E308: Welcome to the Tecmo Bowl

Slim Down for Summer with That's Fit

E308: Welcome to the Tecmo Bowl

The whip-yielding soul suckers at Joystiq told us about some of Tecmo Bowl Kickoff's DS enhancements when they got their hands on the game, but this video reveals a few more things (and straight from producer Ryan Gilbo's mouth). We like how Tecmo really thought this remake through, and didn't just create a shabby port for the handheld. Not only does on-the-go Tecmo Bowl warm our arcade-loving hearts, but the customization options and super moves available only add a dash of excellence to the idea.

We're definitely going to take a look at Tecmo Bowl Kickoff this fall, but the question is -- which version? From all the nice perks we've been hearing about the DS title, that's probably the one we'll be behind.

Gotta love the retro graphics. This game is the main reason I'm hanging onto my DS. I've been considering trading it in, but I gotta have my Tecmo Bowl!
