Play WWF King of the Ring (Japan) Online
Pick your favorite 90s wrestler and mash buttons to pull off stiff suplexes in this clunky but oddly charming Game Boy brawler—the janky animations and muffled crowd noise are pure nostalgia.
WWF King of the Ring for the Game Boy came out in 1993, developed by Eastridge Technology and published by LJN. It was one of the many wrestling games on the system, trying to capture the spectacle of the WWF in a portable format. The roster included stars like Bret Hart and Yokozuna, though the small screen and limited hardware meant you had to use your imagination a bit.
You pick a wrestler and fight through a tournament bracket, facing opponents one after another. The controls are simple: punch, kick, grapple, and attempt special moves with specific button combinations. Matches take place in a single screen ring, and winning requires depleting your opponent's health or pinning them after a strong attack. The pacing is slow, the collision detection is sometimes unforgiving, and the AI can feel cheap on higher difficulties. It feels like a rough but earnest attempt to bring arcade-style wrestling action into your hands.
