Kinnikuman: Muscle Generations
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.
