Take a look back at WWF No Mercy as Mini Fortress revisits this classic wrestling video game.
What classic WWF/WWE wrestling games are worth playing now? Quite a few, actually.

WCW/NWO World Tour and Wrestlemania 2000 were peak wrestling games. Back when wrestling was at the top of pop culture, everyone in school would watch. The gameplay is phenomenal and create your own characters opened up the door to WCW vs WWF. What a time!
The best wrestling games range from all-time classics on the N64 all the way up to some surprising new hitters you should check out.
I was always partial to the arcade wrestling games like Saturday night slam masters, wwf superstars, wrestlefest, wrestlemania, wrestle war and then a NES classic... pro wrestling. By the time the N64 era of wrestling games happened, I wasnt into wrestling much anymore (tv & games).
Starman was awesome. I also remember a tan dude with bright yellow hair. Good times!
Virtual Pro Wrestling 1 & 2 > Most games on that list.
Also, WCW/NWO Revenge should be #2 minimum.
WWE 2k13 thanks to the WWE Attitude Mode. Followed by WWE Attitude and ECW Hardcore Evolution.
also: ECW! ECW! ECW!
I feel I should explain my issue with Yuke's
Personally I wanted a 2d fighter, considering AEW been doing promotions with Capcom i thought we'd see a 2D fighter featuring AEW Wrestlers and Street Fighter, whether it's classic side scroller or vs. I'm fed up typical wrestling games, I'd like to see something different. The pro to all this is that they have the original director from No Mercy. Just have to wait and see but I'm not getting my hopes up. At least we have AEW, cos damn WWE sucks atm
I feel like you shouldn't. The game is super early in development and will be using next-now-current gen hardware with fresh insight on today's product. Shut up and give the game a chance.
I'm optimistic for the AEW game. Kenny Omega is a legit gamer, he played a lot of Street Fighter while he was busy putting on classic matches in New Japan. He was training/sparring in Street Fighter with some of the best players in the world - like Infiltration and Poongko for example - during his time off!
Thankfully I got Fire Pro Wrestling World to keep me going for years to come.
Aside from the game breaking glitch... this is definitely a gem on the Nintendo 64! Loved this game so much, spent countless hours on it.
The AKI engine was the greatest, imo. Virtual Pro 2 is still my favorite wrestling game ever, but No Mercy utilized it well, however.
I liked smackdown 2 on ps1 the best. With smackdown: Here comes the pain on the PS2 being the best wrestling game ever.
This is still the best wrestling game ever. We still get together and play this all the time. Awesome create a wrestler and the tightest gameplay in any wrestling game ever.
I wanna play this so bad right now
