Getting to Know Fire Pro Wrestling 2 - 2nd Bout

Fire Pro Wrestling 2 - 2nd Bout is a Japan-exclusive wrestling game for the NEC TurboGrafx-16, released in 1991 by Human Entertainment. It's the second entry in the Fire Pro series on the platform, known for its simulation-style approach to pro wrestling rather than arcade flash. This title never left Japan, so most players experience it through emulation today. Players control wrestlers in timed matches, focusing on grappling, strikes, and reversals. The core loop involves building up momentum through successful moves and then landing a finishing hold or pin. A match can be played against the AI or another player in versus mode. The game also includes a creation mode where you can edit wrestlers' appearances and move sets, though menus are entirely in Japanese. What makes this game worth playing is its depth compared to other wrestling games of the era. The Fire Pro series is celebrated for its realistic match pacing and the sheer number of moves available. If you enjoy wrestling simulations and don't mind navigating Japanese text, this is a hidden gem on the TurboGrafx-16 library.

How to play Fire Pro Wrestling 2 - 2nd Bout online

Getting started: When you boot the game, you'll see a Japanese title screen. Press Start to move to the main menu. The options are arranged vertically - the top option is usually "Single Match," followed by "VS Mode," "Option," and "Edit Wrestler." Choose a mode with the directional pad and confirm with the A button (X key).

In a match, move your wrestler with the D-pad and press the B button (S key) to strike or run. The Y button (Z key) is used for light grapples, while the X button (A key) executes heavy moves. You'll need to time your attacks and counters carefully - blocking is done by holding away from your opponent. To perform a grapple, get close and press Y or X depending on the move you want.

The edit mode lets you change wrestler names, appearances, and move sets. The menus here are all in Japanese, so you may need a translation guide or trial and error. Once your wrestler is set, jump into a match and experiment with different button combinations to discover suplexes, submissions, and pin attempts.
