Sorry to dominate the comments, but if you don't mind just one more- Have you seen the way that Christian Okoye of the Chiefs is statted on TSB? Take Neal Anderson and Brad Muster, and combine them, and you had a monster of a RB. Jackson may have been the fastest, but Okoye, when played by a person, was a dominant back. When I was a 20-year-old and this game was out, I had a group of friends of mine that got together for four straight years on New Years' Eve and did an all-night Tecmo Bow War. Each of us picked a team, and we played an entire 16-week season with playoffs and Super Bowl, with the winner getting a small trophy that all of us kicked in to buy. The first year, my friend Jayson had the Kansas City Chiefs, and blew everyone apart by just pounding Okoye over and over. He could do wonders with Okoye, getting out of the way of tackles and barreling over others. He just wrecked me in the AFC Championship game (I had the Oilers), and won the whole thing that year. It was such a blast. Good times. I'll shut up now; thanks for sharing this.

Way back in the day I used to be Bo Jackson's waiter regularly at a restaurant in the west suburbs of Chicago. Nicest dude you ever met, very much to himself but always nice. Whenever he order the Ahi Tuna Salad, I modified it "Bo Knows" so the kitchen knew he liked his Tuna extra rare.

Yep you could do that in the original Tecmo Bowl for sure. It got a little tougher in TSB cause the plays were a little more complex but if you are good at the game you can contain Bo to some extent. Thanks for commenting.

I never got interested in these games as a kid but your videos always make me interested in playing games I never played. I might have to give this one a shot when I get a chance.👍

Mikey I would be shocked if you didn't love this game. Always appreciate you taking time to comment man.

I loved to be SF in the original tecmo bowl because they had THREE...count 'em THREE pass plays. One of the pass plays you could still complete every time even if your opponent picked the same play. You could hit that slant in pass 3 over and over and over until your brother threw the controller.

When Bo was "Excellent," his speed was actually 88.

Great video, never knew that. I didn't get too much into sports back in the day, but I def knew who Bo Jackson was ha. I just played this game for the super bowl but obviously we picked Patriots and Rams. I ended up winning as the Rams ha

Unfortunately the numbers presented are a decent amount off. I’ve reversed engineered the whole game. A 75 ms straight line 40 time takes 5.4 seconds. A 69 ms 40 takes 5.6 seconds. Bo would only be 3 yards ahead of Barry on a full 100 yd td run.

Wayne Haddix from the Buccaneers, John Offerdahl from the Dolphins, and Jerry Ball from the Lions are all hidden defensive gems in this game.

@giampaolofini1535

Жыл бұрын

Fun facts about all 3: Haddix is rated the best CB in the game due to his ranking being based on the '90 season in which he lead the league in INTs with 7. He never had another INT before or after that season and only played 42 games in the NFL. Offerdahl opened a bagel restaurant in the '90 season which later became a chain that would later merge with another group to become the nationwide chain Einstein's Bagels. Ball being a stud shouldn't be too surprising to those following NFL at the time, he was selected to the Pro Bowl in '89,'90 and '91 and was arguably the best DT in the league. He is one of the few players to have a rule change informally named after him. The "Jerry Ball Rule" outlawed chop blocks after he was injured by one.

Haddix was ALWAYS in the top five in interceptions at the end of every season

It was timing. Tecmo Bowl for the NES was supposedly based on the 1988 season, but it was clearly 1987 with Chicago still having Walter Payton (he retired after the 87 season) and Indianapolis, Denver, and Washington included as they all made the playoffs in the 87 season. Bo was insane his rookie year, with the signature game against the Seahawks on Monday Night Football. He was actually pretty pedestrian under Mike Shanahan in 1988 but was great against when Art Shell took over in 1989 and in 1990.

The Nintendo version is really good but it's nowhere near as good as the Super Nintendo version. Super Tecmo Bowl is a lot better with no screen flicker, you can do touchbacks, etc. It's the best version of Tecmo Bowl ever made. I can't even play the original anymore and the NES version of Tecmo SB is really primitive. They could have just updated the rosters on Super Tecmo Bowl and I would have continued to buy it. It's still one of my favorite games and I play it all the time.

This was great! Excellent breakdown. I always wondered what the official speed stats were. Bo was a beast no doubt, but I still always went with the 49ers with Montana to Rice and Roger Craig at running back. But the main reason was Ronnie Lott on defense. He had to be one of the fastest players on D along with LT on the Giants.

Riggan Rose Insert Steve Young and there is very little drop off going to Rice and Taylor.

How to "stop" Bo Jackson in Tecmo Super Bowl: Be the Philadelphia Eagles. Offense for offense. QB Eagles aka Randall Cunningham is a juggernaut, in his own right. Defense for the Eagles has Bob Golic, who can lurch and stop any run up the middle. Lurching is often deemed "illegal." If thats the case, simply use Reggie White as your defensive player.
