2 Introduction
--------------
This game was been released in the American continent only for Latin America by
intervention of Mr. Teruhide Kikuchi of nintendo LA, which was true hit in all
the continent,the normal version of the game ISSS was been engaged before,with
the same succes.for the record Nintendo LA thought about bringing Parodius, but
in the end they decided to bring this super game of soccer being the most
popular sport in LA, I believe that this is the only game released for LA,that
never saw the light in USA only by emulation or some European or Asian
importer.

4 ways of play
--------------
When you begin the game after the spectacular intro, it is a screen with allot
of options (8 for be more exactly), each one of this options can modify alot
the game or is extra.

OPEN GAME

In Open Game we have three basic options:The first is the "Open Game" that is
the one that allows to only play started off you against the CPU or up to 3
friends(to play 4 simultaneous people), after this we have two ways of match:
Short League and Short Tournament, in these options can play up to 8 people
alternate in parties of a person versus other.

Depending the way of the game that you choose you will be able to choose the
number of teams that participates, who controls each one of them and later to
decide the matches.A good point of this game is that a team can be chosen more
than once.

SCENARIO

This option already existed from the first ISSS, here you choose some of the
scenes that there are and will have to correct the things.  Each one of these
has different difficulty that you will be able to check with the stars that one
of them has each (between more stars, more difficult).  Each one of these
scenes begins with a play in stopped ball.

INTERNATIONAL

The option of International is something as well as the Short League of the
option of Open Game but with the difference of which only you can choose one
team and you will have matches against several at world-wide level to arrive at
the end. You will in the beginning have death matches against teams that is
assigned to your group later  go to eighth, quarters, semifinals and the great
end.

PENALTY KICK

Penalty Kick, already you have yourself to imagine that this is, the option to
practice your penalty shots  Here one or two can play; before each session each
one of the players will choose what members of the team will throw the
penaltys.

WORLD SERIES

Here, unlike the option of "International", you are eliminated yourself first
with all the equipment that the machine assigns to you.  In agreement you
advance you are receiving your password to keep your advances.  World Series
has a quite complete screen of options that we will analyze conscientiously
more ahead within this analysis.

TRAINING

In this option there are two ways of game, first of them , is the one of
"Training" and which is recommendable so that you play first if you do not have
experience with the first ISSS.  The option training has other 4 "Sub-Option",
by thus calling them.  First of them  is the one of "Free Training" and you
appear whit your team in the field,without rival, so that you know what to do
with your pass,goalkeeper and shot to goal.  The second option is the one of
"Defense Training";  here what you will have to do is to prevent that the three
players who appear arrive at your goalkeeper and score a goal.

The two remaining options are those of "Free Kick Training" where you practice
your free shots to "Goal" and the one of "Keeper Training", this option will
serve to dominate you the movements of your goalkeeper because they will appear
two rival players trying to score in your "Goal".

The second way of game is the one of "Challenge Mode" where, by the way the
records are not saved, it has the following challenges:  Each one of these with
4 levels of difficulty.

"Dribble":  The objective is here to avoid  your opponent, touch the flags and
to throw to goal

"Pass":  It passes the ball to all your companions as fast as you can and later
shoot to goal.

"Shoot":  An option quite simple throw to goal with the difficulty of which it
must be in a point in specify.

"Defense": Steal the ball from the opponent and shoot to goal as fast as you
can

"Corner Kick":Pass the ball or tries to make an Olympic goal to a point in
specify.

"Free Kick":The most difficult since the shoot button requires much precision
in the control of the force when pressing and to give effect him to the ball in
the air, as it always must be in a point in specify.

For the record in the options of "Free Kick"," Corner Kick "and" Shoot ";  it
is not necessary to put it in the point in specify, but if you want to break
the record  you must necessary do, Do I mention that in this game they not
saved the record.

PASSWORD

This surely already you know for what is it: in order to keep the advances that
you obtain in the game.  Unfortunately the option of password is only used for
some ways of game, the best thing in this case had been to put battery for
besides automatically keeping your advances, kept the record from the special
option from training.

OPTIONS

To the last one we will find the screen of general options, you change some of
the "basic ones" of the game here, because each way of game has its screen of
options.  Here the things that you will be able to modify are the following
ones:  The difficulty level, the duration of the games, if you want that they
mark fouls, red yellow cards and, the time of compensation are off or on,what
referee you want.For the record, you cant modify data for "World Series and
"International" it keeps the default option of the game.

As it mentions before, aside from these options there are others vary depending
on the game way that you choose, these more than nothing, is of technical
character and next you I present/display them.

In order to begin you will have the possibility of choosing in what stage to
play and with what climate.  There are three climates to choose and 6 stages
around the world, this is something interesting then each one has different
measures.

Each one of the players will be able to choose of independent way some of the
different types from control that there is, each that selections some of the
controls, appears a brief explanation in the low part of the screen.

Also you have the possibility of modify the game, consists on two edit modes,in
one you will be able to modify the color of the uniform of your equipment, to
create the uniform that is of your affability, also you will be able to modify
the abilities of some player, in special adding to him or reducing points to
him to some (or all) its attributes.  In order to make this accounts with a
limited number of points with which you will only be able to increase its
abilities to 3 or 4 players of your team.To the end I will give a trick with
which you can continue increasing the abilities of your players.

The option to choose formation is very complete in this version, because it not
only is to choose from the 16 favorite formation.You are able to choose one of
formation that there is, but in addition to that you will be able to choose to
a player in special so that it is added to the attack, if therefore you wish to
carry out it some personal strategy.

If you have problems with some player of the opposite team him you will be able
to put a "personal mark" with the option of "Man to Man"(yes sounds nasty
but.), this will cause that the player of your team that you choose not
separates of the player selected throughout the game;this is quite good then
thus you will have greater possibility of steal the ball to him if the other
team made a pass to that player.

The game has programmed different strategies that you can use if therefore you
wish it.  You will be able to choose from one to four that they go from
"counterattack", the dirty "Off Side"  but the most effective one,to "leave in
line".You will be able to change of players if you do not like as they are
conformed the team originally or in case some player are in bad mood(the faces
are purple). As you can see this game is too complete, as far as options one
talks about.


Good I already speaks too much of the options but what about the game?;This
point can be solved easily with a simple phrase:  "It is Better", Yes that easy
is to describe the ISSS deluxe, because the control enough has been improved,
or has the more played that you can make, the graphs and the audio one are
better and mainly the option of 4 simultaneous players (Either in versus or the
4 against the CPU) adds enough challenge to him and entertaiment.If you have
played the previous title and play this one, you will see that it is certain
what I say this is without a doubt the best title of futból Soccer for snes.

5 ways to score
---------------
If it is the first time that you play the title,will be very difficult to
score(Even more in the level 5) but I will give some tricks here for this
game.(All was think locking to the right side)

Form 1:"Rookies" Kicking towards the right side,go all the way in the line of
trow in,press the button to run and and when you arrive to the small area of
the goalkeeper (from outside the area almost stuck to "trow in")press the shoot
button the X, but hard ,then you can see the ball enter easy, once in a while
put a little curve or effect to the ball towards inside just before touching
the post of above most of the times does not occupy, but with practices you
dominate for sure.If you change of side invert the trick(left side), instead of
doing down do it form above.

Note:This was my super trick, with this trick i win a Block Buster tournament
of the locality until they prohibited in the state finals,I lost with a stupid
fat guy, but not in soccer,I lose with the DKC by 20 or 27 bananas(this defeat
I remember to this day,man that fat bastard).The winner would visit the offices
of Game Pro U.S.
percentage of effectiveness 5-5

Form 2:Intermediate,In the shot of corner put your shoot line almost until the
point to put it of straight way to the line to corner but in about 15 degrees
makes the shot with button X and put a litle effect trying to score an Olympic
goal then(A image is worth than thousands words)If you have luck one of your
players make a headed and score.
percentage of effectiveness 3-1

Form 3:Intermediate, When you have the ball by the center of the field star
running with the Y button and when you observe the half moon inclines your
player about 45 degrees and make a powerful shot crossed whit the button button
X.
percentage of effectiveness 5-1

Form 4:Only expert,this play requires of but precision makes clears length
tries to gain the blow on the head with button B and keep the ball until the
opposite goalkeeper was,you listened to the word "one on one", just before it
arrives the goalkeeper to you, incline towards the right side and make a shoot
with button X.
percentage of effectiveness 5-3 or 5-4 (depends on how good you are).

Form 5:Only super players or veteran:Do the previous play, when you are within
the area tries to make dribles so that you bring a defender back and when you
have the goalkeeper in front, incline towards your right side and throws a
little shoot with button B giving him effect towards the left, if you made it
right,the ball sticks in the crosspiece of post or whatever you want to call to
him and the defender ends up putting in(The ball).it is true a "autogolazo".In
time to time you end up scoring.
percentage of effectiveness 5-3 or 5-4 (depends on the ability of the player).

Form 6:Only crazy or insane people like your "servilleta":Keep the ball by the
band (top right)then when you see the "area" run down in a 45* degree so the
goalkeeper is out of the "little area" the shoot whit the A button,the ball fly
towards the goalkeeper head and introduces to the goal, you will feel like the
very same Ronaldinho or Maradona.
Percentage of effectiveness 5-2. (Very difficult)

Note:If somebody has other forms to score,I will include it in this guide.

6 Tricks
--------

Now I will give some tricks you for this sensational title.

Selections "ALL STARS"
this trick allows you to have access to 6 new teams,5 of them with the best
players of each continent, and one with a star selection of all world.Ok now
begin,when the title screen appears (the screen with the title of the game)

R,up,Down,L,X,B,left,A,Right,Y.If you do it right you listened to a bark, which
indicates that the trick worked, then will appear a new group in which you will
find 6 new teams,the best one of these is the equipment of ALL STARS Selection,
because there he will be the best thing of the best thing.

arbitrate K9
This other trick the one I more like,a K9 referee but energetic in his
decisions,in the title screen press in control 2:

11 negative Points
------------------
If somebody played the Japanese version of this game the "Fighting Eleven 2"
will realize that the game comes whit a battery for all the modes, the
commentators speak any play in a dramatic way,the game counts the goals you
have and against,a table of goals by team ,a table of strikers, when doing a
substitution is listened to the voice of one girl, (much similar to the
reality,the only time that I was in Japan I went to see a match of the Mexican
selection with Japan and the substitution is listened equal), the game in level
5 is much more difficult to score that in the American  counterpart,and how
about eliminating Uruguay a Conmebol team in Concacaf, this must be because
they cleared teams (like Canada),cleared Mexico of the "first Scenarios"of the
second ISSS. The game that I mention was a hit in Japan Mexico took 2-0 to
Japan and the dwarf of Jorge Campos made 3 mistakes so the game finished 3-2
from that then each new International put a cameo of this disagreeable game,
Fighting Eleven, Fighting Eleven 2, Fighting Eleven64 and ISS64, man this guys
made laugh of Mexico, (if somebody have the opportunity to play some recent
Japanese version of ISSS tell me and I put in here),the hack of Ronaldinho
Championship Brasileiro 98 is best and has "Copa Libertadores teams" is very
good.This game was engaged to Latin America at least in English(it suppose it
was in spanish),it depends of the success of sales of this game that new games
come to Latin America in Spanish,well the title was a big successs in all Latin
America (because soccer is the sport all Latin American loves and play since a
child),and in the end nothing.Like data Nintendo LA think about bringing
Parodius,Sailor moon R or Dragon Ball Z fighting game based on Saint Seiya(the
most popular anime in that time),but in the end they decided well in bringing
the best soccer game ever.
