Nekketsu Koukou Dodgeball Bu is a classic, over-the-top sports game originally released for the Famicom (NES) in 1988 by Technos Japan. The game stars Kunio-kun and his high school dodgeball team as they compete against rival schools and eventually face off against powerful international opponents. Known for its distinctively aggressive take on the sport, it introduced the iconic power shots and stamina mechanics that helped define the Kunio-kun sports franchise.
How to Play
The objective is to eliminate the players on the opposing team’s inner court by hitting them with the dodgeball until their health is completely depleted. When a player loses all their health, they are knocked out of the game.
Controls:
- Move: Arrow keys (D-pad)
- Pass / Catch / Dodge: Z key (A button)
- Throw / Jump: X key (B button)
- Start: Enter
Double-tap left or right to dash. Pressing the throw button during a running dash or at the peak of a jump executes a devastating power shot, which is much harder for opponents to catch.
Tips
- Master the catch: Timing is crucial. Press the catch button just before an incoming ball hits your character to grab it safely and avoid taking damage.
- Know your team: Different players on your team have unique power shots and varying stats, such as throwing strength and stamina. Experiment to find the best attackers.
- Target weak opponents: Focus your attacks on enemies with low health to quickly eliminate them and gain a numerical advantage on the court.
