Game Overview

Step into the ring with Terao no Dosukoi Oozumou—a hidden gem on the NES that lets you experience the thunderous world of sumo wrestling like never before! This quirky, Japan-exclusive title throws you straight into the dohyō (that’s the sumo ring, by the way) as you grapple, shove, and outmaneuver rivals in fast-paced, physics-driven bouts. The controls are simple but deceptively deep—timing your charge just right or tricking your opponent into overcommitting feels incredibly satisfying.

What makes this game stand out? Its charmingly exaggerated animations and the sheer oomph of every clash—it’s sumo with a side of arcade flair. While it never got the international fame of River City Rampage or Pro Wrestling, Terao no Dosukoi Oozumou has a cult following for its authenticity and addictive local multiplayer. If you’ve ever wanted to live out your yokozuna dreams on an 8-bit console, this is your chance!
