Overview
Description

Shadow Fighter is a 1994 fighting title for the Commodore Amiga and Amiga CD32, developed by NA.P.S. Team and published by Gremlin Interactive. It offers a roster of 17 characters from around the world, plus two hidden fighters, and a secret cheat‑unlocked character named Pupazz. The game features a traditional three‑round format, a toggleable blood mode, and a training dummy for move practice. It runs at a steady 25 fps (or 50 fps with a cheat on AGA Amigas) and was praised as one of the Amiga’s best fighting games of its era.

WWF Attitude brings the excitement of 1990s professional wrestling to your screen, featuring a roster of more than 40 iconic superstars like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, and The Undertaker. Customize move sets and costumes to craft a unique competitor and dominate the squared circle. The game supports both single‑player and split‑screen multiplayer, with two‑man commentary from Shane McMahon and Jerry "The King" Lawler adding authentic broadcast flavor. Perfect for fans of classic wrestling action and competitive couch co‑op.
