If you had a N64 and friends, then you probably played a couple of different games on the regular. Some game starring a "Bond. Mr. James Bond" or something, called Goldeneye 007, seemed to be the crowd favorite. Another game some would say was quite popular was Mario Kart 64, a game that involved kart racing and some guy with a mustache. Last, but not least (for us, anyway), was a series of wrestling games based on both the WCW and WWF (a magical time when one guy didn't totally destroy what used to be a kind of fun program to watch).Now, the last amazing wrestling game that the N64 would ever see (and most would agree, gaming as a whole) might be making its way onto the Virtual Console. But, it won't be the same game you remember, because word on the street is that it's to be updated with the current roster of WWE superstars. While we could care less about the new crop of wrestlers, we could easily create all of our old favorites using the awesome character creation mode.
Who else is with us in wanting this game?

So wait, did you ever actually say what game it was?
Also no, I'm not with you. I absolutely hate all wrestling games.

As the saying goes, pic related.
And a No Mercy remake would be freaking SWEET.

Please God! Please be true. I have whole stories I could tell you about this game and its character creator....This game came out at just the right time in college and everyone on our hall had their own characters. My roommate and I created the 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse. The real ones (Death, Famine, Pestilence, and War), not some Rick Flair wanna be stuff... I also had created Bill and Ted and my kickboxing instructor. Those were fun times and late nights. I didn't think this was a possibility due to licenses and whatnot, but please let this happen!

Hollywood Hogan? WTF? This is WWF NO MERCY. Not WCW/nWO Revenge, although that game was really good too.

No Mercy would be amazing, but, knowing Nintendo, they'd axe the custom character creation aspect of it. Which was amazing.

If they're redoing the rosters anyway, fair money says Benoit's out for sure.
I will be so happy if this comes out.

I would assmume that anyone not currently under contract would be removed from the game. As for Benoit..you're more likely to see Pee Wee Herman in it.
I still can't figure out why 68658907 games later, they still can't come up with a create mode thats as good as the one in No Mercy.

I had this game, and I didn't even like wrestling. I guess that's a testament to how fun it was.

Wow! I hope this is true. I would love an online feature, but doubt that would happen. Anyway, this game was amazing and with updated rosters, arenas, titles, and storylines in Nintendo 64 fashion would just be great and I am sure a tremendous addition to the WiiWare or Virtual Console.

If they do remake it, I hope they re-add the ring entrance. That's the one area that Wrestlemania 2000 trumped this game in; No Mercy cut the ring entrance in half.
Oh yeah, and they removed tag team entrances.
Also: poster 1 is a complete noob.

in other VC news.. where the hell is the original Tetris? sure I got it on my DS and what not but nothing beats that music! there are other games I would like to see on VC but Tetris is probably #1 and i don't think I am alone in this...

ArashiUzumaki, what a ridiculous menu song!
Fact; WWF NM > SNSM.
D-Lo looked like Carlton Banks, in this magical game.

No Mercy 64 remains the BEST wrestling game to date. I can 100% confidently say that before playing SVR 08. Anyway, it coming to the VC would fully warrant me buying the Wii. Not that it isn't warrented already but any doubt as to why I bought it would be shattered.

Oh wow.. I loved No Mercy so much, and actually still own the original cartridge for it. I'd love to see this come on the Virtual Console!

Best wrestling game ever? You mean Fire Pro Wrestling for the Dreamcast? No no, silly. The Wii doesn't have DC games on the virtual console (although that'd rock hardcore).

If they're really going to take the time to change the roster of the game, they should also take the time to make it playable online. I loved all the AKI wrestling games for the N64.
