Gameplay

Step into the squared circle with 3 Count Bout (known as Fire Suplex in Japan), a fast-paced, two-player wrestling game from SNK released in 1993 for the Neo-Geo MVS hardware. Choose from ten distinct wrestlers, each possessing unique power attacks and malevolent moves to unleash on your opponent. Gameplay revolves around utilizing joystick movements for positioning and dashes, along with punches, kicks, jumps, and tag team maneuvers—essential when strategizing for a pinfall victory. Master the intricacies of combat by chaining together attacks, executing devastating Power Attacks by pressing both punch and kick buttons simultaneously, or unleashing Malevolent Moves through rhythmic joystick patterns. A power gauge adds another layer to the action, allowing players to build up energy and unleash super moves like Roy Wilson’s Fire Suplex or Gochack Bigbomb's Megaton Crusher. With its straightforward controls and brutal, arcade-style wrestling action, 3 Count Bout delivers a competitive tag team experience that remains engaging even after repeated matches.
