Two SNK wrestling games, one for the Neo Geo, one of the NGPC. Surprisingly the NGPC is the superior of the two.

I know it's not my place to say, but I'm just a little offended at the constant "3 COUNT BOUT IZ TEH SUXX!"

It's certainly not a high-skill game, but nothing SNK put out before KoF 96 was.

And people still love Street Smart despite IT being a steaming pile of shit.

....I don't even know where I was going with this.

Before I get any comments about the ridiculous character profiles for 3 Count Bout, it should be obvious that I was goofing on how completely ridiculous the game is. That I chose to do so in a kind of stupid way was the whole point.

And holy crap is Big Bang Pro Wrestling awesome. The characters are awesome, the modes are awesome, the gameplay is awesome - just a great freaking game in general.

not entirely familiar with ngpc, so i'll have to check that one out some time.

3 count bout...wow... great graphical detail, excellent overall idea, piss poor execution. you'd think an arcade wrestling game that allows you to leave the ring would be awesome as all hell, but no such luck here.

sorry kitsune, but as a wrestling game(that focuses on wrestling. i disqualify simpsons, the wwe beat em up on the gbc, and the wwe monster truck game), it's pretty near the bottom of the barrel.
