Soccer Kid Collection
Critic Reviews for Soccer Kid Collection
As far as the look and feel of the game, it definitely looks like a SNES game. And the action feels like something from the 90’s.
A paltry sum of 2 very similar versions of the same game, each with the same general shortcomings, does not a collection make
The Soccer Kid is a 2D action platformer series that first began way back in 1993 on the Amiga system. It was later ported to a myriad of consoles/home computers such as the Game Boy Advance, Super NES, Jaguar, MS-DOS; just to name a few. This newly released “collection” (should’ve been called a duology and not a collection) includes two games: the Super NES and MS-DOS versions. The Soccer Kid games tells the story of a young soccer player who must travel the world in order to recover the fragments of the stolen trophy. In order to accomplish his goal, our young protagonist uses, as you’d expect given the theme, a soccer/football ball as a weapon. Computer& Video Games
If you’re looking for a rock-solid way to play some classic mid-90s platformers with cool retro screen filters and controllers that actually work out of the box, this dual pack is perfect to pick up and play in short bursts.
