Template:GameInfoboxSuper Sidekicks, known in Japan as Template:Nihongo, is a football game developed and published by SNK in 1992. It's the first SNK football game released for the Neo Geo platform and the first game in the Super Sidekicks series.

The game offers a choice of 12 international teams, each with their own player positioning. Each team also has an "Ace" player with better stats. While in possession of the ball the player can pass and shoot. While on defense shoot is replaced with a sliding tackle used to retrieve the ball, although being too rough will result in a foul. Throw-in, corner kicks, and penalty kicks are all implemented just as in the actual game of soccer. Games either last for two three minute matches (in SNK Cup mode), or for one game (in VS mode). 

As part of ACA Neo Geo, the game was released in July 27, 2017 for PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.
