The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

Playing out fantasy cross-promotion wrestling clashes with the straightforward, competitive feel of an arcade sports sim.

About

For many wrestling, the desire to see "Misawa (NOAH) vs Mutoh (NJPW)", "Akiyama (NOAH) vs Nagata (NJPW)" or "Hashimoto (ZERONE) vs Kobashi (NOAH)" was all but a distant dream that goes beyond the framework of the organization fixtures. But this is the reality in the ring of "ASPW2"! No longer is there walls between the organization, the time to fight is now!
