Cool. I like what they did to update it yet keep the same classic gameplay.

Original Game: Tecmo Super Bowl (1991, NES)
Developer: Tecmo
Remake: Tecmo Bowl Throwback (2010, XBLA)
Developer: Southend Interactive/Tecmo
Tecmo Bowl is a classic on the NES. Its sequel, Tecmo Super Bowl, added extra teams, more plays, and more game options. It was the superior game, but the first game was the one which was often remembered by gamers. After two decades, Tecmo brings the series back and bases their remake on Tecmo Super Bowl. It's a top-down arcade-style football game in which you compete with teams around the world to become the International Tecom Bowl Champion (which doesn't even make sense since this version of football is played only in the USA). The game retains the same feel but with improved graphics and sound. You still have those eight plays to choose from. There's also a player and team name editor, online play, season play for up to three seasons, and the ability to switch between 3D and 2D graphics with the press of a button. It's still simple Tecmo Bowl and it's still a lot of fun.
