sizable homebrew scene for classic systems, retro gaming and "new games" on old hardware

[WHATISUTUBE]

RELEASE THE ROM

Star Man rocks. No way the Piranha beats him.

[alphaotakux]

nice song.

[poopalarge]

well done, very convincing. You wouldnt happen to know if there is a rom dump of the game they developed...?

[dumbasspauldentonkin]

This song rocks, I'd love to play Wrestle Jam
