sek69 Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 The only way would be to run something like Wine or another Windows emulator and run it from there. There probably won't be a direct Mac port since that platform is practically non existent in Japan (same reason there's no Xbox One version either).

The "Day One" Edition apparently comes with an NJPW Almanac. I haven't opened mine up yet to take a look though. I'd like to know this too, as I'm considering making the switch. I should be getting mine in the mail tomorrow. Have a couple days off work too so, will probably go gang busters I'm psyched to be getting the almanac as well. Don't have a ton of puro memorabilia but, I think it'll be a nice addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm waiting out on the PC version. I've never been great at the Fire Pro games, but if it has the NJPW label on it then it will get my financial support! The almanac sounds like a nice idea for a freebie; you'll have to post your thoughts on it when it arrives. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G. Badger Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Ok got my copy and looks pretty good so far...the case that is The cover featuring NJPW stars really makes it feel like a NJ game with the Fire Pro engine. The almanac is honestly a little bit disappointing. I didn't get the game solely for this but, I was hoping for a tad more. However, it is still pretty cool. Its the size and paper stock of a instruction manual but, in the style of a puro program (like you'd buy at a show). It has all of the wrestlers (separated by faction) and a small bio, their in ring avatar, their character traits, and point spread for their skills. I anticipate that bit of reference being helpful in creating wrestlers especially for folks that like "making" rather than downloading. If you're hoping for a mini book type almanac (which I think they showed in some promo material), that's not the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PS4 version came to exist because the Steam version exceeded expectations, so they're not just blowing smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G. Badger Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 Got to play a little bit last night and am very happy with it. The edit mode seems massive especially for the appearances. Its a little daunting actually but, I'd rather it be that way for the price. Did a few matches with Tanahashi, Suzuki, Fale, and Naito: face animation is much clearer so, they actually look like their real life counterparts. R2 functions as a pin button so X & Circle can be loaded with attacks. Oh and the default CPU AI setting is much improved and realistic. Strike battle is a nice thing that only happened a couple times per match too. Almost forgot! Each match, even exhibition, is rated with a percentage. I suppose that feeds into the focus on match ratings but, its nice Seems more lenient than FPR's match maker mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffey Posted September 27, 2018 Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 Just a heads-up, the New Japan DLC hit Steam today for Fire Pro Wrestling World for $20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blehschmidt Posted September 28, 2018 Report Share Posted September 28, 2018 I'll be picking that up this afternoon! Though be warned it apparently only works if you are online. Not that you have to play online against other people, but your computer must be connected or the stuff that came in the DLC will not work.

Gutenberger Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 So, I'm not really into creating or downloading stuff that much. Is the game worth the money, anyway? Or is it too big a part of the game to get my money's worth without it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blehschmidt Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 Not into creating, no problem. Not into downloading.....I'd probably stay away. You can pretty much download any wrestler ever. From George Hackenschmidt to Lazer Tron to Adrian Street to Adam Cole, they are out there. But the game itself just comes with about 30 made up wrestlers, and the New Japan guys that were just released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
