I'm looking for help with a rather specialist subject, which I suspect is probably going to be more one for the Japanese collectors and hardcore sports enthusiasts...
First of all, does anyone know if this is a complete list of the Saturn-era Victory Goal/Worldwide Soccer games available internationally:
J. League Victory Goal
Sega International Victory Goal (US title: Worldwide Soccer - Sega International Victory Goal Edition)
J. League Victory Goal '96
Victory Goal Worldwide Edition (international title: Sega Worldwide Soccer '97)
J. League Victory Goal '97
Sega Worldwide Soccer '98 (EU title: SWWS '98: Club Edition)
World Cup '98 France ~Road To Win~
Become The Coach For The National Team! Soccer RPG
Also, could anyone confirm whether or not the "Let's Build A Pro J. League Soccer Club" games were also part of the same VGoal/WWS series? I've heard these were produced by Team Vega, though they use an upgraded version of (original developer) Team Aquila's graphics engine. I believe Vega was responsible for the Let's Build A Pro Baseball Team! games as well.
Either way, I've been looking to compile as much information about these as possible for ages now. Any help would be very much appreciated.

I know very little about the series, the only thing I can contribute is that Victory Goal Worldwide Edition is indeed SWWS '97 with a few changes, the most noticeable being the presence of a SEGA Ranking option in the main menu, that tracks the trophies (WL, WWC and CT) won by each of the teams and ranks them accordingly. It's interesting in that it does that "real-time", by which I mean it does not wait until the the competition is over before updating the ranking, so if you're halfway through a League and Germany is first and El Salvador is last, and update the ranking Germany will move a few spots up while El Salvador will do the inverse. I don't know why they got rid of that for the PAL release, perhaps the JP game came out later and it was actually an addition.
