SNK Corporation announced Big Bang Pro Wrestling is now available for Switch, a surprise release as part of their ongoing NEO GEO re-releases.

While Big Bang Pro Wrestling is now available for Switch via the eShop, a price point is set at $7.99. Big Bang Pro Wrestling was originally released back on November 23, 2000 for the NEO GEO Pocket Color. The game featured many wrestlers that were based on actual WWE professional wrestlers.

Big Bang Pro Wrestling is one of the few games for the system that has a working English language option. It’s also rarer and harder to get than most other NEO GEO games, making it quite valuable – so this is a welcome surprise for fans who haven’t been able to play it to this day.

Here’s a new trailer:
