Bret and Shawn took this so seriously because they knew to alot of people this would be their introduction to the WWF. This game is what got me watching wrestling around this time and all of my friends were obsessed with this game. Great stuff!
The coolest thing about In Your House, I could take my saturn disc, put it in a CD player, and listen to wrestlers themes while playing with my rasslin toys
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries 9:40 Jajajajajajaja, Hi Patman, until now I realized that you had made a video about a video game that I loved in my childhood, you never cease to amaze us Patman, right now I am going to watch and enjoy this video, thanks once again PatmanQC.
I saw this notification and immediately watched it one of my favorite games ever and the fact that Undertaker demanded Jack Daniels makes me love him even more he’s the Greatest big man ever and he’s still going 2 decades later
I remember hearing a rumor that you needed to beat world champion mode and intercontinental champion mode with each wrestler and then you could unlock Adam Bomb. One thing you didn't mention was the arcade game had rankings and a login like NBA Jam did. So, I spent hours at the arcade with my login trying to beat each mode with all the wrestlers, I remember being at the very last match and finishing it and just so let down he did not show up... I felt like I had failed 😞
This is easily in my all time top 3 favorite games. I still play it to this day. It's just sad Midway didn't continue this and I wish there were more wrestlers in the roster. Each character's unique move sets and styles make this so much fun. Thank you for the video!
I just really enjoy Midway arcade games. They had a certain chaotic nature to their games that I don't think has ever truly been replicated. Whenever you throw some quarters into a midway arcade cabinet you're in for some pure sensory overload many modern games wish they could replicate! Even their sports games had a certain insanity to them! Speaking of, I'd love to see a video on Smash TV in the near future. Also, I don't know if anyone remembers it but The Grid was an excellent multi-player game in the spirit of Smash TV and even had the announcer guy from it! I've only played it once ever and apparently it's almost impossible to emulate! sad...
An employee at my work went home sick this morning, with a sore throat, dizziness, and a fever. Pretty scary stuff, I bet that there's a lot more people with the virus, than only the ones tested, confirmed and reported about. They also shut down our local school district until further notice. This is Salt Lake City, Utah, btw, if you want to look it up.
I just discovered your channel a few days ago and I’ve been binge watching ever since. I just wanted to say you have some awesome content that brings back some awesome memories.
Another great video deep diving into what has progressively become a rather obscure entry in the pantheon of wrestling themed video games. Excellent to enjoy with the morning coffee. Keep up the great work
This is one of my favorite arcade game of all times! Thanks for this amazing video about it Pat. Sal DiVita confirmed that Adam Bomb is in the game but sadly never divulged how to obtain it.
He has said in interviews that the character was nowhere near complete so it doesn't even pay to try to find it. I would still love to see the sprites for it though
Just love arcade games and your channel for all the best arcade reviews and to see what the cabinets for the games look like if people haven't see them or found them in arcade seaside resorts or if you'll lucky enough to have a local arcade place.
You do a great job on these videos. Very thorough. To be honest, I had forgotten about this game completely, but didn't play it much in the arcade or on Playstation, so it makes some sense that it had faded into the ether.
WWF WrestleMnia: The Arcade Game needs to be remade under the name "WWE WrestleMania: The Arcade Game" with an updated roster, online play, downloadable content, no freeze-ups, a create-a-wrestler option, a create-a-move-set option and the ability to be compatible with arcade sticks.
I absolutely loved this game as a kid (Playstation)...it's just something about real actors like in this game/MK trilogy that I love so much. Graphics have come a long way but I still prefer this.
9:40 Jajajajajajaja, Hi Patman, until now I realized that you had made a video about a video game that I loved in my childhood, you never cease to amaze us Patman, right now I am going to watch and enjoy this video, thanks once again PatmanQC.
Me and my cousin once played this game from 10pm until 6am when we were in our teens, we kept laughing all night long not knowing why it was so hilarious 😂 good times.
I always suffer from a rather sad twinge when I watch 80s and 90s era wrestling content, due to the fact so many of my childhood heroes never made it to my age 😔 They really did put everything on the line to entertain us, and sadly the industry chewed them up and spat them out. Anyway, to be less maudlin, may I just congratulate Patman on yet another damn fine retrospective! Oooooh Yeaaaaaah!!!!
I just discovered this channel and subscribed. You, sir, are incredible. Great information. You speak clearly without any of that god awful vocal fry nonsense. This channel is great and takes me down memory lane!!!.
Pat, I’m so glad you covered this game! It doesn’t get the love it should it the wrestling game community. I must have played a week’s worth of hours on this game. While Wrestlefest remains my favorite wrestling arcade game, I loved the speed and silliness of this one. Glad you mentioned the Icon, Sal Davita too! These games informed my artwork in a really powerful way and everytime I draw a wrestling ring, I pull from my visual mental index of video games for reference.
Great video! I loved this game. I remember playing it in the arcade and picking it up on PS1(I think, I know I rented it a few times at least) . It was one of the first games I bought when i got back into PS1 collecting around 2010-11. The I stumbled upon In Your House at a local Disc Replay for like 5 bucks CIB so I picked it up. Yeah, its flawed, but I did enjoy the kinda oddball roster. Gotta love that they put "The Hart Dungeon" as a level.
This is hilarious. Just last night I was watching some replay vids of this game and idly wondered to myself if you might cover it someday, and lo and behold, here it is. And as always, you did an awesome job with the vid. Not one of my most-played games, but it was always a good one to just drop a few quarters into it and have some fun seeing how far I could get. “Quiet pjw, I’m trying to watch this!” Sorry Jerry. Carry on!
LOL, I had to be really good at this game being able to beat it on the most difficult level with only one $0.25. . Thanks for the nice words, glad you enjoyed it
This was the precursor to the In Your House game. It was an insane game with fatalities and stuff. It was nuts. I loved these games. They were so over the top with the combos and the graphics.
Great video:) I have this pcb, it's such a great game, thanks for the info and the review. Btw this pcb can be converted to UMK3 by the way of a rom swap.
I loved this game when it came out on the Genesis. I never played the arcade machine but it looks amazing. I just recently bought the in your house one on the ps1. I can't wait to try it out. Awesome job with the vid! 👍
When I worked as an arcade tech at Chuck E Cheese's, we got this game straight from the factory. The game is the reason The Undertaker is and always will be my favorite wrestler. I was the only one that knew how to do Taker's full chain combo and his fatality.
Stay safe buddy! Good hand hygiene and catching those coughs and sneezes in a handkerchief is key! Great excuse for catching up on YT and boxsets though 😁
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries The only part that suck is that I could possibly be infected, and in Quebec they only test 40 persons per day. On the good side I will work from home for the next months and play SOLO boardgames and videogames. I am lucky I live in a very remote location alone.
I definitely remember playing this game WWF WrestleMania the arcade game and having it for my home console I also still have for the Sega Saturn WWF in your house they were weird wrestling games I definitely felt like it was Mortal Kombat but in a wrestling ring and of course with the wrestlers.
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries That's par the course for the Super NES. People rag on the Sega Genesis for having bad audio and generally muddier, darker graphics but the Super NES had a slower CPU and greater tendencies towards slowdown. The audio wasn't always better on SNES, either. Audio samples were limited by cartridge size constraints and the samples could be tinny if they were compressed too much. Out of all the console systems I've owned, I think the Super NES had the worst slowdown issues. There were also quite a few games that had to be scaled down on Super NES because of memory/sprite issues. The Super NES version of Samurai Shodown reduced the character sprites by over 50% and took out the scaling effect altogether I remember correctly. It was still better than the Sega Genesis which lost a character altogether but wow were the graphics small on the SNES port! This is coming from a guy who generally appreciated the Super NES more than the Sega Genesis! There were still entire categories of games that played better on the Sega Genesis for CPU performance reasons (sports games, side-scrolling shooters) and the odd dual-platform game (Earthworm Jim) that was better on the Sega Genesis. I liked most arcade game conversions better on the Super NES for the better audio and color reproduction but even those weren't 100% better knowing the SNES had 16-bit audio and a wider color palette. There an even better 16-bit console out there (the SNK Neo Geo AES) but it was so expensive and focused almost solely on arcade parts from the arcade version, the Neo Geo MVS. I like fighting games, personally, but wouldn't buy a system solely for fighting games. I like variety!
Kudos to you my friend. It seems that you actually lived that time and now have a lot of knowledge to pass! I myself was 14~17years back in 1994~1998 and have few things to pass to the people here and I guess I already did the majority I could. I will still be here waiting for the latest news as long as my poor health allows me to.
I gotta say, I don't usually care much for digitized graphics, but I think this actually looks really good. It seems a lot faster than in other games that use that style of sprites, and the more over-the-top animations/sprite manipulation really help sell everything better. I also like fighting games much more than "straight" pro-wrestling games (or whatever nonsense 2K considers a "simulation" that they've turned the WWE games into now), so I'm super interested in any games that seek to make them more like fighting games. Games like Def Jam Fight for NY, WWE Brawl, Saturday Night Slam Masters, etc. are my jam. I totally ignored this when this came out since I wasn't a fan of wrestling until the Attitude era a little later, but I think I have to hunt down the PSX port for my retro collection now!
The animation is really smooth and the character models are well defined. They look terrible in my opinion in the in your house game but again that wasn't done by midway. Glad you enjoyed the video
I got to meet Mark Turmell back in 2016. He also mentioned that Mr. Fuji was a hardcore drinker and could legit drink the entire crew (and the wrestlers, including Yoko!) under the table. He also said that Luger did his job as he was supposed to, but was the most arrogant, self important person he'd ever met.
I can believe that about Lex Luger but maybe he was just staying in character? Maybe not though because at the time he was not known as the narcissist but all American. Thanks for the info
In my opinion the best wrestling game of all time. It was one of the first games I bought for Playstation and I used to play it for hours with friends.
In my opinion it's more of a fighting game with a little bit of wrestling thrown in. I so prefer wrestlefest or the N64 games like no mercy but this is still fun to play as well
of course bret heart and shawn michaels were awesome. we all knew that was going to be the case :) i still remember watching wrestling in the 90s. it was a different time. it was also a lot better than it was post 90s.
People rag on the New Generation way too much, and forgive the Attitude Era for its goofy shit. I loved watching in 93-94-95. Razor was my dude. That first Ladder match blew my mind. My buddy had a charter box so we watched all the PPVs over at his place, also watched Raw every Monday night.
The PC version was the first i knew and played. I played it very intensively alone and against a friend of mine. I always took Bret Hart and my buddy took Sean Michaels. Many years later i noticed there is an arcade version, via MAME. The MAME version is now my favorite. It is quite harder and more colorful.
One of the funest old school games ever. Also love in your house despite all the hate people give it I think it's super unique and fun especially if your a big WrestleMania arcade fan.
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries super ironic you wrote the gamefaq for in your house. I legit read through it to learn the combos and finishers day before I saw this vid. Very well done.
I really did enjoy the game though, I never watched WWF/WWE. I grew up watching Georgia Championship Wrestling, which became WCW at some point. Actually, when WCW aired their last show, it was the last wrestling I ever watched, until AEW rolled around (Still haven't watched WWE). But, I did love the games, this one in particular, was very fun. Once again, amazing video, enjoyed every second.
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries The Horsemen were amazing! One of the first teams I 'Loved to Hate' haha. I started out as a Tommy 'Wildfire' Rich fan and when he and The Junkyard Dog teamed up, it was my first ever dream team. Georgia Championship Wrestling use to come on early Saturday mornings here and the show was 2 hours long. It was a family thing too, my whole family would get up nice and early on Saturdays and watch it together and when it went off, well, it was Saturday morning cartoon time haha :D
I had the CD Rom of this game and is an exact copy of the actual arcade with Jerry Lawler and the dark ending texts intact! Unlike the other hime consols, the winner isn't seen with a belt.
I’m surprised that they didn’t use a cart or something to move Yokozuna to the back of the facility. As far as Razor and Doink goes, it doesn’t surprise me they were tough to work with due to their personal demons. And of course Bret & Shawn were good to work with they were on top of the card at that time and didn’t want backlash. Personally I would’ve love to seen Mr. Perfect (one of my faves) and Adam Bomb in the game.
Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels are absolute professionals and want to help the business as much as they can. They were both carrying the company at the time.
Bret and Shawn took this so seriously because they knew to alot of people this would be their introduction to the WWF. This game is what got me watching wrestling around this time and all of my friends were obsessed with this game. Great stuff!
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it
The coolest thing about In Your House, I could take my saturn disc, put it in a CD player, and listen to wrestlers themes while playing with my rasslin toys

This game (arcade version) looks awesome! I love the supernatural and comical additions to their moves. The shock buzzer really shocks!!!
I always enjoy the game even though wasn't a straight up wrestling title
Dude, I first saw this game at a gas station in St Louis. I was freaking out! It looked so good, and it had alot of good wrestlers.
It's amazing how good the graphics are considering it was 25 years ago
8 wrestlers were "lots" of Wrestlers?
I am also from saint Louis and saw this game in an arcade called the tilt
It's been a rough day, but these videos make days like these so much better. I'm so proud to be a Patreon supporter of this wonderful channel!
That is very kind of you to say, glad I could help out in some small way
I saw this notification and immediately watched it one of my favorite games ever and the fact that Undertaker demanded Jack Daniels makes me love him even more he’s the Greatest big man ever and he’s still going 2 decades later
LOL, I've always read stories about him and Jack Daniels so I wasn't surprised when I read about his demands :-)
Loved this game back in the day ! Played the hell out of it on Sega Saturn. Great video as always.
Thank you very much
If I'm not mistaken, the Saturn version is widely regarded as the best port.

I like fighting games, personally, but wouldn't buy a system solely for fighting games. I like variety!
I love the sound effects so much
The sound effects are really good
Kudos to you my friend. It seems that you actually lived that time and now have a lot of knowledge to pass! I myself was 14~17years back in 1994~1998 and have few things to pass to the people here and I guess I already did the majority I could. I will still be here waiting for the latest news as long as my poor health allows me to.
Great episode, ya ham & egger! :)
Thanks you pencil neck geek :-)
I gotta say, I don't usually care much for digitized graphics, but I think this actually looks really good. It seems a lot faster than in other games that use that style of sprites, and the more over-the-top animations/sprite manipulation really help sell everything better.
I also like fighting games much more than "straight" pro-wrestling games (or whatever nonsense 2K considers a "simulation" that they've turned the WWE games into now), so I'm super interested in any games that seek to make them more like fighting games. Games like Def Jam Fight for NY, WWE Brawl, Saturday Night Slam Masters, etc. are my jam. I totally ignored this when this came out since I wasn't a fan of wrestling until the Attitude era a little later, but I think I have to hunt down the PSX port for my retro collection now!
The animation is really smooth and the character models are well defined. They look terrible in my opinion in the in your house game but again that wasn't done by midway. Glad you enjoyed the video
That's it right there! I played this in the arcade! This is still a classic
Absolutely
In my memories , my PlayStation version was very similar to the arcade version but nope ! Great video man
The PlayStation was very similar just not quite arcade perfect
Mortal Kombat and pro wrestling 2 of my favorite things growing up. 👍🏻
That Undertaker combo was the only combo I learned on this 😂😂😂 this was a great game. They should definitely think about doing one like this now
The only one I ever learned was Shawn Michaels combo, I agreed they should redo it
Me and my cousins used to practice on big combos. I could do one with every character. Good memories lots of fun.
Great videos bro. Keep up the great work i just subbed
Thank you, I appreciate the nice words :-)
I got to meet Mark Turmell back in 2016. He also mentioned that Mr. Fuji was a hardcore drinker and could legit drink the entire crew (and the wrestlers, including Yoko!) under the table. He also said that Luger did his job as he was supposed to, but was the most arrogant, self important person he'd ever met.
I can believe that about Lex Luger but maybe he was just staying in character? Maybe not though because at the time he was not known as the narcissist but all American. Thanks for the info
I always wondered why this was so well done and the graphics looked like Mortal Kombat! Mystery solved
Glad you enjoyed it :-)
"A crackhead to a crackpipe!?" You and your warped sense of humor keeps me wondering what will you say next.
LOL, thank you very much :-)
This game was fun back in the day.
It sure was
I love this game. it was a late friend who introduced me to this wonder
It's always been a fun game play
I was first in my arcade to learn the combo system, made me legend.
Awesome, good job
Use like playing this game in the arcade when I was kid. Remember getting this game for the pc playing the game for hours at a time .
I really enjoyed the MSS-DOS version
Razor's 24 hit combo was the best.
In my opinion the best wrestling game of all time. It was one of the first games I bought for Playstation and I used to play it for hours with friends.
In my opinion it's more of a fighting game with a little bit of wrestling thrown in. I so prefer wrestlefest or the N64 games like no mercy but this is still fun to play as well
Midway was so
awesome back in the 90’s.
The 80s and 90s :-)
PatmanQC - History of arcade game documentaries No doubt. I believe the grid was their last arcade game?
of course bret heart and shawn michaels were awesome.
we all knew that was going to be the case :)
i still remember watching wrestling in the 90s. it was a different time.
it was also a lot better than it was post 90s.
Absolutely
People rag on the New Generation way too much, and forgive the Attitude Era for its goofy shit. I loved watching in 93-94-95. Razor was my dude. That first Ladder match blew my mind. My buddy had a charter box so we watched all the PPVs over at his place, also watched Raw every Monday night.
The PC version was the first i knew and played. I played it very intensively alone and against a friend of mine. I always took Bret Hart and my buddy took Sean Michaels.
Many years later i noticed there is an arcade version, via MAME. The MAME version is now my favorite. It is quite harder and more colorful.
I always enjoyed the PC version as well but you can't top the arcade game :-)
Great documentary!!!
Thank you!
Wow I never knew about WWE In Your House. Learned something new!
Looking back on it, it wasn't very good. At the time though, I thought it was great :-)
One of the funest old school games ever. Also love in your house despite all the hate people give it I think it's super unique and fun especially if your a big WrestleMania arcade fan.
I think it's a lot of fun as well
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries super ironic you wrote the gamefaq for in your house. I legit read through it to learn the combos and finishers day before I saw this vid. Very well done.
@@ConwayKitty Thank you my friend. It was still fun to play just not as enjoyable as the original
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries 100 percent agree.
6:43 memorable intro
It sure was which is why I had to put it in the video :-)
I really did enjoy the game though, I never watched WWF/WWE. I grew up watching Georgia Championship Wrestling, which became WCW at some point. Actually, when WCW aired their last show, it was the last wrestling I ever watched, until AEW rolled around (Still haven't watched WWE). But, I did love the games, this one in particular, was very fun. Once again, amazing video, enjoyed every second.
Thank you for the nice words. I started watching WCW right around 1986 when the horsemen were in full swing :-)
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries The Horsemen were amazing! One of the first teams I 'Loved to Hate' haha. I started out as a Tommy 'Wildfire' Rich fan and when he and The Junkyard Dog teamed up, it was my first ever dream team. Georgia Championship Wrestling use to come on early Saturday mornings here and the show was 2 hours long. It was a family thing too, my whole family would get up nice and early on Saturdays and watch it together and when it went off, well, it was Saturday morning cartoon time haha :D
Man i love your voice. Its cross of Norm McDonald and Walter Konkrite
Thank you, somebody else that I sounded like Norm McDonald as well but I'm not hearing it
I had the CD Rom of this game and is an exact copy of the actual arcade with Jerry Lawler and the dark ending texts intact! Unlike the other hime consols, the winner isn't seen with a belt.
One of my favorite all time games! Good times.
Absolutely, thanks for watching
I’m surprised that they didn’t use a cart or something to move Yokozuna to the back of the facility.
As far as Razor and Doink goes, it doesn’t surprise me they were tough to work with due to their personal demons.
And of course Bret & Shawn were good to work with they were on top of the card at that time and didn’t want backlash.
Personally I would’ve love to seen Mr. Perfect (one of my faves) and Adam Bomb in the game.
That was my first thought, why didn't they have a card or something to take them back.
I agree with all of your points 1000%
@@petef9042 Yes that's what I meant, my voice to text mode doesn't work that well sometimes
Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels are absolute professionals and want to help the business as much as they can. They were both carrying the company at the time.
