WWE No Mercy - Nintendo 64 - The16BitPrick

[@the16bitprick36]

Hey everyone!!! I hope you all enjoy the video, would love to hear all your opinions on this game so please leave a comment.

[@jonbourgoin182]

6:32 if one company could fit the entirety of Resident Evil 2 on an N64 cartridge then I don't buy any excuse as to how AKI couldn't fit full ring entrances into No Mercy. It's one of the very few things I dislike about the game. Most wrestling fans love to have full entrances. WrestleMania 2000 had them, and when the follow up game doesn't, it sucks, because you expect it to be there

[@kenrickkahn]

Exactly!! If Capcom can fit 2 damn disc of Resident Evil 2 on a single N64 cartilage then what's AKI's excuses for not going the extra mile??

[@jonbourgoin182]

A nearly 30 minute video from The Prick is exactly what I need after a long day at work and to unwind for the weekend. Thanks buddy! I hope this one goes viral for you and gets you the attention you deserve, and that's the bottom line! Edit: wow I just checked and saw your WM2000 video got 62 thousand views! Good for you man. Hope it motivates you to keep going because I am a huge fan of your work. Thank you!

[@the16bitprick36]

Thanks a lot mate, always count on you when my videos drop. Yeah my past two before this done really well somehow. This not so much but im happy with it, i'll keep posting videos so dont worry. Loads more wrestling to come!

[@Gallusinsky]

Shithot game every aspect of it was just fun! Would actually buy a N64 for No Mercy alone and play it the authentic way

[@the16bitprick36]

Do it!!!

[@TheViper4Life]

That's what I did about a month ago. Bought an N64 that came bundled with all 4 AKI games, but No Mercy has seen the most use so far...the game still holds up.

Little known gameplay tip. If you're in a Tag Team match you can pull off your Partners finisher by hitting A + B + L + R at the same time.

[@the16bitprick36]

Nice one! i wasnt aware of that

[@younglove3362]

I didn't know that. I just knew press AB and you steal your opponents finisher.

[@jonbourgoin182]

13:30 could not agree more my friend. I really miss when each console had their own exclusive wrestling games. It created competition to actually make their wrestling games the best and it gave you variety. For the last 10+ years we get one game across all platforms meaning there's no incentive to create a truly great wrestling game. We were spoiled with choices back then...I really miss that.

[@the16bitprick36]

Exactly!! no competition means theres no need to push the boundaries, companies can completely play it safe that way, would explain why we have had nothing but crap for a long time now.

[@younglove3362]

Nope, there were bad games back then too. The only good games were War zone and attitude who competition with world tour and revenge. Then they did the whole trade where the wwf came out with wrestlemania 2000 and no mercy and I forgot what the other WCW games were. Those were the only good games. The WCW back stage brawl and other games that weren't Smackdown were bad.

You should try WCW Mayhem. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. It's on n64 and ps1.

[@the16bitprick36]

I'll cover the WCW games some day mate, dont worry!

I have both Mayham for ps1 and N64. The PS1 version is better. For WCW PS1 games Mayham and WCW vs the world are excellent.

@@the16bitprick36 Thank you for the reply, in my opinion you have to be someone who has witnessed attitude Era as it happened to appreciate this game.

Talk about the cage match glitch where if your opponent gets to the top of the cage, no amount of cage shaking will Make them drop, but if you are in the same spot you will be dropped if the opponent breathes on the cage

[@younglove3362]

Yeah, that was a flaw and why I didn't bother playing it, even though I could easily beat them just by doing my special twice and then the second time I get on special, perform it then run while still on special, it was just a bummer because it removed some of the realistic of it and was a cheap advantage of giving the computer. I hate when game creators make them like this.

[@smudgey5000]

British Bulldog was technically in 2000 as well. His attire and face are in the game so he can be created very faithfully. You can also create Johnny Ace and kinda the road warriors but the face textures for them didnt make it.

[@younglove3362]

I created Sti. The face pain and the scorpion was missing but being dressed in black with a hat made up for it. And I utilized him way better than WWe did. There he was a top tier wrestler and brawler that gave the Rock and Triple H a run for their money 💰.

[@PontFlair]

So, wait. The Road Warriors R.I.P could be created in WM 2000, OR, they could be created on No Mercy? I'm confused, please clear it up. Were both Hawk and Animal's faces and attires available as well?

[@smudgey5000]

@@PontFlair WM2000. Attires and Facepaint are there. You just put the paint over a face and select the right hair and you wouldnt be able to really tell it's not actually their faces.

[@RedVoteRedemption]

No Mercy and the previous AKI games are the only reason I’m super hype for AEW Fight Forever.

[@Caolan114]

Smackdown 2 and No Mercy released In 2000 WWF fans would have to wait a full year for the next WWF game and after all that waiting they got Just Bring It WrestleMania X8 and Raw for the Xbox

[@the16bitprick36]

😂😂😂 well said

[@Jburneyjr]

The most consistent way to win handicap matches are to start off with the A hold A button attack. Get the opponent put the ring and into a submission as soon as possible. They won't kick their buddy put until you get them into blue and/or a few second into the hold regardless of difficulty. Then work on their buddy the same way to slow them down and just decide who you want to lose from there

[@PontFlair]

23:02 Although DOR 1&2 is Yukes branded, don't be misled, this uses the AKI Engine. So does Wrestle Kingdom 1&2.

[@EvanNixonType4]

GREAT video mate~

[@the16bitprick36]

Thanks very much man

[@mac692]

For handicap matches in ring, you have to spam top rope moves vs 2 standing opponents. That takes one out and you can fight fair with the other. Also continuously throwing them out the ring For handicaps in the back, spam weapon throwing or running weapon swings

[@the16bitprick36]

It just isnt fun though is it?

[@younglove3362]

The first time I used to win those matches because I used to play with the difficulty setting on hard. So two normal ai fighters was tough but able. When I touched the game later on when I use a ps3 controller on the computer, that's when it became hard. I used to run outside an wait until their special went back to green and attack them both with cheap moves carefully until I built up enough energy to get on special. Then wipe the floor with them both. This way took long, but patience is a virtue. And if you're calculated enough, you could beat them.

[@ProWrestlingFan1995]

Holy hell! I apologize for being late on this one, this one must have missed my sub box although I have ALL Notifications on for your channel… damn KZbin lol. Anyways fantastic review man, as great as this game is I’ve always liked WM00 a tad bit more.

[@PontFlair]

9:54 You could drag your opponents on Smackdown-HCTP, I'm positive. Not sure about AKI games previously nor which SD dragging debuted, to be fair. Awesome feature though.

[@jacobroes8908]

Cheese... the cheese my dude Lol but great video, if you check out the mods Feel the Bang is amazing

[@mistyknightsbionicarm]

Aki put out a game earlier in 2000 in Japan virtual pro wrestling 2 that I always felt was miles ahead of no mercy. It has a much different feel and vibe. Doesn't have the updates from no mercy but I find it more polished and expansive. Should give that one a go too.

[@the16bitprick36]

Definatly a series ive been wanting to look into, never heard a bad thing said about it.

[@PontFlair]

The thing I love that NM had but WM 2000 didn't, is the variety of rope colors. All red, all blue, all black. That's awesome for a person like me who needs that nonsense LOL

[@carlgale7571]

With the Undertaker’s theme, you can choose a different one for him under the CAW Edit, as there is a Original song to choose that loosely sounds like his American Badass theme, odd why they didn’t set it as standard for him though

[@the16bitprick36]

A bit of a kick in the baws if im honest, i tend to like my games being right down to the T if possible.

[@jonathanpeters5027]

Smackdown 2 also used the Raw Is War theme.

[@HellaDepraved]

So glad you did this. This is, imo, the best wrestling game ever. Cannot wait for AEW Fight Forever. The mod community for this has done great things, except the modded moves often look insanely wacky because they have to use movements already in the game.

Are we surprised by this? It's been 15 years and they still never learn from their old good games 🎮.

[@TheViper4Life]

Keep in mind Fight Forever isn't going to be a yearly release. AEW already said they plan to keep supporting it with new content for years to come (as long as it's not a total flop). It'll basically be a live service game that will change with time, and a Community Creations is something at the top of their list to implement eventually. They're trying to capture that old school wrestling game market first.

[@jaysilva5854]

The closest we got to this was Def Jam Vendetta. Aki was supposed to do one more WCW game but after the sale EA bought AKI and decided why not have rappers kick each other's butt in the ring. Vendetta was a solid game.
