I was hoping to possibly post a fact on the website about the fighting game with the largest number of playable characters, however in my fact finding I have discovered two somewhat conflicting facts.
The PS1 game "Tobal 2" is recognized by the Guiness World Records as the current holder with 200 different fighters.

However, the PS2 game "Fire Pro Wrestling Returns" has a roster of 327 playable characters (not counting the additional 500 custom character slots).
Whilst it's possible they could be considered to be both under the same category, Tobal 2 is an arcade fighter whilst "Fire Pro Wrestling Returns" is a wrestling game. Would you consider these 2 games to be classified as part of the same genre/record or both under their own seperate categories ie. "Largest character roster in a fighting game" and "Largest character roster in a wrestling game"?
