By today's standards, Tecmo Super Bowl is a bad game: it's hampered by few playing options, poor sprite animation, and a highly limited playbook.  On the other hand, Tecmo Super Bowl was probably the best arcade-style football game  around until NFL Blitz:  up to two people could pick up the title and play a quick, high scoring game without ever needing to know anything more about football than "get to the other side of the field" and "you can run or throw the ball."  Its simplicity is its greatest strength, and to this day few sports games can match Tecmo Super Bowl in its combination of accessibility and fun.
