About This Game
As one of the first WWF-licensed games on NES, WrestleMania introduced wrestling gameplay mechanics that would become standard in later titles. The game features digitized crowd noises and referee animations during matches.
Despite limited movesets compared to modern wrestling games, it accurately captured the spectacle of 1980s WWF with character-specific entrances and exaggerated animations. The game was notable for its four-player tag team mode using the NES Four Score adapter.
WrestleMania received mixed reviews for its simplistic gameplay but became commercially successful, selling over 1 million copies. It established the foundation for the WWF War Zone series and other wrestling games that followed.
