I watched a bit of the anime, although I didn't play the NES game so I don't know if maybe the story in the NES game is less insane. But the story I rmember is that this soccer genius kid with superhuman soccer abilities thinks that the soccer ball (the concept, not the actual ball) is his best friend "heart of the cards" style because a soccer ball saved his life when he was like 2 years old by cushioning the blow when he got hit by a car (never mind that he got hit by a car because he bounced onto the road on that same soccer ball, I guess). And his biggest rival is some guy who can kick a soccer ball hard enough to make a hole on a wall. The story in the localization makes less sense than this? How? Are they all aliens?

>>385094912
nah, in the game it's just local tourney > nationals > world cup for both versions.

>The general theme of Mecarobot Golf is a near-futuristic golf course where humanoid robots are considered to be second-class citizens. A robot named Eagle is blocked from participating in the world's professional golfing tournaments due to discrimination. Eagle has the ability to play golf better than a human being but is denied the chance to do so.

CERO is much more strict than the ESRB is. The left image is A-OK for a 13+ age rating in America, but would probably get a 15+ in Japan, which would have been higher than the publisher wanted.
