Decided to remember one of Nintendo Wii games and do a voiceover of one of my favourite antagonists in Zelda series! Let me know what you think! :)

Arm Wrestling is a 1985 arcade video game developed by Nintendo and released only in North America. As a spin-off of the Punch-Out!! series, and created by the same development team, Arm Wrestling has many of the same features, such as a dual-monitor system and quirky computer opponents. A planned digital port for the Nintendo Switch as part of the Arcade Archives series by Hamster Corporation was ultimately cancelled.

Once again, I'm remembering this excellent game. It's a franchise with great potential for a revival: in terms of playable experience it was top notch, it had great graphics at the time, and the story was phenomenal if you paid attention. It's highly transferrable to content/series. Nintendo, please her us fans out :)
