Olivetti Europeo Italia90

Floppy Disk 5.25" Olivetti - Italia '90 | eBay

Obscure software from italian €b@y. I've seen these floppies floating around many times at different preservation quality and price. I cannot dump this because I don't own pc and 5.25 drive.
Maybe totaldoscollection or similar already owns this? Or some other oldgames member who wants to get and dump this?

Italia 90 (LOL)
"The calendar, the matches, the teams. A program to follow in real time or to play in advance the 1990 World Cup. Plus winners and curiosities from the past."

 

@myloch, that's interesting!
It seems that's something different from "Italy '90" by Simulmondo?
Italy '90 Soccer (1989, DOS)

 

Yeah, my spider senses say this is more like a database, like a primitive Pc Fútbol or Football manager.

 

Hmm. Could it be this game indeed?
After all, it was Olivetti that had licensed the creation of the game to Virgin/Mastertronic: it could well then re-distribute the game.

@myloch, you know what? It now seems to me that this is not a game at all!
Just a "Accessorio Originale Olivetti" - an empty floppy disk with some Olivetti label and an advertisement for a mundial.
Olivetti was the sponsor of those soccer games - so it is just some accessories with logos.

 

I've never seen a "description of the program" printed on a floppy disk envelope
The description is usually placed on the disk label (especially if there is no box or some other kind of a cover), and envelopes have just some generic text or logo.

 

On the back of the floppy sleeve there are the system requirements and it explains how to run the program "type mondiali and then push return key and have fun". So I don't think it's just an advertisement on an empty disk

 

the "play in advance" part still leaves me puzzled if there is some sort of football match simulation inside.

 

I will investigate more and if it deserves I will be glad to donate some bucks to somebody who can dump it.

 

@myloch, OK, let's try to find something more about it!
If you are willing to donate like 20 euros I will pay for the shipping and try to dump it (if there is something on the disk hopefully).

 

So, here is what @flyers80 told me:
