Tecmo Super Bowl

January 12th, 2008

A little flashback here with a couple Tecmo Super Bowl videos. One of the greatest games ever made IMO. At least one that was extremely popular at the time. Seeing these videos now makes you wonder what all the fuss was about. This game was actually quite advanced compared to most others out at the time for the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). You could play a season and it even recorded individual stats for the players. This was a huge deal back int he day. Games just didn’t have that capability really. Other than the Legend of Zelda being able to save on the game instead of using long ass passwords to continue your games, I can’t remember too many NES games that had that type of thing.

I figured this game would be online now and it is. You can play Tecmo Super Bowl online at the site in the link there. Before we ever heard about things like HDMI splitters we had real games :P.
