Welcome to the WWF Wrestlemania Arcade Game FAQ for the Sony PSX. 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.

meter
is blinking start hitting all the buttons for a chance to get back up and
fight with a little energy.

Combo Meter - It is the little meter below your energy bar. Each time you
hit your opponent it rises, when it reaches the end you will see the word
