Tips and tricks

  • Use the whole field, court or track. Players who hug one side become predictable.
  • 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.
  • Because this is a Simulation game, learn the systems slowly — simulations reward understanding over speed.
  • Because this is a Arcade game, restart early when a run goes wrong instead of grinding out a poor score.

Who will enjoy it
