This is the ultimate FAQ for WWF Wrestlemania! This game is avialable for many home entertainment system includind the PSX, SNES, Genesis, 32X, PC CD, and it will be available for the Sega Saturn in March 1996. This game was made by Midway for the arcade. It had a short life in the arcade because of little distribution. It was hard to find because other games (MK3) where holding the attention of many gamers. This is one of the best overlooked games ever. It is now available for your home made by Acclaim. It also seems that this will be the last Midway game made for the home by Acclaim. It seems Acclaim had gained the rights for NBA JAM away from Midway. This made Midway angry, so now Midway will be doing its own home conversions. Midway has already converted one of their biggest games, MK3 for the home systems Acclaim only handled Europeon distribution. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- -- FAQ KEY -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- ^^^^Moves Key^^^^ F - Forward B - Back U - Up D - Down HCF - Half Circle Forward (Back to Down to Forward) HCB - Half Circle Back (Forward to Down to Back) Hold - Charge Rel - Release / Let go 360 - 360 Degrees a full circle P - Punch SP - Power Punch K - Kick SK - Power Kick BL - Block So this is what the PSX controller looks like (sort of): ====SP==== ====SK==== ====BLOCK==== =====BLOCK==== { U } (SP) { B } { F } (P) (SK) { D } (K) [SELECT] [START> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- -- GENERAL KNOWLEDGE -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- ------------------- These Work for all characters---------------------------- Run - P + K You can control the way your fighter runs by pressing Up or Down.
