WCW/nWo Revenge was the sequel to WCW vs nWo World Tour on N64. Developed once again by AKI, the game added a lot of improvements over it's predecessor including updated character models, better graphics, new arenas, the edit mode (that was available in Virtual Pro Wrestling 64) and a ton of new wrestlers. nWo Hollywood, nWo Wolfpac, Raven's Flock, WCW and the Cruiserweight Division were all represented in the game, and players could take control of favourites such as Sting, Bret Hart, Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio, Scott Hall, Lex Luger and Hollywood Hogan.
Revenge would turn out to be the best ever video game released under the WCW license, and this video looks at everything that made it special.

[@mushroomsamba82]

Such an iconic game. Spent many a summer afternoon at my friend's house playing matches for hours.

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

The last WCW game. Nonthing happened after that.😂

[@younglove3362]

4 controllers with 1 great player, 2 decent players, and 1 weak player. One of the decent players would rage quit because of something the great player would do. Funny memories 😁

[@chikish]

I was a PlayStation kid until I played Revenge at a friend's house. This is the game that got me to ask for a N64 for Christmas in 1998. I played it from the moment midnight struck and I was allowed to open my presents, all through the night and pretty much the entire Christmas day. I could not believe the intro with Sting! I was 14 at the time and it was probably the greatest intro I had ever seen on any game up until that point. I still remember the exact moment I discovered by accident that you could steal your opponent's finisher. My friend and I were _literally_ screaming and hollering like we'd just discovered the cure for cancer LOL. Great memories.

[@lzagoonz]

man i used to love when my mates begged me to tell them how to steal opponents finisher 🤣

[@johnbrennan9617]

Growing up in Dublin, this game was my one and only exposure to WCW, and I absolutely adored this game. I sank hundreds of hours into it.

[@bradylewis1037]

Let's not forget how you could kick out of any pin by taunting. I was the only one in our group of guys who knew this trick, but I only used it with Raven so everyone thought he was indestructible.

[@derekfuiten204]

My cousin and me both knowing that trick made for some crazy long matches. 😆

[@Prezzy-Oxide]

Been on a mad binge of these AKI games recently. As a kid, I owned World Tour and Warzone. And despite being primarily a fan of WWF, I barely touched Warzone. I’ve introduced my son to these games on my old original hardware and over the years I’ve purchased them all. Revenge is something special. I’m currently playing the English patched VPW64 and VPW2 on RetroArch. I was still sat in my work clothes on Friday night til about 11:30pm. I’m a sucker for nostalgia.

[@tonymiller007]

I was a junior in highschool when this came out. Tons of us would gather at a friend's house and play this for hours, if not days and often for money.

[@HALBY400]

There's just something about this game that takes me back to childhood. I usually play it more than the superior No Mercy. I think it does such a great job of capturing the feel of WCW during its peak, in the middle of the biggest boom in wrestling history. This game is such a joy to play.

[@DoomRulz]

Just looking at the thumbnail is enough to replay the opening cinematic in my mind. This game was life ❤

[@godofwar7615]

Man..what a time to be alive played this game for hours back in the day so many memories

[@tonymcneill7779]

[@Smokey1419]

The roster, the aestetic, the music, and the memories makes Revenge my personal favorite of the 64 games.

[@robmason5799]

This game is my favorite as well. Just the legends on this roster. Also the tag teams on this wow Hart foundation, mega powers, Harlem heat, sting/luger, Steiner, outsiders, horseman, Alex/disco. Just so many.

[@jackmorgan3826]

I first played this game back in 2020 after i ordered this,WM2000,No Mercy and WCW Vs NWO World Tour and yeah really great game keep in mind i was born in 2002 but i have always seen this game on KZbin along with WWF No Mercy.

[@I_am_Kamelot]

You dont have to explain why is this your favourite game, the fact than Glacier is a selectable character speaks volumes.

[@dealt]

Circa '99 this was the go-to game for me and my high school pro wrestling buddy. No matter what we were doing, and regardless of what other new games we may have been playing, "play Revenge?" was always uttered to finish the day.

[@marccaselle8108]

I played this at friend's houses when it came out. The battle Royale mode was very fun. It as a whos who of wrestling back then. Sure it didn't have barry Horowitz or the Public enemy but it remains a great game to this day

[@mikeharless4596]

That end note is why RtW is so quintessential for me! Your hard work gives me relief from the daily grind of adulting and truly makes me feel like a child again. Best channel on KZbin!

[@bemindful3315]

This is the wrestling game I have the most fond memories with. I've always been super grateful that you chose to use music from the game in your videos because in some way it always brings me back to those good times when I hear those tunes. Also, it has in some small way made the game's legacy live on that much more. I can't even imagine how many hours myself, my brothers and my friends spent playing this game over the years. On the odd occasion I still end up busting it out with a friend of mine to this day for a good old fashioned 40 man battle royal. It often sees us making an alliance temporarily with one another only for one of us to suddenly turn on the other and go for an elimination attempt. Chaos in and out of the game. Revenge is such a timeless classic. Modern video games just don't make me feel the same way as they used to when I was younger.

[@durokthezenith4462]

I feel u wb i was big into this and and all the games made by wwf( wwe) and wcw. Im 37 and love ever wrestling game that camed out. Im glad to be a fan of wrestling as well as a wrestler when i was younger. I go back evey now and then and hook up the n64 and play these game.

[@RawJah]

I couldnt agree more with you, here. This, ladies and gentlethems is THE king of wrestling games for me personally. Back when I first got to play it, I had no N64. I was at my cousins place who had no console at all, but our parents decided to let us loan out a N64 from a videostore. We got Revenge and since I was a bit WCW Mark during that time, my mind was absolutely blown when I saw that roster and my head filled with all these dream-matches I wanted to do. One moment I remember very particularly. After the first bunch of them with my cousin I wanted to do a cruiserweight-match, I hadnt read the manual (who did?) and I through my cousin outside of the ring and I thought to myself (I was probably Rey or Juvi) "Hm, in reality they'd do a springboard move or suicide dive now. No clue if they are possible in the game." So I ran at the ropes and pushed the right button and bam - springboard move. I couldnt believe it. One thing I also remember that I never experienced afterwards in any game was, that you never could be certain if you finished your opponent with that last finisher you did. So many incredible WTF-Moments were created where you couldnt believe that you didnt get the 3-count after your move and with the opponent being so beaten down. Also, sure Nash and Hall arent in the same group per Roster-Menu, but you could just give Nash the red Outsiders attire, choose them both for a tag match and they'd come out with a tag-entrance that looked real enough to the Outsiders. Incredible. God, I love that game. Once I got home from that trip to my cousin I sold my SNES to buy a N64, a second controller and Revenge. I never bought another N64 game. It was all I needed. (Also you could just loan out games from videostores back then, but in the end I would always go back to playing Revenge.)

[@gonzalogca4907]

Thank you for this video. I was a huge WCW fan back then and I still remember going to the video game stores in my city every single day looking for this game. The day I finally got a copy was one of the happiest days of my whole life.

[@youtubebannedme4207]

War zone was the fist wrestling game i got for ps1 and i played that until my fingers were blistered whioe drinking cans of surge. Then attitude came out and i swear i played that game for most of my childhood. I still remeber how to use hbks super kick.. left, down, right, up, square, x. Good times.

[@COB1990]

I completely get what you mean about the power of nostalgia. WWF Attitude looking back, is really one of my most disliked WWF games from my childhood. However it holds such a strong place in my heart as me and my buddies used to do Lumberjack matches and simply spend the whole time fighting the Lumberjacks (or running away from them as one friend was appalling at the game!). Got to say I also get that same hit sometimes by jumping onto Pro Evolution Soccer 6, that game was and is still, streets ahead of most football games. Another excellent video man, hope you had a fantastic time at Mania!

[@rikersbeard6039]

The music from the intro video to this game has played in my head nonstop since 1998.

Will forever be my favorite THQ game of all times. World Tour set the tone, WrestleMania 2000 was greatness and No Mercy mastered the engine but Revenge was groundbreaking. So many memories and endless hours of burning out playing this. Still undefeated with Psicosis at Bash at the Beach! Never had more fun with a wrestling game and that includes HCTP! Honestly wish Fight Forever would've been half as good.

[@Joe_Parmesan]

'Groundbreaking' is such a great way to describe this game, because it was exactly that. In terms of atmosphere, especially with regards to the music and the various arenas, this game does it best.

[@Zluyto]

This post made me spit coffee all over my phone! Absolutely brilliant!

[@SW1FFLEE]

This video best sums up why WCW/nWo Revenge is held in higher regard than games that are objectively better like Wrestlemania 2000. It was the best wrestling game up to that point, released at a time when WCW was on fire, and the roster had everyone you could ever want to see in a ring. The roster being divided into factions is something that I never see get brought up as a big deal, but I remember my friends and I marking out hard over being able to go all nWo wolfpac.

[@LivingVicariouslyHD]

Thank you for remaking this video and really doing a great job illustrating why WCW/nWo Revenge was such a soft spot for many of us who grew up in this era playing games with friends. I am an old school Nintendo guy, but the one console where my favorite game isn't a 1st party Nintendo game is N64 - Revenge is that game for me. When this game was new, it was something else. I remember being Juvi in the battle royale mode and how exciting it felt to not only to play as him, but to see the roster depth and alt attires everyone had as they came out. The game kept impressing over and over again. I only wish we got N64 style sound font themes for the wrestlers. That would be the icing on the cake, along with maybe like a hidden Saturday Night arena or unlocking manager selection mode after getting however many high scores. Little things like that would've added more reason to play the game solo so you could show your buddies the cool extra stuff. But, as you stated, the game is fun enough to go back to and play to this very day. It captures the height of WCW before the fall, and I fully agree - it is a time capsule of a simpler time.

[@benvanasdale6273]

I share your enthusiasm for this particular wrestling game. When I had my n64 as a kid, the only two wrestling games I ever bought with my allowance money were WWF War Zone and then WCW/NWO Revenge. I played World Tour over and over at a friend's house, and when I saw Revenge in the store I had to have it. Despite the lack of modes, I played it so, so much.... it almost never left the console for a good long period of time. It's my favorite wrestling game of all time, and yes, I let the intro play almost every single time lol

[@A-1-Sawce]

I was in high school when this came out and Holy hell my friends Ana i spent probably hundreds of hours playing it. The music is forever burned into my brain.

[@donateloleonardo]

I remember my friends and I used to change the wrestlers names around for our own enjoyment. My personal favorite - "Rock Alaska Book" (aka DDP) 😂

[@buckingham412]

@@robgesualdi206 Thanks for asking! logically, as a kid who didn't know about wrestling, I was more interested in the visually impressive ones, those who looked like superheroes, so I remember picking Ultimo Dragon a lot, Rey Mysterio, La Parka, Sting... Some were brought to my attention by my friends who watched the program, like Hogan and Goldberg. I couldn't really grasp the difference between all the wrestlers with more generic gear, but there's on that caught my attention for some reason, that was Jeff Jarrett lollll I don't know if it was the name or the haircut or the guitar, maybe all three, but he was a favorite of mine.

[@Jigardo]

12:04 Man, Macho Man did DDP dirty, no selling the diamond cutter like that

What let Revenge down was that the finishers were massively underpowered. I lost count of how many times my opponent completely no-sold the Diamond Cutter, Buff Blockbuster, Jacknife Powerbomb and many others, getting up quicker than my sprite doing the actual move.

Just want to say I loved your video and your feelings of nostalgia for this game are shared by many. The way you put it -- a little "time machine" inside a cartridge is perfect. I still pop it in now and then and get taken back to a world when I was 8 years old, playing with my older brother. I love this game and I still believe if a company like AEW or WWE was able to perfectly transport the gameplay into something with a modern roster, it would still hold up very well.

me too. I stopped watching wrestling in 94 then when Revenge came out I saw the intro video in a games store and was intrigued why pretty much the entire wwf roster of the early nineties had jumped over to wcw, which back then was a cheap Temu version of WWF. After playing Revenge non stop for weeks I turned TNT on to watch some WCW. The episode... the finger poke of doom.

1998: what a time to be a wrestling fan! I remember a much younger me back in NZ playing WWF Warzone to death, than heading to a friends place who had an N64 and playing Battle Royals for hours. All while on tv Austin v McMahon played out, and WCW was still firing on all (or most) cylinders. Great times.

[@timomajere]

I love how you're moving OUT of the chronology and into topics. Thank you for your diligence. Could I make a small request and would you be interested in making a video on the 'ART of the Manager' in professional wrestling? I really feel that it is the sadly forgotten art that modern wrestling seriously needs to reconsider again. It was much MUCH more than a stoolie interferer in matches. For the record, Paul Heyman IS still managing but his role is severely diminished and left to backstage and promos mostly. The fact HE is so well respected and likes by both sides of the wrestling spectrum prove that managers STILL has more to offer the world today. Remember these gems? Scary/Sensational Sherri Slick Bobby Heenan Mr.Fuji. Even Harvey Whippleman and Sapphire count. Those are merely ones I remembered from my days growing up and were a major factor in wrestling.

As for someone who was not born during the Monday night War and only began playing this game just two years ago, I gave me glimpse into what WCW was in the past. This game, No Mercy, VPW2 And WM2000 are some of my favorite N64 wrestling games I've played and Revenge is undoubtedly The definite WCW video game of all time

Revenge was the first game I actually had friends come over just to play 4player mode. So many great memories. I still play No Mercy to this day

[@mazii7400]

Revenge was my second ever pro wrestling game behind HCTP but god damn I loved this game. Seriously underappreciated

[@liammc433]

Me and my cousin used to play this and Goldeneye all the time! Used to make our own storylines and then play them out in the game. So many weekends of fun.

Finally! I've been waiting over here in Canada all morning for today's video bud! WCW/NWO Revenge. Throw in Star Fox, Golden Eye and a big bag of weed and you pretty much have my 1997/98.

Thunder has a much bigger roster, especially once everything is unlocked. Not a better game, but it has basically everyone.

[@christzala1594]

Not to mention all 12 ppv arenas from 1998 including the 2 Thunder rings. As much hate the game gets, it has it's charms.

I was in the 8th grade when this game came out, me & my friends would stay up until 2 in the morning playing this 😂😂

Me too man!!! Great times!!!

[@1dayatatime..180]

Me too, bro!! Man, good times

I used to have a scrapbook which i used to book my own wrestling cards with this game. I loved it so much and kicking out and putting new members into the nwo or wolfpac was super fun. Good times!
