J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings Volume One  Interplay1994[b]J.R.R. Tolkein's The Lord of the Rings - The most enduring epic fantasy adventure around[/b]

The ring that has the power to decimate Middle Earth must be destroyed. Fate has chosen you to undertake this epic quest. Legend tells of a game up to 5 players that can be controlled by mouse or joypad. Is it fact? Or is it fantasy...?***Nope this isn't a misprint. It is not a new game for an old console. This game was for the old LOTR cartoon movie (anyone actually WATCH that??) which was fated to have no sequel.

This is NO Neverwinter Nights. It has a very simple interface (TOO simple sometimes) and NO you CAN'T walk around invincible wearing the ring like in some other games.

Kings of the Beach Ultra Games (Konami)1990Sun-bathed beaches from San Diego to Sydney are yours to conquer, as you challenge heavy-hitting volleyball superstars in world championship style competitions. From the opening serve to match point, the sand-blasting never stops. And to survive each grueling round, you must spike, crush, block and make daredevil returns. Timing and positioning are critical in this slam-fest, complete with aces, kills, digs and the dreaded hammer spike. Teamwork is crucial as well, since up to four players can compete at once. So hold nothing back, and bury your opponents in the sand. Because if your tandem wins three matches, you're qualified for the next big tournament, the next enormous challenge. But lose and you'll be just another couple of beach bums, washed-up like a pile of seaweed!***1player, 2 players, 3 players, or 4 players simultaneous in teams of 1 or 2 players each.

Kunio kun no Nekketsu Soccer League  Technos1993Like almost everything Technos has ever made, Kunio Kun Soccer is a tribute to violence. It's a sequel to World Cup Soccer, which is the American bastardization of another Kunio game.

Along with all the normal violence you'd come to expect from a Kunio sports game (namely, the ability to beat up other players to gain possession of the ball), this game offers some other interesting features. You have some weather effects, which make things more difficult by adding stuff like wind gusts and lightning strikes (which fry anyone who happens to be standing in a puddle). ALl the weather effects seem to tax the NES, however — thanks to good old slowdown. You also get to strategize, and tell the other players what to do, though most of them will ignore you and run in circles and pass the ball to absolutely no one.
It's an alright game, but there's probably much more soccer fun to be had elsewhere.

M.U.L.E.  Mindscape1990IRATA. A New World rich with opportunity. For wealth. And power. And you can become the richest, most powerful inhabitant of the newly discovered planet by owning the most land, mining the most precious metal, and supplying the most food and energy to all the peasants - otherwise known as your opponents. To win you need MULEs (Multiple Use Labor Elements), kind of mechanical donkeys which do your dirty work: growing food, mining, and producing energy. MULEs are critical, so you want to get as many as possible as cheaply as possible. And by the way, treachery is acceptable. So use it when needed. Then sit back and enjoy your wealth and power, OH MIGHTY RULER!***4 players take turns managing during their turn. But they simultaneously compete during auctions.

Madden NFL '99 Electronic Arts (EA Sports)1998Every year the bar is raised by a new installment in this series, and MADDEN '99 is no exception. You'll get realistic touches like receivers turning to look at the ball as they run downfield, and nifty moves like a quarterback's pump fake and a cornerback's bump-and-run. A choice of playing a day or night game and the ability to change the weather conditions allows you to play in an Arizona blizzard if you want to! Two-player action allows you take on a friend and find out who is creme de la football.***

Selecting 3 or 4 players verses mode can be a bit problematic. In fact, there is no [b]direct[/b] way to specify "[b]X[/b] players". You must select 1 or 2 as the number of trucks first (or just leave it at the default 1). Only then do you have the option of choosing 0 computer players (in a different menu). And only after choosing 0 computer players are you presented with the the ability to choose 3 or 4 trucks back in that menu) AND have all of them player controlled. This is why, despite owning this game for many years, I misidentified it as having a maximum of 2 simultaneous players.

Nekketsu Kakutou Densetsu  Technos1992Game description from [[link:http://www.romhacking.net Romhacking.net]]:

I've actually been fortunate enough to play this game on cart, with three other people with rahga's amazing four-player adapter. It's a Technos game, which means two things: one, all the characters look like they do in all the other Technos games, and two, it involves these characters beating the hell out of each other. This is why people love Technos games.

You can play two-on-two, or a four-player free-for-all, or a variety of other stuff. You play in a smallish arena, and beat each other up, and whoever's left standing wins. Totally fun! When you die you turn into food, which is really weird. So one of the other characters can actually eat your dead hamburger corpse, and gain back some life. The controls are pretty hard to get used to, but once you do you can really kick some ass.

Nekketsu Koukou Dodgeball Bu  Technos;CSG Imagesoft (Technos)1988In Super Dodge Ball, you take control of the USA Dodge Ball team and travel the world in an effort to become the best dodge ballers around. Step onto playing fields in countries all over the globe and use a combination of normal and super shots to help take down your opponents. But be careful, as some destinations have surfaces that can affect your footing. Manage the team as you think best, and swap out characters with other players that better fit your playing style. Two players can enjoy a head-to-head game or play a spirited round of Bean Ball, a six-character free-for-all. Three difficulty levels are available (Easy, Medium, and Hard); which one you choose will depend on your skill and courage. Do you have what it takes to lead Team USA to the ultimate prize and win the world championship of dodge ball?***developed by Technos Japan Corp.
NES-ND-USA, Super Dodge ball published by Sony Imagesoft (CSG Imagesoft Inc.) 1989-06 in the USA
Nekketsu Koukou Dodgeball Bu published by Technos Japan Corp.1988-07-26 in Japan
The title means "Nekketsu High School Dodgeball Club"

1 player, 2 players, 3 players or 4 players simultaneous.
The Japanese version used the Famicom Four-way Adapter to allow up to to 4 players. The NES Four Score and NES Satellite had not yet been released in the USA by June of 1989, so the NES version was only 2 players and did not include a 4 player option.
[Zerothis]***Part of that killer Technos triplet also consisting of River City Ransom and (four-player) Nintendo World Cup. A 'unique sports game,' six-character teams (three in the left half of the court and three surrounding the opponent's half) attempt to drain all the energy of the three in-court opposing characters (shown in the bars at the top of the screen), thereby winning the match. By running up to the line, the three in-court players can deliver special power throws, each player on the team having two different power throws (running and running-then-jumping).***I don't care what anyone says--this is the [i]best[/i] dodgeball game in existance. Period.

Even though Nintendo did not obtain the right to use NFL trademarks, they still based the game on real teams, in real cities, with the 1989 stats of real NFL players
[Zerothis]***"Ready! Hut hut hut..." Nintendo takes to the gridiron with the classic football powerhouse NES Play Action Football. Featuring a distinct overhead viewpoint that creates an almost 3-D field, the action is more simulation-based than many of the more arcade-based games of the time. Play through four 15-minute quarters (in accelerated time) and even substitute players when your first-stringers get tired. Want more options? Each of the eight available teams has multiple running/passing plays to choose from while on offense, as well as a wide selection of defensive schemes that can be run when you're on the other side of the ball. And in addition to viewing two full teams on the screen at once without any slowdown, you'll hear voice snippets at key points of the game. Line up, and see if you have what it takes to win the Power Bowl.
