🎮 Play Kick and Run (Japan) Online (NES)

Kick and Run (Japan) is a classic 1988 arcade-style soccer game developed by Taito, originally an arcade hit and ported to the Famicom Disk System. Playable on the NES, it offers fast-paced, accessible football action where teams compete in straightforward matches featuring passing, tackling, and shooting mechanics, as well as an exciting penalty shootout mode for tied games.

How to Play

The objective is to outscore the opposing team before the timer runs out. Control your players using the arrow keys (D-pad) to move around the pitch. On offense, use the Z and X keys (B and A buttons) to pass to a teammate or shoot the ball toward the goal. On defense, press Z or X to perform a sliding tackle to steal the ball. Press Enter (Start) to pause the game or Shift (Select) to choose game modes.

Tips

• Master the sliding tackle, but time it carefully to avoid leaving your defender out of position if you miss.
• Use quick passes to bypass the opponent’s defense rather than trying to dribble the ball down the entire field.
