Cutie Suzuki no Ringside Angel (キューティー鈴木のリングサイドエンジェル; "Cutie Suzuki's Ringside Angel")[4] is a 1990 Japan-exclusive Sega Mega Drive video game about female professional wrestling.[1] It features the famous female Japanese wrestler Cutie Suzuki.
As the first video game based on women's professional wrestling for the Sega Mega Drive, it played a pivotal role in establishing women as protagonists in 16-bit video games,[5] predating Alisia Dragoon by two years.
Plot
Girls in Japan dream of fighting in a wrestling federation. All their training has helped them become professional wrestlers. Nine girls fight for the five major titles of women's professional wrestling.[6]
Gameplay
Punching is allowed in addition to traditional wrestling moves like the piledriver and the suplex.[1] There is even a spectator mode that allows players to preview each fighter's moves.[1]
Damage is displayed for each fighter by the facial expressions of the character. Players can continue to lose matches without the threat of a game over screen.[7] Each wrestler recovers stamina at a different rate. They also have different ways of expressing physical pain and they have different types of screams when they are in anguish.[5]
