Man I loved that game. I loved it even before I became a wrestling fan, that and Superstars.

I believe I saw a cabinet for it on ebay a while ago.

That game was the shit back in the day. My friend and I used to play it all the time.

No one can beat the team of Ted Didiase and Earthquake. :cool:

I just spent a week at Disney World, and my resort had this in the arcade. That and X-Men (with the controls badly fucked) and the Simpsons game. I geeked out big-time.

awesome gif of the doomsday device on earthquake. i can see whoever was using earthquake chose mr perfect as his partner....that game always seemed technologically ahead of its time (1991). i remember jake would spin his index finger in the air before he went for the ddt! :yes:

Dammit. I had a hard time beating the Legion Of Doom in that game. Once they hit the Device, it was over.

That or I sucked.

Get MAME. Muliple Arcade Machine Emulator. And this rom from http://www.planetemu.net/index.php?section=roms&dat=352&page=w

And you will be playing it again.


Warning, there are a few popups.

Here in my hometown it was in the bowling alley and the local swimming baths although I remember it being called Royal Rumble or something. The Rumble on it was the greatest. I would love to play that game again.

Download MAME32. It is the easiest to run. Then put the roms in the roms folder. At the main menu hit file, then audit all games. It should then show up on the available tab and you can play it from there.

For curiosity what resort was it. When I went roughly 10 years ago I stayed at Caribbean Beach Resort and swear the arcade had those same games (not sure about Simpsons but definitely X-men and Wrestlefest
