Super Sidekicks is a sports game that was followed by two sequels on the Neo Geo (1994 and 1995).
+ Two-button control layout (with context-sensitive shoot/pass options) is straightforward and welcoming to all skill levels.+ While there's no on-screen player map, the arrows that show where your nearest team-mate is work decently enough.
+ Defensively, the game does a great job of automatically selecting a player to control who's in the best possible position.
+ Celebratory cut-scenes and foul animations are humorously expressive and add plenty of personality.
- Only 12 national teams are included and the modes on offer don't provide much in terms of longevity.
- Tactics and formation options are absent, so every match feels similar and lacking strategy.
- Random slowdown always appears whenever the ball reaches the penalty box.
