  • A playthrough of Nintendo's 1985 sports game for the NES, Soccer.
    This video shows two different matches. The first is playing as the USA on level three. The second (8:00) is playing as GBR on level five.
    Along the same lines as Baseball, Volleyball, and Golf, Soccer was a member of Nintendo's black box line-up of games. Appearing on shelves on the day of the console launched in the United States, Soccer was one of the most accomplished footy games yet produced.
    Each team has six players, and the matches hold with most of the standard rules. Penalty kicks and throw-ins are both here, as are penalty shootouts if a match ends in a tie.
    The collision detection for the ball can feel a little awkward and imprecise at times, making Soccer feel not quite as polished as the likes of Baseball and Golf, but it was very well received in its time. Several players could be on-screen without slowdown or flicker, and coordinating a team was much easier than in previous soccer games thanks to the game's (primitive but innovative) interface that transfers control to whoever is nearest the ball.
    The two-player head-to-head mode was a fierce bit of fun if you had a buddy that played on your level.
    Soccer is one of the less celebrated games in Nintendo's initial NES lineup, but that doesn't take anything away from how fun it can be, even now.
    (In all honesty, I'd take this over whatever lootbox-filled FIFA garbage EA has put out in recent years.)
    And can I just say? That title screen is one of the best NES title screens ever! It looks like a neon Las Vegas sign done up in hot dog cart colors. I love it. That halftime show is pretty sweet, as well.

Ja grałem tylko na podróbce NESa z targu, ale działał idealnie jak oryginał - sprzedawcy na targach wtedy nie mogli komuś sprzedać aż takiego szrotu jak dziś wciskają na Allegro, bo na wsi to już nikt więcej by od nich nic nie kupił 😉 Ta gra Batman była naprawdę fajna. Wydany chyba w 1989. No i Soccer z 1985 oczywiście obowiązkowo ❤

      Is that the one that's the same as Nintendo World Cup? I played that a fair bit.

    • @bestchannelintheworld
      @bestchannelintheworld Před 3 lety

      ​@@NintendoComplete Oh no, though it's made by the same company and has the same main characters, it is INFINITELY more complex than Nintendo World Cup. It's got ball physics and player inertia that are pretty much identical to River City Ransom (that is, the most advanced on the NES), it's also the only soccer game on the system that has actual goal post and crossbar collision so that the ball can hit those. The combat system is also similar to RCR where you can fight anyone on the field and the elite enemy teams have unique fighting abilities. The game has dynamic weather (!) where wind realistically affects ball and player movement, rain forms puddles of mud in real time on the field in which you get slowed down, lightning can strike players and tornadoes can carry you or the ball away. Players on the Nekketsu team all have unique special ball strikes, as well as each enemy team also has one, and they all have their own animation. It's also got complex AI which is unique for every team (you can also choose AI patterns for your own team, as well as standard soccer tactical formations), and an RPG system for your team where mood affects each individual's level of play and you might have to do things to improve it or use substitutes. Also, the graphics are music are amazing, and the game runs with surprisingly minimal slowdown. This game has got it all, it's miles ahead of any sports title even from the 16 bit era. Unfortunately, it's in Japanese only but a good fan made English translation patch exists, as well as everything's in kana (no kanji) so even if you play the original cartridge it's still not that hard to figure out the basics.

      @NintendoComplete  Před 3 lety
