Overview
Kinnikuman: Muscle Generations is a Japan only game, which is based on the Kinnikuman (Muscleman) manga/anime series.
There are several game modes to play:
- Victory mode: Initially you have twelve characters from the series to choose from, and once you have chosen one you will have to fight against half a dozen of them. If you defeat them all, then you will unlock some new characters.
- Battle mode: Here you can select several classic fighting modes: single battle, tag battle, tournament battle, elimination battle (5 vs 5) and survival battle.
- Tag Tournament: If the previous mode wasn't enough, here there will be eight tag teams competing for the tag team championship.
There's also a collection page which shows miniatures of all the personages that you unlock in the Victory Mode.
Game controls are easy. One button to block, other to hit and kick, other for grapple attacks, other to jump. Top L and R buttons are used for special attacks, which only can be executed when the special attack meter is filled up. Also, even if this is a wrestling game, there's no pinning involved, combats will end only when the health of one of the players is gone.
