World Soccer

World Soccer, known as Great Soccer in the US and Super Futebol in Brazil, is a sports game developed and published by Sega for the Sega Master System.

The game was rereleased in Japan a year later under the name Sports Pad Soccer, which was bundled with the Sega Sports Pad.

The Sega Master System (1985/1986) was Sega's answer to the NES and, while it lost the console war in North America, became genuinely dominant in markets like Brazil and parts of Europe. That regional split matters for collectors: PAL and Brazilian-market cartridges can differ meaningfully in scarcity and pricing from their North American counterparts for the same title.

Gamevaro tracks World Soccer for Sega Master System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding World Soccer to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This SMS release dates back to 1985.

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for World Soccer, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Sega Master System titles.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
