Watch Bo Jackson run circles around the defense before scoring a touchdown. Note that the team was the Patriots (the worst team in the game), still Bo Jackson was pretty much invincible in this 8-bit NES classic.
From Wikipedia:
In Tecmo Super Bowl, each team had roughly 30 different players. Each team had 11 players that played defense, a kicker, a punter, and seventeen offensive players. Due to the expanded rosters, a team would field 11 players at a time during actual game play.
In addition to using real teams and players, TSB incorporated the full-length 1991 NFL regular season schedule for the game. The playoff format, including the Super Bowl and the post-season Pro Bowl games, was also used.
Tecmo Super Bowl retained the arcade-style football gameplay of the original which included the ability to break tackles. However, the game added new features, such as statistics tracking that included All-Time NFL season records, expanded and editable playbooks, fumbles, and player injuries. As it had previously, the game used cutscenes for important events like touchdowns and halftime shows. Tecmo Super Bowl also added cutscenes when injuries or big plays occurred.
