Yeah although the same thing was in World Tour and VPW64 … so if it is a mistake, it’s odd that they didn’t rectify it for Revenge. I tend to think it’s an error… but I suspect we’ll never know for sure…

#AKIdidyouknow (Part 3 in the series on Pinfall Timer formulas) It's a case of evolution rather than revolution for WCW/nWo Revenge. The only change from World Tour and VPW64 is that button tapping is marginally more effective for kicking out in Revenge.

#AKIdidyouknow Following on from yesterday's post... for the first evolution of the Pinfall calculation, AKI upped the complexity of the formula and greatly increased the likelihood of 2-counts. Note also the small change between WCW vs nWo World Tour and Virtual Pro-Wrestling 64...

#AKIdidyouknow AKI tweaked the various gameplay formulas as the series progressed. For example, the Pinfall calculation became more complex and nuanced as the years went by. The simplest formula was found in Virtual Pro-Wrestling and WCW vs The World on PlayStation...

Interesting gameplay mechanic in Human's HAL Wrestling / Puroresu (1990) on GameBoy - there are 2 moves that are only possible when your own stamina is very low: Akira Maeda's wheel kick and Inoki's Enzuigiri. I don't think this mechanic was in any of the mainline Fire Pro games?

Ha - was just messing around, considering if it was possible. Thought I’d set everything to private!
