Description

Kinnikuman: Kinnikusei Oui Soudatsusen is set during the Scramble for the Throne timeline of the Kinnikuman manga where Kinnikuman is being thwarted from taking the throne.

The game consists of four stages, Stages one, two, and four are side-scrolling action games made up of four sections. At the end of each section is a boss fight. After all the sections of a stage are complete a one-on-one wrestling match then takes place. The third stage consists of a wrestling match only.

During these stages, players can switch between five fighters; Robin Mask, The Teriman, Ramen Man, Wars Man, and Neptune Man. The fighters can take multiple hits, with each hit draining their energy bar. The fighters can attack enemies with kicks and punches. Enemies are typically defeated by one hit, but bosses and wrestling opponents need multiple hits to defeat.

Overview & History

Released by Bandai in 1987 exclusively for the Famicom Disk System, Kinnikuman: Kinnikusei Oui Soudatsusen adapts the legendary "Throne Succession Arc" of Yudetamago’s iconic manga. Capitalizing on the rewritable disk medium, the game brought sprawling, multi-tiered wrestling action into Japanese living rooms, pitting Suguru Kinniku against formidable impostors and evil Chojin like Kinnikuman Great and Mammothman to prove his royal birthright.

Gameplay Features & Mechanics

Unlike standard side-scrolling fighters, this title blends tactical top-down wrestling ring navigation with explosive cinematic grapple sequences. Players choose their wrestler and must whittle down opponents using standard punches, kicks, and rope-rebound attacks before executing devastating signature moves. Meter management is crucial; landing specific strikes builds your "Fight Power," allowing you to unleash iconic finishing maneuvers like the Kinniku Buster or the 5-Inch Suguru Driver. The game also features destructible environments, tag-team mechanics allowing players to switch partners mid-match, and unique stamina gauges that deplete based on damage taken and high-flying aerial fatigue.
