This is a nice touch in the game, but adds very little to the overall gaming experience. The game comes with a rather nifty little theme tune tweeting out of the speaker. Unfortunately this song continues on every match, which starts to wear on after a while. I m not sure if each wrestler has a theme tune like they do in the WWF, but it would have been good to at least make a different song for every competitor. What there is of the music is good, it s just a shame there is so little of it.
Sound effects are few and far between, but they fit the game well.
There are the standard oofs and other assorted noises you would associate with beatings, and a strange whistling sound that comes with leaping off the turnbuckle. Despite a number of different options available to the gamer, they are all really much of a muchness, except the versus mode. There is no real incentive to play the game through over and over or with different characters, so it comes down to playing through a few times and then leaving the cart unused. Still, the versus mode is included when quite a few games today leave it out, which is where the real replay value lies. As long as you can con a friend who has a Gameboy into buying the game, you might be playing this for a while.
