T O U K O N R E T S U D E N 4 A pro wrestling game for the Sega Dreamcast FAQ and Move List Version 0.60 May 3, 2000 Copyright 1999-2000 Jeff "CJayC" Veasey With a great amount of help from Professer Revolution See the bottom of this document for copyright, distribution, and contact information.

Menu and Options Translations IV. Basic Move List V. The Wrestlers VI. Administrivia ---------------------------------------------------------------- I. Introduction Please note that this document is a work in progress. It's not done. It's not even _near_ done. But, I felt it was my responsibility to take the first crack at coming up with a decent translation guide and move list for this game. Currently, I've only done the top-level menus and most of the of the basic moves. The individual wrestler moves should be pretty simple to do once I get started, so that coupled with the fact that another contributor has already taken a first crack at the edit mode means I'll tackle that sooner. My current plans are to do the following: 1) Get the rest of the basic moves and menus translated. 2) Go through and translate each wrestler's move list. 3) Document and translate the edit mode and all its options (!) Remember, the feedback I get on this guide will help it grow. If I get people telling me that they're using the guide, I continue writing, K? If you have additions to this guide, check the e-mail address at the bottom of the FAQ. V0.1 (9/15/99) : First release. Top-level menus and a few basic moves. V0.2 (9/15/99) : Added in move priority information. V0.3 (9/16/99) : Added the required ASCII art (That's "Toukon Retsuden" in Japanese, straight from the game's logo), wrestler list. V0.35 (9/16/99) : Wrestler name corrections. See the last section for credit. V0.36 (9/17/99) : One more quick horrible translation error fixed. V0.4 (9/17/99) : More wrestler name fixes, 1/2 of the basic moves xlated. V0.45 (9/17/99) : One more wrestler name fix, more moves xlated. V0.5 (9/21/99) : Shinya Hashimoto's moves done. V0.51 (9/21/99) : Kensuke Sasake's moves done. V0.55 (10/10/99): General defense and a few Tag Match moves done. V0.60 (5/3/00) : After an incredibly long delay, lots more wrestler moves, graciously contributed by Professer Revolution ---------------------------------------------------------------- II.

Basic Move List >>1. The Basics << Movement is performed with the digital (i.e. 8-way) controller, not the analog stick. When downed, tap any button repeatedly and press the controller to get up. A: Hitting Skill Each wrestler has their own selection... coming soon Near Standing Opponent: Slap or kick Near Downed Opponent: Kick or elbow drop B: Suplex Skill Each wrestler has their own selection... coming soon Near Standing Opponent: Begin suplex attack Near Downed Opponent: Pick up opponent and suplex Y: Submission Skill Each wrestler has their own selection... coming soon Near Standing Opponent: Begin submission attack During Attack: Cancel (when referee starts counting) Near Downed Opponent: Pick up opponent and strike X: "Action" Button Performs various actions. See the basic move list below. L: Taunt R: During single match, Taunt. During Battle Royale, change target. Move Priorities: Each of the three attack skills has higher priority than one of the others: A --beats--> B --beats--> Y --beats--> A (Hitting) (Suplex) (Strike) (Hitting) So, when two opponents attack at the same time, the one with the highest priority wins. A simple hit beats out a suplex, a strike move will connect over the hit, and a suplex beats out the strike. Stun Levels: There are four levels of stunning an opponent. These levels help determine exactly what moves you can perform. N: Normal (not stunned) S: Small Stun (Torso and head waving back and forth slowly) M: Medium Stun (Torso and head weaving all over) L: Large Stun (Weaving all over the place, shuffling feet) >>2.
