Zen-Nihon Pro Wrestling Jet is one of those old-school Game Boy wrestling games that somehow makes pixelated grapplers feel intense. You pick from a roster of Japanese wrestlers—some look like they stepped out of an 80s tournament, others are just wild caricatures—and then it’s all about timing those stiff punches and suplexes. The controls are simple, but landing a big move at the right moment still feels satisfying.
Matches are fast, chaotic, and a little janky in that classic handheld wrestling way. The crowd sprites barely move, but the ring announcer’s voice crackles through with this weirdly hype energy. If you’ve played Fire Pro or other retro wrestling games, you’ll recognize the vibe—it’s not deep, but it’s got charm. Just don’t expect smooth animations.
Honestly, half the fun is seeing how the Game Boy translates body slams into four colors. It’s a time capsule of early portable wrestling chaos.
