Pleasure Goal: 5 on 5 Mini Soccer

Pleasure Goal: 5 on 5 Mini Soccer is a 1996 futsal arcade video game developed by Saurus and published by SNK. In the game, players compete against either AI-controlled opponents or other players in matches across various stadiums. The title was created by most of the same team that would later work on future projects at Saurus such as Shock Troopers. Though first launched for Neo Geo MVS, it was later released for Neo Geo CD and has since been re-released through download services on various consoles.

Gameplay
Pleasure Goal: 5 on 5 Mini Soccer is a futsal game played from an top-down perspective in a two-dimensional environment with pre-rendered sprites. Although it follows the same gameplay as with other soccer titles at the time and most of the sport's rules are present as well, the game opts for a more arcade-styled and faster-paced approach of the sport, instead of being a full simulation. There are multiple stadiums to choose from, each with their own characteristics. There are 16 teams available to choose from before starting, each one representing their country.

Development and release
Pleasure Goal: 5 on 5 Mini Soccer was created by most of the same team that would later work on future projects at Saurus such as Shock Troopers, with Nobuyuki Tanaka acting as producer.

Mikami, Kiyoshi Matsueda, Kurara Kiri, Naohide Nakagawa, "Suitanakano", Sumire Azuma, Yuko Hara and Yuri Tachikawa were also responsible for the artwork. Sound was handled by Kazuhiko Oshikiri and Sin Chan. The game was first released by SNK for both Neo Geo MVS and Neo Geo CD on July 19, 1996. Prior to launch, the title first showcased to the public at the 1996 AOU Show.

Reception
