Game Overview

Step into the ring with Sumou Fighter - Toukaidou Basho, a hidden gem for the Game Boy that packs all the thunderous action of sumo wrestling into your pocket! This Japan-exclusive title lets you experience the raw intensity of the dohyo (sumo ring) as you battle rival wrestlers with strategic shoves, dodges, and well-timed strikes.
