FACT FILE:
ORIGINAL TITLE: Super Volley '94
SECONDARY TITLE: POWER SPIKES II
-- VIDEO SYSTEM -- 1994
Video System released the original Super Volleyball in 1989 as a jamma board.
The Sega Genesis and the Turbografx both received ports of this game in 1990. The
second title in the series, also on jamma, was called Super Volley '91 (aka Power
Spikes) in 1991. And in 1993, the Super NES saw the release of Hyper V-Ball. The
final game in the series was initially called Super Volley '94, but was quickly
changed to Power Spikes II.
The first advertisement and promo flyers as well as the initial run of MVS
cartridges which were manufactured actually went out with this earlier version of
the game. It is uncertain exactly when, but at some point in the process, they
changed out some of the games rom data. (specifically the P rom and the C roms
were changed)
The known differences are the obvious title screen change and subsequent attract
mode title logo of the game. In addition, it has a completely different introduction
sequence opening. (video and BGM are altered) And finally the league selection screen
has the men, women, and hyper choices in different order and with different icons.
