Great game! Purchased it while it was on sale for $23
Whilst it remains the best football sim on a handheld , it smacks again of EA being lazy with the FIFA on Nintendo consoles. There is very little new content and I fully expect the 20 version to have nothing new at all. Back to the same old Poor treatment of Nintendo gamers by EA.
