I have never enjoyed soccer. I don't watch it on television when its on (is it on?) and I don't play the games. However, I know that all of Europe, South America and Asia can't be wrong. Blood feuds have spilled out of soccer matches and differing loyalties have led to devastating casualties. Its a passion but a passion that I cannot, will not share. When a soccer game comes out for any console, we order them because we have a good sized customer base in the USA and Europe who will purchase it. In the early days of NCS, I would sometimes speak to a German customer about soccer and why it was so great. He likened it to a sport of wills, a sport that likened itself to the storming of a stronghold with a lone defender and soldiers on the battlefield rallying to attack and defend. To the victor, the spoils of war. In this case, one step closer to the World Cup. To the defeated, wrenching humilation and disdain. In some instances, threats of death to the players. Basically, a primal drama that is played out on the fields of modern society. I accepted his reasoning...but I still don't like soccer.
