It featured many things not seen in portable wrestling games, like theme music for each of the wrestlers. This game featured eight of the then popular wrestlers, including the now deceased Yokozuna, Shawn Michaels, and the Undertaker. Even though this game is old, it is still fairly fun to play, and is one of the better WWF gameboy games. *********************************************************************** * FAQ * *********************************************************************** Q: How do I start a grapple in this game?

After the startup screens, you will be presented with this the three options of: One-on-One Tag Team Survivor Series One-on-One is a single match between your wrestler and a cpu controlled wrester.

If you select One-on-One or Tag Team, you will be presented with these options: One Fall Brawl Tournament One Fall is a type of match where one wrestler wins when the other is pinned for a 3 count. Brawl is a type of match where a wrestler wins by knocking their opponent's health down to a certain point. Tournament mode allows you to fight every other wrestler one by one. To select one of the options, press start. If you select Survivor Series, you are only presented with: One Fall Brawl After selecting the match type, you have to select the cpu difficulty. The difficulties are easy, normal, and hard. Press start to select one. Next, you reach a screen like this: Opponent Select You Select CPU Select Choosing You select allows you to choose which wrestler(s) you face in one-on-one or tag matches. This screen does not show up if you select Survivor Series. Again, press start to continue. Lastly, you have to select the wrestlers. Select the wrestlers using the start button.

In One Fall mode to win you just have to pin your opponent for 3 seconds. To do this, grapple with your opponent and slam him repeatedly. Whenever he is on the ground, use ground attacks to further weaken him. When he is weak enough, go for the pin with A+B. To win brawl, do the same as above but instead of pinning him, knock him to the ground when he has very low health and pound him with ground attacks. Eventually you will win if you hurt them enough. ##################### Various hints & tips: ##################### - Avoid using the turnbuckle move, as that hurts your wrestler almost as much as the other wrestler. - Dropkicking your opponent is very difficult, and it is wise not to try to attempt to many because it hurts you if you miss. - Try to avoid double tapping in a direction outside the ring because running into the ring or outside will knock your wrestler down. - All the wrestlers have the same moves, so their is no advantage to choosing one over the other. - In tag team mode, tag your teammate often so your wrestlers can heal while outside of the ring. - To win a grapple, rapidly press the control pad from left to right. - In easy mode, grappling is semi-automatic because of the low cpu grappling ability. You can win a grapple if you just press the button at the right time. ################################### Detailed strategy, hints, and tips: ################################### ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Easy Victories: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To accomplish an easy victory follow any of these instructions: "Hard" : Exit the ring, and your opponent will follow. Using the ten second countout, grapple with your opponent until about 6 or 7 on the countdown. Then, do a move like a body slam on them. Quickly go back into the ring, and hopefully your opponent will be counted out. Easy : Another option is to draw your opponent outside, grapple and slam them, reenter the ring to reset your count, then grapple with them until their count reaches ten. When it does, if you are back into the ring before your count reaches ten, you will be an instant winner. Tedious : Another easy victory is accomplished by abusing the cpu's tendency to dropkick everything. If you run back and forth across the ring, avoiding being in the same horizontal row of pixels as your opponent, he will try to dropkick you several times, and each time he will suffer more and more damage. This works well with all skill levels, even though it seems to be better in hard mode. *********************************************************************** * Credits & Extras * *********************************************************************** This FAQ was created by Zephyrmaster (first FAQ) Only these sites are allowed to use the FAQ thusfar: www.gamefaqs.com www.neoseeker.com If you would like to put this FAQ on your site, please email me.
