Tecmo Super Bowl. 1991. NES. So amazing it’ll explode the mind of any young football fan.
The gameplay was tremendous. The graphics cuts and video presentations were mind-boggling. The settings that actually allowed for season play were too much to handle.
Perhaps most crazy was the fact offensive substitutions were in the game. It wasn’t perfect, but it worked. Those familiar with the cartridge necessary to blow in (at times) understand how it worked. Most teams ran the standard 21 pro personnel (1 HB, 1 FB, 1 TE, 2 WR). Other teams actually showcased an 11 personnel base (1 HB, 1 TE, 3 WR).
