A transitional FIFA Soccer 96 on SNES, timidly easing into the traditional view. Decent, nothing more.

Description
Official FIFA football simulation from the 1995 season featuring European clubs and national teams. Published by EA Sports, released in Europe in 1995. Major league clubs and national teams, championship mode and improved ball physics. The 1996 edition of the FIFA franchise on Super Nintendo.
FIFA Soccer 96 tentatively begins the shift from the isometric view toward a more classic perspective, with slightly more believable ball physics. On Super Nintendo the hardware shows its limits against a series already taking off on 32-bit consoles. The result is decent, playable, but transitional and without real character. It mainly appeals to those curious about FIFA's rapid mid-90s evolution, rather than players after a genuinely satisfying match of football today.
