ShareThisTecmo Super Bowl NFC Playoff Game of the Week: Eagles at Cowboys
Courtesy of Matt Knobbe and the Tecmo Super Bowl Repository, here's your Tecmo Super Bowl NFC Game of the Week for the Wild Card Round, featuring the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles. The highlights:
(How did we do this? Matt and the other dedicated folks at the Knobbe.org message board have spent a lot of time over the years updating this classic Nintendo football game, including the introduction of a 32-team ROM a few seasons ago. Sounds complicated, but don't worry, it's easy for you to enjoy the fruits of their labor: just get yourself an NES emulator, download the 2009 version of Tecmo here, and play to your heart's content. And be sure to check back at Matt's site for roster updates and more Tecmo-related goodness all season long.)

Wow. I hope the real game is that good.
I have to say, I was pretty impressed by the ending. In real time, I looked up only at the end, and caught the last few minutes. When the last play happened, I literally stood up and shouted, "EAGLES WIN!!! EAGLES WIN!!!" as though it were real. It's amazing how any representation of football can get us worked up.
One comment: Romo doesn't throw picks like that anymore, hasn't anyone (the guys over at Knobbe.org message board haven't, obviously) noticed this yet?? Oh well, from the looks of things they probably didn't update rosters through the season, they had Nick Folk still kicking for us. Here am I complaining, when this is my favorite football video game of all-time and I literally used to daydream about exactly what these guys are doing now, taking this game and updating it with modern rosters. Rock on knobbe-sters! And it was quite a finish, the music and everything
