Kings of the Beach MS-DOS and NES Comparison

 KING OF THE BEACH MS-DOS 
and NES COMPARISON

A Sports Video Game made by Electronic Arts before there was EA Sports.

First released in 1988 for (Microsoft PC) MS-DOS and 1989 for Nintendo NES (aka Nintendo Entertainment System) made by Electronic Arts (EA) and Konami (under the Ultra Games label) in 1990.

Electronic Arts I (you) know made games under EA Games/EA Sports/EA:

EA GAMES:

Harry Potter and the Philosopher/Sorcerer's Stone:

Released in 2001 for Sony PlayStation (PS1/PSX), Microsoft PC, Mac, Nintendo Game Boy Color (GBC) and Game Boy Advance (GBA).

I played the PC version when I was a kid (such good childhood memories back then either Retro or Nostalgia).

EA SPORTS:

2002 FIFA World Cup (for 2002 FIFA World Cup 

Korea Japan):

Released in 2002 for Sony PlayStation (PS1/PSX) and Playstation 2 (PS2), Microsoft PC and Xbox, Nintendo GameCube (GC).

This was one of my Dad's favorite(?) PC game around the 2000s, because he loves soccer or football [UK] as a sport, he plays the joystick instead of a keyboard.

EA's logo now in 2020.

The playable characters in the video are based on real life famous beach volleyball players: Sinjin Smith and Randy Stoklos.

PASSWORD BABES/ONE PIECE SWIMSUITS vs. BIKINIS (NES version) 

SWIMSUIT #1:

Did You Know?: That the one piece swimsuit and bikini models (for passwords) in the Nintendo NES are based on the same model.

SWIMSUIT #2:

This one is my least favorite, I think?

(***)

And also Did You Know?: The swimsuit password babes are based on real life models on magazines or catalogs like the ones in the photo below (example: the model for the the face in the left and the model from the right for pose), I think? But I'm not sure because there's that say it's on '92 or something, so what do you think?
