Tecmo World Cup '90 is a football (soccer) arcade game released in 1989 by Tecmo. An unofficial bootleg of the game named Euro League featuring European club teams was also released. An unfaithful home version was developed by SIMS for the Sega Mega Drive renamed Tecmo World Cup '92 and released only in Japan.

Gameplay

The player can select one from eight available national teams in Tecmo World Cup '90. Japan were included despite them failing to qualify for the World Cup in 1990. The game was an unofficial release, giving them the chance to include the team to appease Japanese players.

The following teams were selectable.

•  Japan
•  United States
•  England
•  Argentina
•  Brazil
•  West Germany
•  Soviet Union
•  Italy

A later European revision of the game was released which included  France (also non-qualifiers) in place of the USA and  Spain in place of Japan.
