It was a video game that came out in 1991 for the original Nintendo Entertainment System. It had real NFL teams and rosters, and was the first video game that kept stats of your players' performance throughout the season.

I was 12 when it came out, so I was in prime video-game mode, and grew up playing this game. I think the same can be said for lots of the guys here on the Warpath. The game has a bit of a cult following. Madden is the NFL video game that's talked about a ton these days, and it's truly great. But this Tecmo Super Bowl game preceded Madden. Game-play was very simple, but crazy fun.

So Matty hooked us up with a way to play the game against each other, online, using our PCs instead of the Nintendo & TV.

The coolest thing? That 1991 season was the year the Skins won the SB, of course. So the 1991 roster is forever memorialized within the game. Want to relive Rypien to Clark, Monk, and Sanders? Best way is through this game.

Very cool, but I feel old now.. ;-)

Re: Tournament 1.0 - Team Draft Results & Schedule
 

Man I was only 2 when this game came out

Re: Tournament 1.0 - Team Draft Results & Schedule
 

Any updates? I know SS and I are trying to get our game in tonight...

the first madden game was released in 1989

Re: Tournament 1.0 - Team Draft Results & Schedule
 

Well I just got smoked by BDBohnzie. First game was U-G-L-Y Ugly. And I ain't got no alibi. I could have scored 50 more points...and still lost

Second game was close until two big plays in the final two minutes

Good job BD. As promised, you are now sponsoring me for the following week.

Re: Tournament 1.0 - Team Draft Results & Schedule
 

you guys still play super tecmo on the nes or what? I'd love to find a way to play that football game again. If you were the 49ers montana to rice was a completion 9 out of 10 times.

I'd imagine it's a bad omen when the first play of the game is a safety, after it froze for like 10 seconds...then following the kickoff, the next play goes for about 60 yards for a score...

But the great thing about the game is the learning curve is nil, and your game ultimately improved from the 1st game to the next. I was just fortunate to hunker down and play some D in the 2nd half of the 2nd game. You had the lead going into the 4th, take away those 2 big plays and I'm sunk.

I totally forgot how gadawful the Giants playbook was...I have to remember to switch the plays beforehand.

It sucked big time when the game froze on the first play of the game. I was just sitting there staring at my QB standing in his own end zone for what felt like an eternity.

Re: Tournament 1.0 - Team Draft Results & Schedule
 

So, Smoot and I are the only ones to have played yet?

I guess this was a bust of Shuler proportions.

Re: Tournament 1.0 - Team Draft Results & Schedule
 

Maybe we should set this up the same way we do live drafts for fantasy football. We set up a time, let's say Mondays night at 9p (as an example) where everyone playing in this league just logs on and plays. If you can't join then, you can't play.

Re: Tournament 1.0 - Team Draft Results & Schedule
 

Yeah good idea, back to the drawing board I guess

Re: Tournament 1.0 - Team Draft Results & Schedule
 

Damn. I guess I won the whole cancelled enchilada then ;)
