Tehkan World Cup: Difference between revisions

A port of Tehkan World Cup was released on December 7, 1990 in Japan for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] known as ''Tecmo World Cup Soccer.''<ref>http://www.gamespot.com/nes/sports/tecmoworldcupsoccer/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=gsbottomnav&tag=quicklinks%3Breviews</ref>. This is not to be confused with [[Nintendo World Cup]] of the same year<ref>http://www.gamespot.com/nes/sports/worldcupsoccer/index.html?tag=result%3Btitle%3B0</ref>, nor [[Tecmo Cup Soccer Game]] released in September 1992<ref>http://www.gamespot.com/nes/sports/captaintsubasa/index.html?tag=similargames%3Bimg%3B1</ref>. It featured the same musical score (albeit adapted to the NES sound hardware) and gameplay, which (as with later console releases) was hampered by the lack of analog control. A choice of teams was now available, while the competition format and game lengths were different to Tehkan World Cup. Features omitted due to hardware restrictions included the on-screen "scoreboard" and radar, while the "grass" had a simpler, more unified texture. Players did not celebrate during the goal sequence, but the goal net was shown to bulge upon receipt of the ball - a touch not present in the original arcade version. Slide tackles could now be initiated by the player, while the behavior of the ball was altered in some situations - it could bounce after a high kick, and rebounded from the net and goalposts in a slightly different manner.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etQ7SF7T29g</ref>
