If you're into old-school Japanese wrestling games, Toukon Road - Brave Spirits on N64 is one of those hidden gems. The roster’s stacked with classic Shin Nihon Pro Wrestling faces, and yeah, the graphics are blocky by today’s standards, but the moves feel weighty—landing a lariat actually hurts, you know?
First thing you’ll notice? The controls are simple but deep. Grapples, counters, and flashy finishers all flow together once you get the timing down. Some wrestlers play totally different—like, the high-flyers actually feel light and quick, while the heavyweights lumber around but hit like trucks. And the crowd goes nuts when you pull off a big move, which never gets old.
It’s got that classic N64 jank in the best way—clipping through the ropes sometimes, commentary that makes zero sense—but that’s part of the charm. If you’ve ever wanted to suplex someone through a table in pixelated 3D, this is your game.
