On the press start screen, theres a full tutorial of how to play, just cycle through things with L/R

sorta reminds me a little bit of super dodge ball.

Not a coincidence, since Super Dodge Ball was a game in the same series as River City Random in Japan. (As was Nintendo World Cup -- they were all Kunio-Kun games that were, for some reason, released as unrelated titles in the US.)

(Although you probably already knew that, and I'm sure someone else has already pointed this out.)

Also, it's cool that they're trying to release all the games under one label here, now, and establish the brand -- I always thought it was sort of a pity that they released them as unrelated games back in the NES era, since part of the joke was the silly cartoonish ultraviolence that they brought to everything.

Of course, the really big joke in the setting (the Samurai one, which took the schoolkids from the Kunio-Kun / River City Ransom / Super Dodge Ball / etc games and put them in an Edo-era samurai epic, using River City Ransom mechanics) was never released in the US at all. I hope they remake it -- it was hilarious. Although many of its mechanics were borrowed for the RCR remake.

Testing in Wood 1.09 for R4
doesn't fix it...

And the funny thing is that I got rid of R4 1.18 because Wood is running better almost all the games that R4 couldn't run and this is a game that R4 can run but Wood can't...

Talk about bad luck :S

noooooo

tested it with YSmenu too?

[EDIT] wait : 2 answers saying the contraries... so it works finaly?

 

[t4ils]

Working on DSTT, thanks

For a full tutorial (a little more than what's on the press start screen), play continuous mode

Works on Wood R4

Because I saw that I will try patching it again and see...
OK IT WORKED

And I saw that my card reader is busted because when I patched it I did it when the rom was still inside the sdcard... And it didn't work because my card reader

did change the "Date Modified" but in reality it was the same file (unpatched)
Wood R4 1.09

Er, could someone put it on something besides Rapidshare or Megaupload? My com cannot download from either of those sites for some reason...

Can anyone explain some general gameplay hints/tactics please?

I can only beat the lowest ranked teams on the normal difficulty setting and I get the feeling I'm seriously missing something in terms of how the game is supposed to be played.

Thanks in advance.

striking the ball hard or using special attack doesn't guaranty a goal
try lob the ball over the goal keeper...
try dash as fast as you can and launch the special attack
if the goal keeper got hit hard and fall then try to grab the rebound and score
sometimes a normal shot will also result a goal...

my advise.. try play the training (continuous play) mode to get familar with what you can do

 

[cowboycoder77]

Thanks. That seems to be helping. In a proper match though is it better to try and score yourself of leave it to the forwards? I kept passing it to the strikers but they rarely seem to do anything useful. Thanks again.

If that's all it takes to learn how to play this game then I must be doing something incredibly wrong. I understand soccer scores are supposed to be in the single digits etc, but I can't score at all.
