Shots of the New Tecmo Bowl for the DS

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the bo-knows-jack dept.

Kotaku has a bunch of screenshots of the new Tecmo Bowl game for the Nintendo DS. Purists shouldn't be disappointed with this game, as it seems (relatively) true to form. The main departure that seems to be drawing the ire of play testers is the absence of Bo. I guess he doesn't know football after all.

    This was the best football game ever. It really captured everything that's fun about the game

    I don't remember any "getting drunk in the parking lot" sequence in Tecmo bowl.

    I don't remember any "getting drunk in the parking lot" sequence in Tecmo bowl. I guess us BYU fans get a different perspective on the game. ;)

    Link to a vid of a couple plays being run. The audio sounds surprisingly good considering it's coming from a DS.

    Other than that, it looks exactly like Tecmo Bowl, bring it on!

    I wonder if I was the only one to go through and change every team's play book so that they ran the slowest forming plays. The end result was at the end of the season Jerry Ball from Detroit (team I played) ended up with 82 sacks in a season.

    The second-greatest thing? The addition of the phrase "We picked their play!" into football lingo.
