Tecmo Bowl comes to Next Gen Console in 08

For those of you who grew up playing Tecmo Bowl on Nintendo will remember that it was the most enjoyable football game ever during that time. I remember creating my own team and would destroy other team by 50+ points. You only had like 4 plays to pick from unlike today’s football game. It was simple and fun to play. According to Joystiq, Tecmo Bowl will be coming back in full force in 2008.
Licenses? Who needs licenses? With newly revealed plans to revive the Tecmo Bowl franchise in 2008, Tecmo joins Visual Concepts in an attempt to prove that football games can be fun without NFL trademarks. Ironic — considering that the original Tecmo Bowl was the first sports game to popularize the use of official licenses (Tecmo Bowl was an NFLPA licensed game).
How Tecmo plans to flip the script is still a mystery us … and maybe even to Tecmo itself. Aside from a vague announcement during Tecmo’s ‘Night Out 07′ event, the developer has shown little more than a logo of the new Tecmo Bowl (not the one pictured above) and refuses to discuss the intended platform.
