Nintendo World Cup (1990)

Nintendo World Cup is a video game of soccer published by Technos originally for NES in 1990 and for Game Boy in 1991, being in the latter version where the title would become extremely popular. Designed by Noriyuki Tomiyama, Hiroyuki Sekimoto and Mitsuhiro Yoshida, his original title is Nekketsu Kōkō Dodgeball Bu: Soccer Hen in the version of NES and Nekketsu Kōkō Soccer Bu: World Cup Hen in that of Game Boy, being the fourth title of the exemption Kunio-Kun. This exemption is little known in the western world, where the qualifications changed to locate them and did not join under a saga, although his deliveries are recognizable for the ridiculous design of his personages, having between his qualifications games as unlike as Renegade or the one that today we analyze. Of these original versions conversions would be done for Gentle Drive and PC Engine, but exclusively in Japan, being an exclusive Nintendo title for the rest of the world. Recently it has returned to the candlestick for his inclusion in the Virtual service I consoled of Nintendo Wii.

The title presents two ways different from game to us. In the way I Turn, once elected team, we will have to face one for one to thirteen remaining cocktails before rising with the long-awaited glass. The way Versus went so far as to turn in very popular for the entertaining thing that proves to compete against another human opponent on different fields of play (sand, dirt or ice). Also, the game allows up to four players in NES using the NES Four Score or the NES Satellite.

Nintendo World Cup gives us a vision enough arcade of a meeting of soccer. The teams are formed by six players (including the doorman), existing not neither out of game nor the absences. In fact, on the aggressive earnings our possibility of victory will depend, since we will be able to achieve that one of our opponents remains an injured person during a short time period. Also, during the party we will be able to make use of up to five special throwings that will turn out to be much more difficult to tackle for the opposite goalkeeper.

The graphs continue the cánones of the exemption, with a few personages obstructionists and paticortos. The animations are not spectacular but although loaded with sense of humor, in such a way that he adapts himself perfectly in the style of game. At sonorous level it is not an outstanding title, with a quite forgettable sound-track and a few standard sound effects of the games console. Nevertheless, this does not steam up the fact that Nintendo World Cup is one of the video games of soccer more entertaining that we can try.

In this video you can see how the game is:
