Im 31 years old and was raised playing this with my dad. Love this game, just wish I had an opponent to play! Guess I just have to wait on my son to get old enough!
That's Ashman!! He runs the Tecmo Super Bowl Ashman's Ark-La-Tex Tournament Series FB Group and he is always looking for new players. He is fixing to have a tournamant and he is also trying to host a 28 Man Live In Person Season on one Tecmo Super Bowl game cartridge. He is always at these professionally run Retro World Series Tecmo Tournaments!
To those asking how the teams are decided: It's not like a fighting game where players have "mains." Instead, players start the game with a coin toss. Winner of the flip decides which teams will be in the game (say, Cowboys vs. Bills) and the loser gets to pick which team they'd rather play as. You can see how this would encourage people to pick balanced matchups. Otherwise everyone who proposes a Raiders matchup gives their opponent Bo Jackson, and nobody wants that.
Facts fam...montana was clutch..but LT and the giants defense could wreak havoc on any offense. ..i have snes version..still play it on da Regular...my fave team was the bills and oilers..cowboys , 49ers were the most balanced and best teams..i liked using avg teams and try to get them to the superbowl..Seahawks, patriots, and colts along with the bucs are the worst teams..
This game dominated my childhood. My buddy and I stayed up for like 2 straight days trying to win the Super Bowl with every team. Think we got about half way there lol. Fun video
This is the only sports game I like besides NBA Jam. Countless hours I played this gem. It is still FANTASTIC as sports games go. Not much going on besides the simple game play and a few cut scenes that still hold up to this day. So much fun.
Haven't played this in years, but as a kid, I'd have loved to play in a TSB tournament and i would have done very well it seems. My brother and I spent so much time playing this game. Cool to see again and thanks for the video.
@RetroWorldSeries that would be cool. I'd really need to practice to be beat anybody nowadays but maybe It will be fun just to play again. So you guys only do TSB tournaments or do you have a bunch of different game tourneys going?
For being these world class players I didn’t see any quick hitters. Dude with the cardinals let Swilling dictate the whole game. If he does pick your pass there is an opening to just hike the ball and throw it immediately where he doesn’t have time to cover and the computer controlled guys don’t either. That’s one way to slow down the ridiculously fast super defensive player on Tecmo bowl.
@RetroWorldSeries nice I might have to join one I'm decent at tecmo bowl. But I'd have to get used to not. Being able to dive in with the nose tackle on defense
My all-time favorite game i played as a kid. As a Cowboys fan and Emmit Smith being my favorite player,i played for hours and hours. Till i got yelled at, and it took away for a couple of weeks due to my grades dropping from not completing my homework...LMFAO 😂😂
Could someone elaborate on the team picks? I played a lot of og tecmo (not super) bowl and never competitively. Neither of these teams were anything special at that time, so it must come down to needing 1 or 2 players, right?
So one player flips a coin. The winner of the coin toss picks both teams. The idea being that the winner picks two equal teams. The loser of the coin toss either picks which team he wants or the player 1 controller. The weaker teams like these here require a higher level of skill to play with.
All you guys commenting how good you are at Tecmo need to play Ashman at one of these Tecmo Super Bowl Retro World Series Tournaments! I believe he has won the last two in DFW back to back!
@@RetroWorldSeries Yes but that didn't answer my question. My question is a follow up to that - how is the matchup chosen? Is it strictly the losers choice and they can choose any matchup at all?
@joshcoughx how is the matchup chosen? The coin flip winner picks the matchup. They literally choose the 2 teams. They try to find a balanced matchup. The coin flip chooses one of those 2 teams
No. There's a coin flip and the coin flip winner chooses a matchup of 2 teams. Coin flip losers get first choice in that matchup. The idea is to ensure a balanced matchup
@@RetroWorldSeries is there an _unspoken_ rule that coin flip winners _shouldn't_ select the Raiders since they'd just be giving their opponent an automatic W?
With the better teams you get a lot of cheese plays where the receivers will end up getting a pass in double coverage or the running backs blast through defenders. With the bad teams the cheese becomes all the turnovers due to fumbles and interceptions.
@@RetroWorldSeries Ok, first time watching content on the channel and first time knowing there were actual tournaments held for it. I was just curious. Didn't know if there were rules on which teams could be picked or the usual fact that people who specialize in a game happen to know the sleeper teams on it. LOL! Thanks for the reply! I appreciate it!
I like to use the Saints on this game I usually put Rueben mayes as the feature back and gil fenertry as a punt returner he's unstoppable Ironhead is a tight end
Back when Football was Football! Madden games coming out every year same old garbage just slightly better graphics. But look at a masterpiece like Tecmo Bowl and it takes you back 😊

I just sat here and watched two strangers play a whole game of Tecmo Bowl and loved it. They even used two super random teams, not the favorites.
Goes to bench Tim Rosenbauch, sees Tom Tupa, the punter?!🤣🤣
@@TheIamPC Danny White was as a punter/Qb ! I’m a Browns fan and I remember Tom scoring the 1st 2pt conversion in league hx
The most addictive game of all time. 😁
Loved this game as a kid. This brings back great memories.🔥
HAD NO CLUE THERE WAS A TOURNEY FOR THIS PRETTY COOL
Im 31 years old and was raised playing this with my dad. Love this game, just wish I had an opponent to play! Guess I just have to wait on my son to get old enough!
Just watched 2 vids. Was fun to see this old game. So many hours playing it. Thanks
The speed of the clock is the reason I have anxiety today.

Ah I see... was wondering how the heck did these two get to the finals with the Cards and Saints. Lol
Btw the 49ers were the best team in this game, by far
@@sumandsubstance7881 I was also wondering this as these teams are terrible in the game.

Coaching , solid ground games,and good defense...it fun to take the lesser teams to the SB..makes u have to coach ..thats the fun part
Nice win for Holy Cross legend Gil Fenerty.
This game dominated my childhood. My buddy and I stayed up for like 2 straight days trying to win the Super Bowl with every team. Think we got about half way there lol. Fun video
When my grandfather talks about the old country, this is what i imagine it looked like.
the fumbles are random,, you never know when they will cough it up so we always ran out of bounds because the Xtra yards weren't worth the risk
Ggs! One of my all time favorite games!
Really nice! Thanks for posting ❤
The "lean forward in your chair" intensity is displayed many times here!
Haha yes it was! Fumble-Mania!
5:29. Love that sound when a fumble happens.
This & Double dribble, Punch out man NES proved high replay value gameplay can be achieved without high end graphics

So much dad energy in this video lol
15:13 wait…you could make substitutions and move players between positions?!? My poor mother, I was a really dumb child. 😅
The sounds snd the music take me back
Fun to watch. Great game guys! Down to the last play.
Definitely one of the best videos games ever for the NES!! I loved all the tecmo bowl games!!
Fantastic completion by Chris @9:50
How dare you skip the halftime show!
Love this game as a bills fan I would play whole season trying to get the biggest craziest numbers of sacks picks and rushing and wr stats so awesome
Luv it man!!
The memories 😊
I was waiting for that big Ricky Proehl leaping catch to make an appearance. Went to that well many times myself! 😅
My Moms would call the original my babysitter lol, glued to the tv frfr
Awesome. I want to play!!
You should!
Haven't played this in years, but as a kid, I'd have loved to play in a TSB tournament and i would have done very well it seems. My brother and I spent so much time playing this game. Cool to see again and thanks for the video.
Start practicing again and come play!

Offense was poorly played i agree open recivers but switched off them
How do you not use Jonny Johnson?!?! Best player on that team
Nice juke Ashman on that 2nd score
5:25 always run out of bounds with a punt return... always
Need to be able to play this online
Where is this tournament?? I gotta get in on this, no doubt!!!!!😮❤
Retropalooza in Fort Worth

That was a good game!
I'm suprised Cleveland didn't show up.
Cards was terrified to throw the ball.
When is the next Tecmo Bowl or Super Tecmo Bowl tournament?
What are the rules for this tournament? Base playbook? Pre-selected teams?
They can customize playbook. Coin flip to determine matchup
Where is this tournament held at and how do you get involved in it
This was in Fort Worth at Retropalooza
@@RetroWorldSeriesok where will the next one be and how do you get in it
What a catch on 4th down!!!
Gotta be the nose tackle when using NO. Hes OP against any non shotgun play.
@@cpfarms8994 Using the NT and diving is illegal in tournament play
Lmaoooo @ that punt return fumble that must’ve been hilarious for the Cardinals player
The amount of fumbles I’ve seen in the first six minutes is crazy work!
The OST on here was phenomenal. But the Super Bowl tunes was sad. Made you wanna start the season all over again. Best game ever before Madden.
Best Game Ever Still! Dislike Madden Garbage!
I always liked being the Bengals, Bucs, and Browns. Occasionally, I used the Cards, because of Johnny Johnson.
Rng was brutal in this game. Gg guys
i assume the nose tackle dive is banned?
@@8BitChad great question
@@8BitChad it's gotta be.
I know in da Madison tourney its banned.but some tournaments allow players to use speedy wrs at RB on some teams
@gonesavage yeah i would figure if in the finals the guys aren't using it then it's banned
Just my opinion, but it's not as OP as people say. It's pretty OP against the computer though. There are ways to counter it as a human.
Crazy how one defensive player can play the run, QB spy, flats AND the deep ball at the same time. lol
My all-time favorite game i played as a kid. As a Cowboys fan and Emmit Smith being my favorite player,i played for hours and hours. Till i got yelled at, and it took away for a couple of weeks due to my grades dropping from not completing my homework...LMFAO 😂😂

They flip a coin. Coin flip winner chooses matchup. Coin flip loser gets first choice of team within the matchup.

Really?!?! How does one learn this power?
Just buy a game that has been uploaded with whatever years roster you're looking for that plays on NES. Ebay and Amazon normally have them.

No unspoken rule. I've seen players lose with the raiders. It's not a guaranteed win
Why dude replace Hayward with Fenerty?
The amount of fumbles in that first half was ridiculous! 😂 ...gotta keep running out of bounds at that point.
After that second fumble, I’d be utilizing the sidelines and pass plays more.
Good game 👍
I loved this game but the SNES one is my favorite!
Awesome!
I didn’t remember fumbling being so common in TSB
I do.
That's what happens when you play with very bad teams.

way to go, algorithm
Bro should have cutoff the outside lane 0:35
It is making me mad seeing these dudes not hitting these wide open receivers
Come play Ashman..
If you move craig Hayward as your kick returner, he becomes faster then bo jackson. You will return many kicks.
wtf with all the fumbles?
@@mattrider4936 tecmo super bowls glitch.
Imagine playing with New England in this? They are so bad I even had a hard time winning a game against the computer even in the preseason.
Craig Ironhead Hayward on this game you could not tackle. Used to play thisnat my friends house after school everytime
No Bo Jackson?
Buffalo Bills was my team
Why so many fumbles CRAZY
Is there a way to play someone for money? I am
In my 40s and vow to beat anyone on the planet.

Raiders must not be allowed
Is there no Bo Jackson Christian Okoye rule ? Gotta be 😅
