Question about "mirrored" defense


Goose

Recommended Posts

Hi all,


 


I discovered this gem not long ago and after having read all the great guides, FAQs etc. I stumbled over something that has me puzzled. In-game I try to exploit weaker players or sides in the opposing teams defense by looking at the “DL Starters”-screen prior to the game and then avoid strong players or group of players. My question is, is the “DL starters”-screen mirrored?


 


I got a couple of screen grabs and as you can see in the example “#32 Stinson” on the Bears is a RCB however he is on the left hand side in-game.

Is this intentional and the way you are supposed to read the defensive lineup in football? Even if you read “right” as the right-side seen from the attacking teams perspective the “DL Starters”-screen still does make any sense.


 


(tried to search the forum but came up blank).


 


Thanks for helping out.

 It is mirrored... intentionally.. for purposes of how the NES and game is designed.   Everything is correct ONLY from the ( player 1's)  perspective only. Stinson here is the RCB since he is on the offenses right side.


 


And the run and pass play names likewise only make sense from the player one perspective. 


 


Everything is mirrored for player 2.
