Hello everyone and welcome to the latest installment of the weekly contests!  Are you guys ready for some football?  You better be because this week's game is going to be an NES football classic and a first time game for the weekly contests.  Get ready for some Tecmo Super Bowl!  Here are the rules:

  • 1 player only
  • Play a Preseason game.  You must play a complete game
  • Select Washington as your team
  • Select Buffalo as the computer’s team
  • You must play with the default rosters for each team.  You may not swap out any players on either team.  There may not be any injured players on either team prior to the start of the game (If a player is injured in Regular Season mode, he will be injured in Preseason mode)
  • You may not change any of the plays or create your own.  You must use the default plays given to you at the start of the game
  • Nose dive tackling is not allowed.  Anyone suspected of using it will have their score disqualified
  • Take you picture on the final results screen (the screen that shows all the game stats)
  • Your score will be the differential between your score and the computer’s score
  • Ex: You 35 CPU 14 = score of 21
  • Ex: You 14 CPU 35 = score of -21
  • In the event of a tie, the greater number of rushing yards will break the tie
  • Greatest differential between your score and the computer wins.  A positive score takes preference over a negative score
  • GENRE: Sports



The contest ends Sunday, 3/2/14 at 11 PM NA time.  Your user name MUST be in the picture for your score to be valid.  The entire TV screen, or computer monitor if you are playing on an emulator, MUST be in the picture for the score to be valid.  No partial screenshots will be considered or accepted.  No screenshots by hitting "print screen" on a computer will be allowed.  You must take a picture of your computer monitor.  There may be instances where this will be acceptable, but it will be at the discretion of myself and the contest organizers.  Also, the use of turbo controllers is forbidden, as well as any cheat codes, Game Genies, or save states if playing on an emulator.  Also, we will only be using NTSC systems for the contests.  The use of PAL systems will NOT be allowed.  Good luck everyone and have fun

My NES collection count: 757 games (16 to go for a full set)

Update: 49. Made some costly defense errors picking the wrong play and not tackling Thurmon Thomas but its a good start. I'll definately try to improve this score if I have sometime this week.

Lord is passing random or what? I have a receiver at the top of the screen and press pass and rypien throws out of bounds on the bottom. I also would like to see a no glitching rule.

I can't deal with Mark Rypien. He has to be the worst QB in the entire game. His ability to consistently over and underthrow receivers is absolutely inexcusable....especially since the Redskins won the Super Bowl in 1991. What makes matters worse is that Buffalo is probably the cheapest team in the whole game. Before this started I figured I'd have a good chance at top ten finish,but now I have no idea since the QB I'm using undermines everything I'm trying to do.

Yes I agree I think Washington is probably the worst team you could have to play with Rypien throiws the ball everywhere except to his receivers lol

i suggested also that the tie breaker be rushing yards instead of passing yards because you have no incentive to run the ball otherwise.

if 2 players win by 50 points and one player has 100 rushing yds and the other has 8 yds. the 100 yd rusher is the bigger acomnplishment

i hope he will that is why i suggested it so early. i am glad i got the first post and it was mentioned

This is from the northeast tecmo association tournament rules:

Lurching: Lurching is not allowed (dive tackling over the line of scrimmage with a DL). DL use is allowed, but you must either go outside the Offensive Tackle or grapple an OL to rush

Still don't know what the glitch is...someone wanna explain so I know what not to do when I fire this up? Never played it before...

"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount?  At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."
