Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: What is VPW?
A:VPW is the Japanese version of THQ's WCW/nWo World Tour.

Q:Where can I get a copy?
A:www.therage.com, www.flashbackinc.com or maybe even www.ebay.com

Q:Why should I get a copy?
A:Because this game has 99 playable wrestlers. Plus added moves, like fire blowing, mist spraying, the scoop bomb, corkscrew elbow, 450 splash, Sky Twister press, ETC. Plus a referee and a better Wrestler Edit mode.

Q:How much?
A:I got mine for $35. But expect anywhere from $40-$65

Q:Do I need to do anything to my Domestic 64 to play it?
A:Yes. You have several options.
1)Cut out the grooves in your current N64
2)Buy a converter
3)Use a Gameshark as a Converter
4)Cut out the grooves in the Cartridge

Q:I don't speak or read Japanese. Can I still play it?
A:YES!!!! I don't read a single bit of Japanese, and only speak a little. But gameplay is the same as World Tour, and plus you can change all the names to English.

Side note: Japanese wrestlers don't have 'finishers' as American wrestlers do. They have signature moves they do, which are 'more likely' to result in a win. So keep this in mind when playing.

Finishers
Part One: Basics
Most finishers are pulled off by what I call a "Front Special" However, they can by executed other ways. See the "Specials guide" below.

Front Special: Do a strong grapple and tap the joystick while facing your opponent
Back Special: Do a strong grapple and tap the joystick while facing opponents back, or do a strong grapple and press R and tap joystick
Top rope special: Climb top rope while wrestler is on special.

Notes:
Chris Benoit and Eddy Guerrero's former aliases are in the game. Pegasus kid, and Black Tiger
Keiji Mutoh likes to use a Dragonscrew legwhip to set up his Figure 4 finisher.
Great Muta's mist is more of a taunt, than a move, although is used to blind opponents too. His finisher is his moonsualt.
