i have that game

the only thing that sucked about that game is that it was hard to get to work

Pro Wrestling was an AWESOME game back in the day. The Amazon, Star Man, Kin Korn Karn? Absolutely classic. Between that and Tag Team Wrestling, I thought the NES had some true wrestling gems.

You have to grapple to do good moves to your opponent though (example: A + Down = Piledriver). Otherwise you're just punching and kicking. And don't worry, you'll be well rewarded for beating the Amazon, as it's one of my favorite boss deaths in the entire game.

Yeah, I'm impressed that you managed to make the Pro Wrestling level suck just as bad as the real thing

Other than that though this game fucking kicks ass. Can't wait until the Megaman level.

Hahaha now I remembered that it was this way in original game also))) The long HP line below just confused me)

Hahaha, why are you dying after only one hit on Contra? That's almost as good as the guy who told us the following:

"The game is trash. Seriously. I'm perfectly OK with NES, as I love pokemon."

It's Contra, dummy.

What the hell! Why on Contra level am I dying being hit only once? Is it some kind of bug?

Headbanger: In the level select screen, put the selection at supermabobo or contrabobo and press up and down repeatedly

Well, that was pretty fun. Loved the rage move against Amazon.

Jan 14th, 2012 07:13 AM

Settle down. My only complaint so far is that I have to go through that damned balloon fight stage to get to the wrestling.

9. Another Castle: you need to find the secret passage in the Zelda level (look for the cracked wall)

There's another review here:
http://jayisgames.com/archives/2012/..._adventure.php

While I am here, I should also tell how to get the secret achievements:

Spoilers!
1. Duck Hunted: During the intro, some ducks will fly around while the camera pans up. Use your mouse to click a duck and get the medal. 2. Headbanger: In the level select, rapidly alternate between "Super Mabobo" and "Contra Abobo" until the medal appears. 3. Bobo Battle: Beat the game, go to the Unlockables menu under "Achievements" and select "Battle Mode". 4. Best Ending Evar: Beat the game and watch the entire ending. 5. Luckdragon: Beat the game, go to the Unlockables menu under "Achievements" and select "Luck Dragon Lunacy". 6. Private Party: In the "Double Drabobo" level, before entering the boss room, approach the rightmost wall and walk up the pipes. 7. Thriller: Haven't found it. 8. Friendly Foes: In the "Urban Chabobo" level, wait during the "Finish Him" screen. Instructions will come up telling you how to perform a Friendship. 9. Another Castle: In one of the rooms with skeletons during the "Zeld Abobo" level, there is a crack in the southward wall. Destroy it and follow the path to find Toad from Super Mario Bros. 10. Kill the Messenger: In the "Zeld Abobo" level, when you reach Mr. Informer (the man who tells you the Old Man's weakness), stab him. 11. Sneaky: In the "Zeld Abobo" level, enter the Old Man's room without killing Aquamentus. 12. No Filming: In the "Pro Wrabobo" level, while you're outside the ring during the battle with the Amazon, attack the cameraman. 13. Bloodsport: In the "Pro Wrabobo" level, while you're in the ring during the battle with the Amazon, attack the referee. 14. Surf's Up: In the "Pro Wrabobo" level, at the beginning of the Balloon Fight sequence, Thrilla Gorilla will surf by. Attack him to get the medal. 15. Jason Lives: Haven't found it. 16. Fire Bad!: Haven't found it. 17. Double Trouble: During the "Contra Abobo" level, while in normal gameplay, press Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right. The Two-Player mode should appear. 18. Thanks Doc: In the "Punch Abobo" level, there's a secret health recovery just like in the original Punch-Out!!

Glad to see people getting exciting right before the release. I gotta say, I'm pretty excited knowing it's so close to being ready.

Yep, it's all done straight in Flash using AS. It's definitely pushed the limits of what Flash is capable of and takes forever to compile at this point.

Heheh, glad you like the countdown clock. Feels surreal to have a date finally set after all these years. I can't believe it's this close to coming out.

I'll probably put it up on I-Mockery after the holidays. The homepage already links to the Abobo site as it is and I have a lot of Xmas stuff on there currently. Don't want to over-clutter the homepage atm.

Nope, not that I'm aware of. Consider how many years it's been in development, how a custom arcade cabinet was built for it and exhibited at various conventions, how we have a full trailer for it, how there's a custom web site for it, how there's a twitter account and facebook fan page for it, and how it's been featured on virtually every gaming site out there.

This is a love letter to the glory days of 8-bit NES games and is meant to be the wet dream of anybody who grew up on those games or simply likes them.

On top of all that, we're giving a free spin-off game about Abobo's son, Aboboy, to anybody who has been nice enough to donate to the game.

We've had no boss pressuring us for a release all these years, no worries about getting it approved by ratings boards... it's all been on our terms and I think people can see the fun we've had making it all this time. It's that kind of stuff that (hopefully) shows on things like the trailer 'n all, and I think that's what has people so excited.

We're trying to give people a retro gaming experience that they will never forget for the rest of their lives, and they're getting it for free. If that's not worth a little hype, I don't know what is. ;)
