Cinematic Soccer

This term refers to the style of the gameplay. Rather than being a straight forward soccer sim. Many of the Captain Tsubasa games featured fully animated cut scenes throughout the match leaving the player to make key strategic decisions and then watch the outcome.

Translations

Arabic translation

Circa 1994-1995, the game was unofficially translated and bootlegged into Arabic as "Captain Majed" (Arabic: الكابتن ماجد‎), based on the Arabic dub of the anime, since the show was extremely successful in the Arab world.

English translation

In 2007, hayabusakun released a fan translation as an IPS patch for the Japanese ROM.
