Isaki Shuugorou no Keiba Hisshou Gaku (Japan)

Isaki Shuugorou no Keiba Hisshou Gaku is a unique title on the NES console, focusing not on direct horse control but rather on horse racing simulation and betting strategy. Players will immerse themselves in the world of horse racing, where the main goal is to learn and apply tactics to win bets.

At the start of the game, players are introduced to the basic principles of horse racing and betting. The game provides a large amount of data and information about the horses, from their strength parameters and recent form to the jockeys' statistics. Players need to carefully study these factors, as well as consider track conditions, weather, and odds to make the smartest betting decisions.

In each race, players will have the opportunity to analyze the contenders, comparing the strengths and weaknesses of each horse. Once a choice has been made, you will place a bet on the horse you believe will finish first or achieve the desired position. The interesting part is that you don't just bet randomly; you must base your decisions on deep analysis. The game may provide tips or "advice" from the character Isaki Shuugorou, who is considered an expert in this field, helping players improve their prediction skills.

After placing your bets, the race will unfold, and players will observe the results to see if their predictions were accurate. If you win, you will receive prize money and can continue to participate in other races with a larger bankroll. The ultimate goal is to accumulate a significant amount of money and become a master of horse race prediction. The game emphasizes strategic thinking and data analysis capabilities rather than quick reflexes, offering a different experience compared to typical racing games.
