Big Bang Pro Wrestling is a big fish in a small pond, as it doesn’t have much competition. So if you are looking for a trip down memory lane, this is a fun game. However, keep looking if you fancy a game that incorporates more modern wrestling game mechanics.

Critic reviews
- The simplistic nature of Big Bang Pro Wrestling by today’s standards makes for a refreshingly straightforward gameplay experience, with the main downside being that you’ll need to read the manual first -which isn’t all that much of a deal. Add to this that the actual port feels incredibly polished, which results in a Neo Geo Pocket title that you should definitely look into if you’re a wrestling fan.
- Big Bang Pro Wrestling looks great, and parts of it hold up really well, even 22 years after its initial release. Its gameplay is a somewhat odd mix of simple mechanics, which require a bit too precise of timing and positioning, but get some friends together who loved wrestling in the era it was originally made, and I’m confident you’ll have some fun.
- Big Bang Pro Wrestling offers a fantastic portable wrestling game experience that feels right at home on the Switch. There aren’t many 8-bit-style wrestling games on the platform, with only Pro Wrestling available via the Switch Online service and no Tecmo World Wrestling as of this writing. The gameplay feel is like those two games, but with more depth and personality.
