Kinnikuman Generations (PlayStation 2, April 22, 2004, Bandai)

An expansion of "Kinnikuman Nisei: New Generation vs. Legends". Sold on the 25th Anniversary of Kinnikuman. The Story Mode and Choujin Creation Mode from the first game are removed.

The slow loading time and Toshio Furukawa's portrayal of Kinnikuman (replacing Akira Kamiya from the first game) caused the game to disappointment many fans.
