Zen-Nihon Pro Wres' - Sekai Saikyou Tag Super Nintendo
The second Super Famicom game NCS published based on the Zen-Nippon (All-Japan) Pro Wrestling circuit. This one focuses more on tag team matches, hence the subtitle.
Zen-Nippon Pro Wrestling Dash: Sekai Saikyou Tag ("All-Japan Pro Wrestling Dash: World's Strongest Tag Team") is a pro-wrestling game based on the All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW) circuit. It is the second of Masaya's series of Zen-Nippon adaptations, and uses the real names and likenesses of AJPW wrestling talent.
The game is less a full sequel but rather an enhanced edition of the original Zen-Nippon Pro Wrestling, which was released less than six months prior. It enhances the presentation, switches the roster of wrestlers around a bit and adds more modes, many focusing on tag team matches. The player can select between Tag Tournament, Tag Championship, Vs. (which allows for up to four human players to play simultaneously with a multi-tap peripheral), "Fatal" 4-Way Elimination (also four player, and is a mode which removes a player's wrestler once they have been pinned) and Training.
The game would be followed with one more Super Famicom sequel before NCS lost the license: Zen-Nippon Pro Wrestling 2: 3-4 Budokan. There is also the comical Zen-Nippon Pro Wrestling: Fight da Pon! spin-off. Developers Natsume would adapt Seika Saikyou Tag into a US-only game: Natsume Championship Wrestling.
