Jaleco Sports: Goal!
Before FIFA became the standard in soccer gaming, Goal! was celebrated as one of the most advanced and realistic soccer experiences of its time. The NES version features 16 international teams competing for the World Cup and 8 U.S. teams in a tournament format. It also includes a Shootout mode, where players attempt to score against defenders and a goalkeeper. The SNES sequel, Super Goal!, expanded on the original with a side-scrolling field, 24 international teams, instant replays, and full-field radar views. It also introduced strategic options like four defensive formations and more player control.
The Goal! series earned a reputation for its innovative approach to soccer simulation. Each team featured uniquely rated players across skills like dribbling, shooting, speed, defense, and ball control. The SNES version built on this foundation with enhanced graphics, new camera angles, and deeper gameplay mechanics.
