Play TagTeam Wrestling Online

Game Overview

TagTeam Wrestling on NES is this weird little gem where you pick one of two tag teams—either the Strong Bads (yep, that Strong Bad) or the Ricky Fighters—and duke it out in some seriously old-school wrestling action. The grappling system’s kinda odd at first: you lock up with an opponent, then frantically scroll through a menu to pick moves like suplexes or dropkicks before they counter you. It’s clunky, but weirdly tense once you get the hang of it.

Each wrestler has one special move they can only use against their rival, which adds a bit of drama to matches. The single-player mode’s just a straight-up tournament climb, no story or anything, but the pixelated crowd noises and over-the-top victory animations give it charm. Definitely feels like a product of its time—limited moves, janky sprites—but if you’re into retro wrestling or Homestar Runner’s brand of nonsense, it’s a fun curiosity.
