"Flamenco strikes
back! Return of Don!! Ha ha! I am the indescribable Don Flamenco! The
most beautiful boxer, dancer, and lover in the video game world. No one can
resist my sweet charms!" |
 |
"I can resist you charms, loser of Spain man! I am Kin Korn Karn! Martial Art Master and Pro Wrestler Extra Ordinary! And we are review game now! A good time is you!
Feel the fury of suplex attack!" |
 |
"Si, Kin Korn, it would be muy bien for us to
review a fanciful game of delight! Shall we speak of Super Dodge
Ball?" |
 |
Ha ha! Idea is you! Begin! |
 |
You know it's going to be a good time when you are greeted
with with a "Hi!" from a cute little dodge ball player. This game takes us on
the adventures of Sam and his fellow
American dodge ballers as they destroy those dirty foreigners by throwing
volleyballs at them. John, Mike, Randy, Bill, and Steve make up the rest of
the American team, but they all look like freaky mutants. |
 |
 |
Your guys may be fat and funny looking, but
they can do some seriously cool things with volleyballs. Sometimes the ball
will disappear, and other times it will swerve around through imaginary
parking cones. One guy on the Japanese team just throws it up in the air and
it comes down on your head a few minutes later. This strange sport was
started in Iceland where penguins would throw small sea urchins at each
other. The penguins became very good, and are now hired by the Nintendo Super
Dodge Ball League as match officials. These versatile birds also act as the
cheerleaders and halftime entertainment for each match. The halftime shows
were taken out of the final version of the game because they were deemed too
sexy by the Nintendo Committee of Censorship (NCC). That is why the halftime
shows on the cartridge consisted of Iceland's own modern dance team of dodge
ballers Helgi, Knut, and Hans. |

Sam's adventures have taken him and his team to India
where they threw volleyballs at Rajiv, Swami, and Bata until they turned into
little angels. "It's unfortunate my opponents died," said Randy after their
victory. "I was hoping they would take me on an elephant ride."
Randy's wish did come true when the coach of the recently deceased
Indian team took them on an elephant tour of the beautiful Hadji Desert where he took
revenge for the death of his team by trampling Steve to death. Said Sam
about his friend and teammate, "We felt bad for Steve. He was a great
player. We would have retired his jersey if he had a number on
it." Randy could not be reached for comments, but his teammates
say he blames himself. |

The United States Dodge Ballers suffered again after defeating the Kenyan team.
Apparently outraged at the deaths of his fellow athletes (Yemi, Oba, and
Taha), Kenyan team member, Kiki, put a voodoo curse on the US players.
During their next exhibition match in Minnesota, Bill's head unexpetedly
exploded. While a janitor slowly mopped up the remains of the former dodge
ball star, the evil laugh of Kiki filled the stadium. The US team went on to
win that match without Bill's hyper galactic dodge ball strike, but there was
no celebratory party afterwards. The team somberly boarded their plane
for the long flight to their next match in Japan, nervous their heads would
explode at any second. |
 |
 |
Not only did they all survive the plane trip,
but no Japanese players were killed when the US team played
in Japan since the match was stopped short. The players all agreed to call
the game a draw so they could look up the skirts of a group of Japanese
school girls that were cheering from the stands. Mike and John were
arrested for sexual misconduct, but were released after Fuji, Sato, and Honda
used their Yakuza influence to convince the
Japanese police that John and Mike were merely filming a porno with the young
ladies. In thanks, the US team gave them two of the Japanese girls they had
hidden in their plane and John and Mike's video tape. And with a bow, they
were off to Russia for the final match. |
 |
 |
In Russia, the US team destroyed the commie bastard team of Boris, Ivan, and
Pavel. However, when they died, instead of turning into angels, they turned
into little commie pigs and ran around squeeling. Starving Russians swarmed
onto the floor for the juicy piglets, and a full scale riot ensued. The US
team narrowly escaped, but... they lost Mike. So Sam, John, and Randy took
the championship trophy and boarded their plane to return home. They had
seen a lot on their journey, but nothing could prepare them for what came
next. |
 |
 |
Their plane was shaken by some unseen force and they were
transported to a dark new world. It looked like they were still in Russia,
but they were face to face with their evil clones from another dimension!
Who knew the mystic forces that surrounded this mysterious sport of dodge
ball? Certainly not Randy. He shreiked and ran back to the plane where he
had to be comforted by one of the captive Japanese school girls. That left
only Sam and John to face the evil US team. The match went on for hours
until Sam finally killed his dark clone with a mega-oblong-frisbee
shaped-volleyball-toss to the back of the head. His evil eyes bugged out,
and Sam knew he had won. He said later, "That was really fucked
up." |

GAME HINTS:
1. You can pound the shit out of the supporting players that are on the
sidelines. Just throw the ball at them. It doesn't really hurt them, but
they fall down, and it's very satisfying.
2. Walk to the boundary line and turn around. The screen will scroll to the
left and one of your
teammates will frantically wave his arms to get you to pass to him. Now
laugh at him. |
 |
WHAT WE'VE LEARNED: We've learned a lot
about the mysterious forces that surround this lethal sport of dodge ball
and we've learned that even communists aren't as evil as the dark
interdimensional clones of the US team. But the most important thing we've
learned from Super Dodge Ball is to pull your bloomers up tight
and play every game like it's your last. It just might be. |

FINAL REVIEW:
GRAPHICS: 6. They are the same little fat guys from River City Ransom,
and Don Flamenco says they are not as sexy as he is. Even in their snug
little briefs. When I asked Kin Korn
Karn about the graphics, he told me something about tugboats in broken
English. I don't think he understood.
FUN: 10. This game is probably the most fun you can have with
electricity. Kin Korn Karn played it for 8 days straight without food or
water. Don Flamenco wrote a sonnet about it, but taste prohibits me from
putting it here.
NINTENDO LOGIC: 6. The magic throws helped give it an okay Nintendo
Logic Rating, but it's the evil clones from the other dimension that really
made it a true Nintendo game. |

"The Super of Dodge Ball! A winner is me! I can beat evil clones! There
is no doubt of my goodness! Favorite game? Yes. Favorite
yes." |
 |
"If only our English was good enough to tell them the great of the game! Only one of
my dances could be quite enough! Flamenco!" |
 |
"Perhaps this will tell you of my passion for this
game! Soy el rosa ruja de Espana!" |
 |
"Stop with the dance, I show you many trick of me!
Eat some kick, Ass Hole!" |
