      @GtBFilms :) Well done! I'll be playing Portugal, same reasons, but thankfully I think it's a bit better than Scotland.

      It is a fun game overall, though I agree it can be a bit "samey". I also end up for the most part running from one end to the other, or trying to pass the ball diagonally-forward to the wings and then back center. Your players will usually try to run to get the ball.

      I don't bother with the "run" button much (is there a run button in this version?), mostly passing and shooting. I don't do high passes much either.

      Try to shoot when you're near the goal, even if it's not showing the special icon that will change the view, as sometimes you'll get a rebound and can score while the keeper is on the floor.

      Overall, I find it to be a good way to spend some time - I'm not sure how it'll be to get a high score, as I'm certainly not the most proficient there, but should be enjoyable nonetheless :) I may get some time on the weekend to try it out!

        There's limited (and low Res) artwork available for ultimate 11... Still that didn't stop me from trying to make an overlay for it...
        Updates on this tonight ;-)

              @UDb23 would you mind in changing the attack/defense letters to clearer color? Maybe cyan... I think the dark blue in the red background is a bit hard to read. ;-)

                  Image updated. I just recreated in vectors the instruction sheet scan; original bitmap was too bad to be used directly. Colors were the original... but I agree on that background they were not so readable.
                  Overall quality is not in line with my own standards but couldn't find any good source files, as said.

                  Therefore I created something looking like the typical NEO GEO machine/cpo.

                        Neither one... :-)

                        Unfortunately I have no talent for woodwork. I bought from a guy who makes these cabinets and controllers. And then I've put my raspi2 in it. I use this video that @Rookervik made as boot splashscreen and it looks really great on my cabinet:

                          I'm not a soccer fan, but I gave this game an honest try, and I'm awful at it. I was never a fan of sports video games. Then again, I'm not really a sports guy in general.

                            Thanks for giving it an honest try at least!

                                @obsidianspider Oh my, thanks for pinging this!

                                I gave it a few tries during the weekend, and these were my results:

                                0_1493035235065_IMG_6292.JPG

                                Overall, I preferred the World Championship as the SNK one feels like cheating since, if you want to try to max out your score, you can always pick the weakest teams to play against.

                                3 Matches, +5 goal difference. Not anything to really brag about, but this is so silent here that I want to at least get some traction :)

                                Cheers!

                                    The days are flying past here, and I barely get enough chance to try out the MAMEROW never mind get a decent score, I'm afraid!

                                    I'm going to give this one another go though as I really enjoyed it.

                                    This weeks ones look interesting too - particularly that roller blading one!
