Супер Футбол для Super NES

Football (soccer) video game for SNES

Super Soccer, known in Japan as Super Formation Soccer (スーパーフォーメーションサッカー), is a football (soccer) video game developed by Human Entertainment for the Super NES. Human published the game by themselves in Japan whereas Nintendo did it overseas. It was released in Japan in 1991 and in the United States and Europe in 1992. It was on the Super NES launch lineup in Europe, due to the sport's popularity. In 2017, it was rereleased in Japan as part of the Japanese Super NES Classic Edition. The game has also been included in the SNES app available for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers.

The game consists of exhibition games and tournament games. In exhibition, one can choose to play either a match or a shootout (which is not available in the Japanese version). In tournament mode, one plays until one beats all other teams. After beating all the national teams, the player must play one final team, Nintendo (Human in the Japanese version). When the tournament has been won, the player receives a code to play the game in a more advanced mode.

The Gameplay provides a wide range of shooting options. It is possible to do a low shot by pressing the passing button. The shoot can be straight or bented in either way to make the shoot wider or closer. The same thing is possible by shooting higher. A shot that would normally be too wide, central or narrow can be bent.

Crosses can be made while the player stands horizontally or diagonally towards the goal line. Standing horizontally, the ball can be bent inwardly to make a dangerous cross. Standing diagonally, the cross can be bent both ways: inwardly (the ball bends towards the goal line, which makes the cross shorter) or outwardly (making the cross longer). Outward Crosses are an effective way to score goals by a header.

Super Gamer gave an overall review score of 63% writing "Once one of the best footie sims, competition from more recent releases has made this seem painfully slow and unsophisticated."
