Virtua Striker 2002 GCN

Virtua Striker 2002 is the next installment of the extremely popular in Japan series of arcade games. These are sports games that deal with football. Virtua Striker was born on slot machines, of course, and it was on them that the most titles from this series were released. As far as other platforms are concerned, owners of Dreamcast consoles have also found several products. Virtua Striker 2002 is the only title in this series that was decided to move to the Nintendo console. However, this is not a completely new product. Virtua Striker 2002 is an extension of Virtua Striker 3 released earlier. Amusement Vision is responsible for the production of this game, which also developed Shining Tears or Super Monkey Ball 2.

This football does not contain any licenses. The only exception is the inclusion of the Japanese national team in the game. However, nothing stands in the way of modifying existing depots, using the built-in wizard tools. The player can not only create new players, but also modify the names of the stadiums, or choose new coaches. This product has four basic play modes to offer. The key point of the program is the Road to World Cup mode. According to his name, we enter a series of competitions, trying to qualify for the World Championship, and then win it. This is where we can count on advanced options for team building and management.

Other modes include Training Mode, which allows you to check many different tactical games, and finally Versus Mode, which allows you to face the other player. Generally, however, multiplayer options are not very extensive. The game is focused mainly on good, dynamic fun. As a result, the matches do not last long and the actions develop quite quickly. Virtua Striker 2002 is not a realistic product, allowing beginners to have fun too. Visually, the game presents itself on average, both in terms of the appearance of the players and the 13 concluded by the manufacturers of the stadiums.
