Tips and tricks
- If there is a power meter, release slightly earlier than feels natural; most meters are tuned so that "full" is too much.
- Watch the opponent, not your player. Their movement tells you where the ball or the gap is going to be.
- Timing beats power. Almost every sports game has a "sweet spot" input; find it in practice mode before you play for real.
- Use the whole field, court or track. Players who hug one side become predictable.
- Because this is a Retro game, old-school games rarely explain themselves; experiment.
