Fifteen Years Before Women Appeared On FIFA ’16, There Was Mia Hamm Soccer 64

Posted Sep 25, 2015
FIFA '16 is far from the first women's soccer video game to hit the market. In 2000, the now-defunct publisher South Peak Interactive released Mia Hamm Soccer 64 for Nintendo 64. It was the first game to feature female athletes exclusively, without a single male player in the game. The game was released specifically in American markets, and sold a relatively high 42,886 copies. (VICE Sports)
