Pleasure Goal: 5 on 5 Mini Soccer, also known simply as Futsal (フットサル) is a futsal game developed by Saurus and released in 1996 for the Neo Geo and later ported to the Neo Geo CD.

Gameplay[]

Plasure Goal follows simple futsal rules, with small teams of four field players each and 16 different teams to choose from. Gameplay is similar to arcade football titles such as Super Sidekicks but much faster paced due to the smaller enclosed fields and reduced teams. There are multiple stadiums to choose from, each with their own characteristics. There are 16 teams available to choose from before starting, each one representing their country.

Development & Release[]

Pleasure Goal: 5 on 5 Mini Soccer was created by most of the same team that would later work on future projects at Saurus such as Shock Troopers, with Nobuyuki Tanaka acting as producer. Kenji Ishimoto served as designer while Akio Ooi, Koji Kawakubo and S. Yamane were involved as programmers. Designers J. Mikami, Kiyoshi Matsueda, Kurara Kiri, Naohide Nakagawa, "Suitanakano", Sumire Azuma, Yuko Hara and Yuri Tachikawa were also responsible for the artwork. Sound was handled by Kazuhiko Oshikiri and Sin Chan. The game was first released by SNK for both Neo Geo MVS and Neo Geo CD on July 19, 1996. Prior to launch, the title first showcased to the public at the 1996 AOU Show. The Japanese CD release has since become one of the more expensive titles on the platform, with copies of the port fetching over US$400 on the secondary video game collecting market. It has since been re-releases in recent years on digital distribution platforms such as the Nintendo eShop, PlayStation Network and Xbox Live.

Critical Reception[]

French magazine Player One gave Pleasure Goal: 5 on 5 Mini Soccer a positive outlook. Chris Moyse of Destructoid noted Pleasure Goal: 5 on 5 Mini Soccer's pacing and style similar to that of early International Superstar Soccer on both Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Sega Genesis, while regarding its "techno" music to be amusing.
