Nostalgia Trip: WWF Wrestlemania (NES)

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

Wow, never realized the game came out so late, which makes me wonder why Bam Bam was in it. I could've sworn he left about two months after Wrestlemania (IV).

I think the reason Bigelow was in the game was that this game had a LONG development period.

 

Between early 1988 and the game's release, Bigelow went from "Great Tattooed Hope" to a WCW JTTS, Honky Tonk Man went from IC champ to complete jobber and Andre The Giant went from semi-retired to 75% retired.

Sounds reasonable considering the technology. If WWF WarZone(?) on PS came out in 1998, I think it was a bit out-dated considering Bret Hart & British Bulldog were already gone for the obvious reasons, and the Head Bangers were on and off for most of 98-00.
