The soccer video game, Winning Eleven, might be one of the most popular video games among teenagers in Asia. The soccer game is already in its 10th edition and features some of the most realistic gameplay. For the 2008 “Challenge to Christiano Ronaldo” edition of Winning Eleven, game makers Konami has teamed up with Japanese fashion label Soph. for a limited edition jacket.
