I really appreciate the time and effort broskie puts into being himself like this. It's an interesting and refreshing dynamic in today's wrestling industry to be so transparent to the fans. Very genuine sir and to put slang to it " you're the shizznit" matt!
Best WCW game they ever made! Goldberg and Booker T were my go to guys! Booker T used to win a ton of CPU Vs CPU matches because he had those strong kicks and he had a good submission move with that arm bar.
@@mageside there are still pc master race snobs in the comments? No one cares anymore! 🤣 I game on everything, I mod the hell out of my games. My point still stands that it would be fun for devs to think of fun stuff like that.
Okay, I'll be honest. Hearing Broski played this way and not all professional-game-streamer style, I was skeptical. But it totally worked out okay! Next, WWF Wrestlemania 2000!
Man I tell you what. You made my day. You took me back to a time when life was good and there was no care in the world. Me and my friends would get together and we would play this game for hours. We would stay up for days sometimes cause we had that much energy. I remember booking my own story lines and commentating my own matches and recording them on VHS. Much like you're doing here recording with the TV but much crappier quality. Unfortunately I have none of those left as they didn't survive hurricane Ivan. But when Brickowski came out I laughed my ass off at your reaction. And the name. I had forgotten about these characters. I may be wrong but I think some of these were the game developers. And it was a way to fill out the roster. But I do remember making him the world heavyweight champion and my friends just giving me the shit for it. Brickowski is legend and I'm thinking you got the inspiration for Broski from him somewhere deep down in the back of your mind. The names are similar lol.
@@roughbuff turns out my brother had an N64 with this game and I didn't even know it and me and him played it after watching this video. we went back in time for a few hours and it was awesome and he was this video that brought it all together.
I got the same gifts that year. N64, revenge, and diddy Kong racing. I think my older brother got goldeneye too but not sure if it was that year or next. Oh and banjo kazooie Just asked my brother and we also got the south Park game
@@thesuperheroes951 It wasn't as memorable. It was just a different time for me when those games released. Like high school to college. What I remember most about those early Smackdown/Thunder games were that characters just got up quick. I recall using Lesnar and Goldberg the most though.
Very convenient timing for an edit and no mention of Benoit. It’s sad that all his hard work is being erased. The man had problems but there’s no need to pretend he never existed.
Wayne Murphy Yeah, it’s an absolute shame! It’s absolutely terrible what happened to him, his wife, and young child, but I don’t think that all of the sudden you just get completely erased like he never existed or achieved anything in his professional career.
@@turntalesoffical why would you even glorify a person who just killed his wife and son? And also why would you glorify a person who bullies rookies? IMO he deserves to be frickin erased from history.
@@turntalesoffical It's not like he MURDERED! a couple of people including a KID! or anything. Benoit fans like to say that, but "erase" his murder spree when talking about him.
Man i so wish to be a kid again when seeing this. The debates alone over ps vs Nintendo and all the pros n cons over games and the rumble pack vs dual shock and multi player. Especially wrestling games
Why did they mess with the formula? It clearly worked because people still play these games today and they are considered classics, so it makes perfect sense to create an up to date version of No Mercy, but why is it taking so long??
Because it would have became tiring over time and a break would be needed from it eventually. One can only take the same formula and use it constantly before it gets repetitive. The 2k series became like that over time so many drifted back. Hell, as much as I loved the wwf smackdown games, I was getting tired of those to until SVR started to evolve. Now I'm at a stage where the "realism" has been around for longer than I expected so I went back. The transition since SVR. SVR-2011, WWE 12-2K20. That's a lot of games. Smackdown just had: 1,2,JBI,SYM and HCTP.
This is my favorite wrestling video games all the time wcw nwo Revenge on Nintendo 64 i November play wcw nwo Revenge all the time i was Little kid on my Nintendo 64 i love wcw nwo Revenge
Someone probably already said this but the random gimmicky wrestlers like "Shogun" and "Executioner" were actually AJPW legends like Kenta Kobashi and Toshiaki Kawada, just with different appearances. There's a mod for this game called Revenji that edits their appearances back in the game.
Former THQ producer Sanders Keel put Raven on the cover to, among other reasons, broaden the games appeal to wrestling fans who watched everything, like ECW, etc....
"I thought this would only take 20 minutes." You chose a 40-man royal rumble in a game where only 4 men can be in the ring at a time, Broski! Great content, I wish you had chosen Championship Mode instead.
The reason for many of the fake characters was due to a licensing problem with some Japanese wrestlers. They changed their looks but kept the moves. For instance, "Shogun" is apparently Toshiaki Kawada.
Honestly I really enjoyed watching a stream like this and if you wanted to stream on Twitch it would set you apart. It feels like you're in the room just hanging out.
Broski, how the hell did u get it to work on a newer flat screen tv 😂 i tried on an old hd 720p and quality was horrible. It won't play on the new models especially not with 4k and all that jazz they come with today. If there's a way i couldn't figure it out so i just bust out my "ancient" little box tv and re live my childhood lol
A true classic, man. Revenge is one of the greatest of all time.
You might need to guide him on how to record playing games on a video.
Is that you Dan Dan??
Wow... 616 with the run-in on a Major Pod video. Worlds collide. This is tremendous.
It's overrated like no mercy
VideoGame FightClub you know nothing
I like how he sits close to the screen like everyone used to do in the 90's!
Been wanting to see you guys play classic wrestling games for years!
I really appreciate the time and effort broskie puts into being himself like this. It's an interesting and refreshing dynamic in today's wrestling industry to be so transparent to the fans. Very genuine sir and to put slang to it " you're the shizznit" matt!

Still my favorite wrestling game. So so many hours spent on Revenge.
Modern wrestling games really gotta bring back the "ding" for low blows.
mods can easily add that sound effect in so sorry for you console players

Awesome video 👍

That's the best one on that style game engine.
Ty Shred no mercy is the best, ever!
@@Celicagame13 that's the name of it! No mercy! Yeah that one rules.
Dude so much nostalgia watching this. I used to play this all the time with my buddies as a kid
You missed out. Turning on realism would have made them bleed.
This camera is so angled, I feel like I’m watching tv backstage at RAW
Except Matt is facing the TV instead of side-eyeing it, haha.

They were based on real Japanese wrestlers at the time.
Can probably get an old console and playable copy for 100$ ;) I just ordered my game.

You filming yourself playing the game is so perfect.
brickowski was robbed!
I'm shocked Matt didn't select WCW/nWo Souled Out as the arena.
Great content. S/O mark too for editing this in a pleasing way to watch. We’re interested in more stuff like this fs!!
WCW/NWO Revenge was one of my favorite games to play when I was a teen and I still love it
My all time favorite wrestling game
No mercy was a true game changer bit i loved this game so much
One of the best Wrestling games of all time! Right up there with *No Mercy*
You played as two of my fig fed former World Champions? Nice man
Matt: "Everyone's favorite"
Me: "Sti.."
Matt: "Glacier!"
😆
Christmas '98 - I got a N64 and Revenge. It was the best Christmas of my life. :)
@Misteriosi81 got Metal Gear too!
I got the same gifts that year. N64, revenge, and diddy Kong racing. I think my older brother got goldeneye too but not sure if it was that year or next. Oh and banjo kazooie
Just asked my brother and we also got the south Park game
I still have that game and WWF No Mercy and Wrestlemania 2000. For some reason I never get tired of playing them.
i have to go to work and im still on the couch watching this!!! honestly I kind of love the old school filming style!
Awesome video Matt. I was just playing this the other day. One of the best wrestling games ever
Watching this brought back many fond memories of playing this game. Thanks for posting.
No Mercy was like the last best wrestling game to me.
U didn’t like hctp?
@@thesuperheroes951 It wasn't as memorable. It was just a different time for me when those games released. Like high school to college. What I remember most about those early Smackdown/Thunder games were that characters just got up quick. I recall using Lesnar and Goldberg the most though.
id go with HCTP or even the first SD vs Raw
23:43 The Giant showing his cruiserweight skills
That Benoit cover up though lol
Pretty sure it was Chris Benoit at the pause/shower part.
lol my thoughts too.
Very convenient timing for an edit and no mention of Benoit. It’s sad that all his hard work is being erased. The man had problems but there’s no need to pretend he never existed.

No mercy next!
Plot twist : Chelsea was holding the camera this whole time

i always liked Han zo Mon and then i found out he was Hayabusa in disguise and i liked him even more!
Had WCW Revenge and played it relentlessly with my only friend I had back in the 90s. Goldberg, spear, jackhammer, pin.
Utube are you a good person by living waters
AKI the makers of this game are making the AEW video game too, gonna be fire!
THQ man was one of my fave players IYKYK
My only criticism is the aspect ratio isn't 4:3 haha
WCW/NWO Revenge was THE game. Counter moves for dayyyyyyys
Played the battle royal till sun came up. Goldberg spear everyone
Who was that mysterious man in the red pants who didn't get an intro? That shower broke at a very convenient time.
It was Chris Benoit
When?
My favourite wrestling game of all time!
Over 20 years old and still better than the wrestling games today
Former THQ producer Sanders Keel put Raven on the cover to, among other reasons, broaden the games appeal to wrestling fans who watched everything, like ECW, etc....
Are you sure you're sitting close enough to the TV? Lol
Yeah that’s going to fuck up your vision
@@jamiem2494 the myth is that it doesn't cause any lasting damage but you can absolutely strain your eyes sitting that close to the TV.
wcw vs nwo revenge best wrestling game ever and still better than anything 2k has done
damn that music brings me back
In real life I got tardis bro
I can teleport to the nether past at 19s bro
I still have my original N64 and this game and I play it all the time! My fav faction ever was Raven's Flock so I'm always one of them.
Hahaha, finishing up with the Alex Wright dance was the perfect way to go!
The episode I’ve been waiting for!
Man this brings back some memories. Shoutout from bellmore
"I thought this would only take 20 minutes."
You chose a 40-man royal rumble in a game where only 4 men can be in the ring at a time, Broski! Great content, I wish you had chosen Championship Mode instead.
Hell yea man! The ultimate broski playing the ultimate wrestling game
The reason for many of the fake characters was due to a licensing problem with some Japanese wrestlers. They changed their looks but kept the moves. For instance, "Shogun" is apparently Toshiaki Kawada.
Best underrated wrestling game ever loved this on my n64
This would be. How I would stream. Lol. I got no clue. So this is what I would do as well. Hahaha. Love it. Love you guys. Keep up everything you do
Awesome old school gaming. Love the TV is that Sony XBR 900e have also, but the 49 inch.
I hope you do more videos like this broski! You should do No Mercy next!
I used to love the old WWE games as well!
There’s gotta be someone out there who can create a modded roster on this game for Turmoil and Thrillzone.
Honestly I really enjoyed watching a stream like this and if you wanted to stream on Twitch it would set you apart. It feels like you're in the room just hanging out.
Great game!
Hey bro, which adapter are you using to connect the n64 to your tv?
You should make a video playing championship mode
Holy smokes! My childhood was World Tour!
More gaming videos please!!! Great job Broski, hopefully I run into you at Disney World someday.
Have a nice day matt
This was my favorite game for the N64 definitely top three wrestling game for me
Does your N64 have some kinda HD adapter?
Man we had some battles back in the day. Awesome to see it played again.
What's with Macho Man and going for pins in over the top rope multi man matches??
Wow! This is classic and one of my favorites. Are you going to play Wrestlemania 2000?
What exactly was the 'slick' editing done? :) entertaining video!
do playthroughs of the championships where you unlock the hidden guys
Runs the table with Das Wonder Kid... Nice haha
I was more of a no mercy guy myself but this game was awesome as well. Basically the same mechanics and great gameplay
Broski, how the hell did u get it to work on a newer flat screen tv 😂 i tried on an old hd 720p and quality was horrible. It won't play on the new models especially not with 4k and all that jazz they come with today. If there's a way i couldn't figure it out so i just bust out my "ancient" little box tv and re live my childhood lol
Favorite game in the Shop back in the day
this was freakinAWESOME!! reminds me of WWF NO MERCY on the Nintendo 64 and id love to see Matt and Brian play this against each other lol
The Real Fun Was When Opponents Get KO’d & Busted Open. It Took A True Artist To Do That Without Weapons.
Even in the game version of the rumble macho man goes for a pin lol
Just cycle through Kanyon's attire. Mortis is there
Thank you for not opening the sealed copy!
This was my childhood
This game was great but No Mercy was incredible.
One of my favorite games as a kid man. Along with Ecw and wwf 2000.
Is this uudd or the major podcast?
lol i was gonna say "don't let it breathe!!!!!"
this was the beginning of the best wrestling games ever made after 64 they went to dog shit
Very cool never played but at least I get to see it played
Goldberg kills the rumble match
Bash at the Beach ;) Good choice
i love this wrestling games wcw nwo Revenge i November play this wrestling games i was lil kid this wrestling games is awesome
Loved this game when it came out, by far my favorite wrestling game
