Zico Soccer (ジーコ サッカー)

football management video game that allows players to become the head coach of an international football team; it was named after the Brazilian midfielder Zico, who at the time was playing for Japanese team Kashima Antlers. The game is mostly in the Japanese language although some words are in the English language
.

Gameplay

There is an exhibition mode, training mode, and two different kinds of cup (tournament) modes.[2]

The game starts with a

coin toss and the winner chooses to have possession of the football or to choose what side of the field to defend. No club play is possible with national leagues; there are only international teams (except for Kashima Antlers). However, England is excluded along with most other FIFA
member nations. Instead of directly controlling the players, the manager/player must choose who must pass the ball to which player, where to shoot the football, where to move the players on the board, and how they should shoot the football.

Evaluation

In Japan, due to the poor sales of the game, the game was sold at video game dump sales as low as 10 yen. Adult game developers would purchase a large number of the game for its catridge casing and switch the main game to an unofficial game, so they did not have to pay license fees to Nintendo. Used copies of "Zico Soccer" sold in Japan, may have a CERO 18+ sticker to indicate that the game is an adult modified version.[3]
