This has to be one of the more awesomely crap items that I’ve seen on this site in quite some time, the irony being the last thing I saw that rates as high as this is one of those old school Tiger handheld games from more than 20 years ago which are still better games than anything that I can get on this”smart” phone that I’m using to visit this website and post this comment (keypads work so much better for guys like me because A: I learned how to use a mobile phone with a physical keypad and B: having to clean the fingerprints off these damn smartphone screens is causing me to buy way more lens cleaner of which I was already buying quite a lot having been wearing glasses since 1992)
That depends on my ability to find them. I think, from memory, it worked like Top Trumps. The cards were dealt face down, and you’d turn them over.
If I, as Hogan, had a clothesline, it would only be worth 3 out of 10. My friend playing as Earthquake may have a powerslam, which was a seven, so he’d win that exchange. If he had a ‘pin’ card he could they play it, and I’d have three turns of the card to locate a ‘kick out’, or I was beaten.
I reserve the right to be wrong about all of that!
I have the Jake Roberts vs. Ted Dibiase set (There was also a Warrior vs. Mr. Perfect, but damn if you can find one on eBay). It’s basically a watered down game of War, but not really… lol. You play a card, the other player tries to top it, if they can’t, you play a pin card, etc. etc. It’s not awful, but there’s not exactly a ton of strategy, either.
so its like Pokemon before it came about?
Gotta Pin ‘Em All!
The first one to get 22 wins.
“Alright, brother, I’ll see your two bacon cheeseburgers and raise you a syringe of Dianabol. Whatcha gonna do now?”

I remember these – I owned them! There was a series of them made. Ultimate Warrior vs Jake Roberts was another pack.
I may even still have them somewhere.
Care to share the rules with us?

This item came from the same company that gave us the Karate Fighters, the same Karate Fighters that sponsored three consecutive Survivor Series PPVs
I bet the game is a lot more fun than Karate Fighters though (at least I hope so!).

Looks pretty bad…5.5 out of 10 indicates some pretty generic crap….but it is rared higher then the VCR game was…

Did they come with a free “Get Well Huck Hogan” bracelet?
