Movie Trading Company said they won't get it in until tomorrow as well. The clerk said it would retail for $12.99 but she said it's usually wrong. We'll see how things go when I get that phone call.

So is this a 3D game? Any good?

Sounds like it might be fun to have around for 20 dollars (If its anything like the N64 AKI ones anyway.)

It's the best series after the AKI series.

It's 2D, there are 350 Wrestlers in the game, and you have 500 Slots to create. Almost every move you want is in the game, and the best part of the game are 4 VS 4 matches, which you can set to Tornado Elimination style. :D

It ships next week. I can't wait.

If it's half as good as Fire Pro D I will be happy.

Way better than D. Got the import FPR in 2005 and still playing it heavily.
Today was the "ship date". Here is a press release from Agetec
http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=30591

I ordered 6 copies. Some of my friends who always hating me for having the greatest import wrestling titles are getting some early xmas gifts.

No, its not.

Unless they simplified it for gaijin/newcomers, have fun with the bizarre new Edit mode.

FirePro R sucks. If you've got D and like it alot, you're better off.

What did they add to edit mode in your opinion thats so bizarre?
I love D as much as the next guy, I ran an online FPD efed for almost a year.
R added plenty since D to make it a worthy upgrade.

/\ Actually you can create 500 edits. of the 327 or so default on the roster you can only edit one psychical appearance per wrestler. Still 500 is more than enough.

Yeah, I worded that wrong. I meant to say up to 827 total wrestlers. Still, 500 is indeed a lot! You won't believe how many caws is on youtube!

If by greatest you mean worst then you'd be right.

Now ebgames.com is saying

Pre-Release
Ships 11/23/07

The most ironic part of this comment is that Fire Prowrestling is--and always has been--the antithesis to the button-mashing games which came before it. Pro Wrestling for NES, the WWF games for SNES/Genesis, hell, even Neo-Geo's 3 Count Bout all fall into that category. :eek_2: In any case, if anyone's still confused as to why Fire Prowrestling is so popular, I'd have to say that it starts with the simple, technical gameplay and moves-on from there.

Truthfully, I didn't find out about R until a mere three months ago. My friend and I have been trying to download the import but there have been many complications. At least at this time, I can look around and find out any more info before hand. I have SO many customization options I want to do, i'm looking forward to this!

You can't deny how cool the customization is in this video!!
