International Superstar Soccer 64 - Nintendo 64 Review - HD

International Superstar Soccer 64 (officially abbreviated as ISS 64, originally released in Japan as Jikkyou J.League Perfect Striker and then later adapted as Jikkyou World Soccer 3) is a video game developed by Konami Computer Entertainment Osaka in the International Superstar Soccer series by Konami. It is essentially a Nintendo 64 version of International Superstar Soccer Pro. Its team lineup follows more closely the Super NES version of International Superstar Soccer Deluxe, only with South Africa replacing Morocco. It is similar to the PlayStation version.

International Superstar Soccer 64 review on the nintendo 64. Recorded using a dazzle and on original real console hardware and game cartridge.

The opening music is so good, it makes sense it would come back as a meme

The graphics and sounds are excellent. I especially liked the announcers British accent as he yelled and screamed "GOAL, GOAL GOAL!!" at each successful goal kick.

ISS 98 did it for me although just spent hours watching all the 90s football games and cannot believe how fast time has gone. Seems like yesterday was playing these games with my younger brother. Much love to all you 90s footy game fans

I was amazed how good this game was playing it back in 1997, superb game and trounced Fifa

This game was the best fun when you were playing with a friend and I used to laugh hysterically when you won the match while your friend was shooting and the ball was on it's way into the goal and the time would run out while the ball was still flying in the air.

At the time there was something so special about this game. The amazing special moves, the wonderful headers from corners, the scenario mode. I’ve played it again since, and it’s not as good as I remember, but I bought a 64 just to play this game, and boy did I play it.

[ParisDuCasse]

I'm not a fan of soccer games, but this is one of my all time favourite games. Even non soccer gamers would've had to at least play this game, a lot of times.

[Gberella]

I remember getting high and playing this at a friends place. On a smaller screen, I thought it was real life.

For me this is still the best football game to date, even with pes 2015 and Fifa 2015 in the midst to choose from.
Controls were natural, smooth, intuitive and made you able to make simple feints just by changing direction on the analog stick. Which in my opinion the new PES and Fifa series lack, where you often end up running out of the pitch just due to the lack of control of the player.
ISS 64 and ISS 98 for the N64 only had few improvements needed to make them perfect(like angles you always scored from, screw balls impossible for the goalie save)sadly ISS for gamecube got an overhaul to the controls which made them like in the now pes and Fifa games.
If tomorrow Konami anounced that they would release ISS for my PS3 with the bugs fixed for 50€ i would buy it crappy graphics/names and all.

[martyboy]

Been playing this recently, still a blast!

[valmarsan]

Love this game. Still play it now and again.

I went to GAME specifically to buy FIFA, but the guy working there convinced me that ISS was better, so I got it. I loved it, played it endlessly, for years! Years later I tried FIFA 64 and it was dreadful. That guy did me a real solid that day!
