The goal of this game is pretty simple, win the world cup using your chosen team. The game is pretty fun, although doing tricks in a manner that looks stylish is...well; let’s just say I didn't manage to do many during any of the important games. Whilst the gameplay is fun ... |

Roms Search - Finds your Game & Download
Why it is so important to keep the classic games culture alive:
Classic games are usually stored on cartridges, floppy disks and other devices that were manufactured often twenty, thirty and more years ago.
The more years that pass by and the more often these devices are used, the larger the percentage of cartridges, floppy disks and CDs there are with hardware based data errors.
When you collect classic hard- and software, you will see a drastic increase of failures at around 25+ years in both cartridges and consoles, even with almost perfect cleaning and care.
In simple words: Your games don't work anymore. If not today, they might fail in 10 or 20 years. The problem in 20 years is that the people who actually played and lived these games and their culture are getting older as well. The young generations of gamers have their own world of modern games and usually don't tend to deal with 'old school games' because they have no connection to the era in which they were made. It's in our hands, the generation of kids and young adults of the 80s and 90s, to preserve what we had, what happened and what we played. It is our responsibility now and always, because no one after us will do this job.
Once upon a time before the download age, companies asked the buyers of operation systems, games and office software to create security backups for personal usage. They knew why.
This was the only way let a game on these media survive the decades with endless days of usage, gaming party guests, lost boxes, smoking friends, burning sun heat, ice cold cars, liquids and oxidation. You would probably bring a Music CD or MP3 Stick today to a friends 80s party instead of your valuable 30 year old original records of your favourite band back then. Sometimes it just doesn't have to be the original. And that's what emulation and ROMs are all about, playing digital backups of original media on modern devices. More Info
