About This Game

Nintendo World Cup, released in Japan as Nekketsu High School Dodgeball Club: Soccer Story, is a 1990 soccer video game developed by Technōs Japan for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was localized and released outside Japan by Nintendo, with a Game Boy port also being released. It is the fourth installment of the Kunio-kun series. Ports for the PC Engine and Mega Drive were also released in Japan.

Gameplay

At its core, the game follows the rules of soccer, but with some noticeable differences. Each team has only six players (a goalkeeper, two defenders, a midfielder and two forwards). The players control only one of them, but can give orders (Pass/Shoot) to the others. Offsides is not present and fouls are not punished. Players can be knocked out by repeatedly tackling them. They will then stay down for the rest of the half. Players can also use up to five "super shots" per half. These powerful shots are used whenever a player does a bicycle kick or most of the time when doing a diving header, or when shooting after walking a certain number of steps. The "super shots" differ from team to team. The playing fields also differ in respect to material, e.g. ice, which heavily impacts movement of players and the ball. There are two game modes: Tournament mode: one or two players select from the 13 available teams, in order to defeat their CPU-controlled opponents. VS Match mode: enables players to confront each other on sand, ice or dirt playing fields. On the NES version, up to four players can compete using the NES Four Score or the NES Satellite.
