Look guys, I'm a grown man, but I'm okay admitting that back in the day I used to watch myself some serious WWF. I used to love Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant and Sgt. Slaughter, Jimmy Superfly Snooker. All those guys loved it. It was the best era in wrestling, if you ask me. By far, no doubt. But there was a great game also that came out at that time period, 1991. It was the arcade hit WrestleFest, right? WWF's WrestleFest. It was WWF at the time. Well, there's never been an official sequel to that, but there's been planned for a while now this sequel called Retro Mania Wrestling. Well, the reason why I say that, most of you already know about that, but what is so freaking cool is that that game is coming to the II Arcade. So if you already bought an II Arcade and it's coming as part of the Kickstarter, then you're going to be able to buy this game on their App Store. So they're adding an additional game to the App Store, and it's Retro Mania Wrestling. So if this fires you up, you already have an iArcade, then you're pretty stoked. And if you're not getting one, maybe you're going to get one because of that. I don't know. But, dude, that's some pretty cool stuff. So anyway, so if you already are someone that picked up an iArcade and you're waiting for it on launch day, when you get that thing you be able to actually go download this game off the iArcade store So pretty damn cool So anyways guys that all I have It been an announcement There be an official press release at some point today but I just thought that pretty neat You know, Zhang and the iArcade team continue to add titles to this platform, which keeps making it better, so pretty damn cool.
