Nintendo 64 Longplay [047] WCW vs. nWo - World Tour

Played by: Tarosan WCW vs nWo: World Tour is a professional wrestling video game released in 1997 for the Nintendo 64 game console. Released at the peak of World Championship Wrestling's dominance in the Monday Night Wars, World Tour was THQ's first foray into the N64 wrestling scene and is a semi sequel to the lesser known WCW vs. The World for the PlayStation. It is considered the American counterpart to Japan's Virtual Pro Wrestling 64 and is the second best-selling wrestling game for the N64 console. Asmik Ace Entertainment and AKI approached the title by producing a wrestling game similar to Puroresu and fighting games. The resulting game was well received for its tight construction and ease of play, especially compared to Acclaim's comparatively more difficult and convoluted game, WWF War Zone. In fact, the playing style of World Tour, namely its revolutionary "grappling system," set a standard for pro wrestling video games to be expanded in future THQ titles for many years following. World Tour served as a strong foundation for future THQ wrestling games. Its sequel, WCW/nWo Revenge, would built upon the engine tremendously by introducing ring entrances, improved graphics, more arenas, more signature moves, actual WCW championships, attire modification, and other improvements. The first in a long line of Nintendo 64 Wrestling games from AKI and whilst it was a foundation for future titles in this series like Revenge, Wrestlemania and No Mercy, it's still a pretty good wrestling game for multiple friends to play with. Now what I did here was use Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, Saladin who is Abdullah the Butcher, Black Ninja aka The Great Sasuke and finally the stupidly long and hard all wrestling championship won by one of the greatest wrestlers of all time the Macho Man Randy Savage. This longplay is a tribute to his charisma, intelligence and great ring persona on and off the mic. BONESAW IS READY!!!! - Disclaimer: Most videos by World of Longplays use SaveStates!
