Ebay but its japanese and you have to mod your PS2 with a flip top. The whole deal will probably run around 80 bucks. The last Fire Pro out was Fire pro Returns for the PS2 and a DS one should come out eventually.

Quote:| The Game Boy versions aren't bad. The graphics are the level of Super Fire Pro Wrestling X Premium on SNES, but the game play is consistent with the whole series. |

Graphically, it's actually closer to Fire Pro G on the PSX.

The DS one was canceled long ago. FPR is coming stateside, though.

Actually the DS version was only ever a rumor.
I spent about 50 on FPR with a flip top, but yes, FPR is being translated and brought stateside by the year's end.

I loved Vader in WCW...but in WWF...wow...what a fall from grace...this was the big man that dominated Japan...wrestler Stan Hansen til his eye was out of the socket...destroyed everyone in WCW (except Simmons...don't get me started...lol...) but goes to WWF and become Mankinds partner?...what the hell...
Best match for him I thought...when Flair left WWF, returned to WCW...they did a big title vs retirement match...I still have the match...Flair won in what must be described as a shoot style match...post match interview...Flair missed a tooth...face all swollen...lol...those were the days...stiff was stiff

Vader got ruined in the WWF because his style rubbed people the wrong way, specifically Shawn Michaels. He instantly got better when he got over to All Japan Pro Wrestling.
And that Flair/Vader match sucked because of the ending. All that buildup for such a crappy ending.

Although the ending...roll up...was a bit of a stretch, especially since Vader could have easily kicked out, i think it was still a great way to end the feud...flair coming back after the absence...to win with the career on the line and all...granted they could have had a better ending (perhaps the horsemen running in).

Personally, I would have figured Flair's leg work would have lead to a figure four. I wasn't against Vader losing, for the record, but they didn't have to have the craptastic ending.

I totally agree with you...he spent the better part of the match workingvader's legs...for what, to roll him up...lol...I'll bet vader said no to a submission ending....

Vader is the man, One of my favorites would be him vs Hansen back in 90

One of my favorite matches was Vader totally squashing El Gigante in Japan.
