WWF WrestleFest Arcade
21Just like its predecessor, WrestleFest simulates professional wrestling matches. The game adds support for up to four simultaneous players and the ability to insert more credits into the machine to buy energy. Two modes of play are available:
Battle Royal: Royal Rumble lets you choose one fighter from 10 and now you must fight on your own in the ring against five randomly selected fighters. To beat a man, once again you must pin him on his back for the count of three by the referee. You can also throw them out of the ring hoping they don't make it back under 10 seconds. If a man loses then he leaves the ring leaving the other fighters to keep fighting. The winner is the last man standing.
Saturday Nights Main Event: Tag Match lets you choose two fighters from eight fighters or team Demolition. All the fighters signatures moves are included as well as punching, kicking and grappling.
Each fighter has an energy bar which depletes the more you are hit or thrown. If you can reach your partner on the side of the ring you can swap at any time as well as use him in some moves. If you are thrown from the ring then you have 10 seconds to return or it is fight over. The main way to win though is to pin your opponent on his back for a count of three by the referee. As you attempt this his partner will enter the ring to stop this as well as yours entering to stop his partner. If you win the fight then you must defeat four more teams to be able to face Legion of Doom and become champions.
Additionally, after a team member has been on the apron for a certain length of time, they will "power up," temporarily giving them the ability to win all grapples and inflict more damage than usual.
The game features ten selectable wrestlers. Hulk Hogan, The Ultimate Warrior, Ted DiBiase and Big Boss Man return from WWF Superstars. Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Earthquake, Mr. Perfect, Sgt. Slaughter, Demolition Smash, and Demolition Crush, are available as new superstars, with The Legion of Doom (Hawk and Animal) making an appearance as a non-selectable boss tag team champions. Each wrestler has their own signature maneuvers.
The announcer is Michelle 'Mike' McGuirk, who would sometimes substitute for Howard Finkel, the WWF's longtime ring announcer. McGuirk worked as a ring announcer for the WWF between 1988 and 1993 before she left because, according to her, she refused sexual advances made upon her by WWF owner Vince McMahon.
This game has several error and mistakes:
The game's announcer incorrectly announces Sergeant Slaughter's finishing move. Slaughter's finishing move (digging a knuckle into the opponent's temple) is announced as a 'Cobra Clutch', whereas that move is called 'The Torture Bar'. A Cobra Clutch looks totally different: DiBiase's Million Dollar Dream is a Cobra Clutch.
You can beat the Legion of Doom and get their titles via a count-out in the Tag Team portion of the game (Saturday Night's Main Event).
This is incorrect: in pro wrestling, a championship only changes hands via a pinfall or a submission. If the champion/champions are counted-out or are disqualified, they lose the match, but they hold on to their titles.
The rules for the Royal Rumble are not quite correct. In WrestleFest, you can be eliminated by being thrown from the ring, or the traditional means (pin, submission, etc.). This is not correct.
Ever since the WWF Royal Rumble started, the rules for elimination have never changed.
The only way to be eliminated is to be thrown over the top rope. No pinfalls, no submissions. In fact, the referee should not be in the ring during a Royal Rumble as he remains on the outside of the ring to confirm elimination has occurred.
Although the rules for the steel cage match has changed over the years, the Steel Cage Matches in WrestleFest are not done correctly, by pro wrestling rules at the time of release. Again, there should not be a referee in the ring and pinfalls or submissions do not count. To win a steel cage match, you must be the first to escape the steel cage either by breaking the door open and crawling out, or by climbing over the top (in both cases you win when your feet touch the ground first outside the ring). In the present day however, pinfalls do count and a referee is present although you still can win by escaping the cage.
Crush and Smash are not the original members of Demolition. Crush joined the team in 1990 when Ax (Bill Eadie) suffered from ill health caused by an allergic reaction to shellfish and the WWF wanted to 'hide' his illness on television by adding a third member to the team to make them look stronger.
This game was made just as Crush replaced him, but at the time of actual release, Demolition had already broken up.
