WildC.A.T.S. is a mixed bag. Its graphics are pretty dope, and feature huge sprites that push the SNES to the limit. Also, there are three unique fighters with decently sized movesets. However, the core combat is quite stilted, the enemy waves are tiny, and the mission-based stages mean you get lost a lot. The music's also nothing special.
