NASL Soccer is a 1980 Intellivision two-player game based on the North American Soccer League (1968–1984). Mattel released an Atari 2600 version of the game under its M Network label as International Soccer in 1982.[3]
Reception
Video magazine's "1982 Guide to Electronic Games" found the game gameplay and implementation (its three-quarter perspective and scrolling playfield) "fascinating even to those who don't care for the real sport".[4]: 53 NASL Soccer won the 1981 Arcade Awards (1980) for Best Sport Game.
