FIFA 98 came out for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1997, a time when the 16-bit console was nearing the end of its life. Published by EA Sports, this was one of the last major football games released for the SNES, arriving just as the industry was shifting toward newer, more powerful hardware. It felt like a late arrival, a final effort to deliver a comprehensive football experience on aging technology.

You control a team of eleven players, passing and shooting to score goals against the opposing side. The main objective is to win matches across various international tournaments and leagues. Signature mechanics include through passes to split the defense and sliding tackles to dispossess opponents; you can also execute chip shots and powerful headers. The pacing is generally quick, though the controls can feel a bit stiff compared to later titles, and the difficulty ramps up noticeably against stronger computer teams. Playing it feels like a direct, slightly rough translation of football into 16-bit form, where every successful goal is a small victory.
