Ranking The Best Wrestling Video Game For Each Major Console

The wrestling games of years gone by had admittedly been fun, but 2000 is the year when wrestling fans got the first truly great one.

Said 'great wrestling game' - in fact, one some would still claim to this day is the best wrestling game of all time - is WWF No Mercy. Released in November 2000 for the Nintendo 64, this was an offering that completely and utterly changed the game.

With vastly improved graphics, a fresh storyline mode, and a creation suite like no other, No Mercy quickly became a must-play for anyone with even a passing interest in pro wrestling. It's not even an exaggeration to say that some people solely bought themselves an N64 purely to play No Mercy.

Special praise also has to be handed out to 1998's WCW/nWo Revenge when looking at the great N64 games, period, but WWF No Mercy - from the same developers, AKI Corporation - took all of the elements of what made WCW/nWo Revenge so great and turned them up to 11.
