@ Casa de Nate Nate Nate.
Tecmo 1st as usual. Cotut style/best of 5.
Nate wins the coin toss, and wants to be the home team(Player 1) in games 1/3/5. Player @ home picks his team last.
(TBT) MIA 14
(Nate) @IND 23
Leary of whatever matchup Nate wants to throw at me, I select a fairly decent do all team in MIA. They truely can hang with NYG and SF fairly decent with that offense. Nate oots to blow me out of the water with the bad ass run game of IND.
Dickerosn kils me all game long with big runs on some cut backs and jukes. my defense is slow and gets blown up. He takes a 10-0 lead and i get a TD as time expires in the 1st half. I take a 14-10 lead, but a couple FG's puts him on top. A late Marino INT leads to IND getting 7 more in garbage time. Overall i played good D, but was outplayed by Dickerson running hard.
(Nate) SF 6
(TBT) @ CHI 35
I take da bears to counter the 9ers and know i'll still get NYG in the next game. Its a battle and 7-6 at the half. Singletary blocks a pat. In the 2nd half Montana crumbles beneath a bevy of playpicks, and INT's. CHI plays a very short field and clobbers the 9ers in a rare blowout.
(TBT) NYG 13
(Nate)@ LA 0
iT'S 0-0 at the half, but McKinkey gets a huge kick return and NYG gets the ball rolling with 10 points. A FG in garbage time balloons the score a little.
TBT leads 2-1
(Nate) DEN 6
(TBT) @ CLE 17
I storm out with a long drive for a TD. a 3 and out and i get a FG. A turnover leads to another score, and its 17-0 at the half. DEN takes controll of the 2nd half and dominates time of possession but can only get 2 fg's, and loses a game much closer than the score.
TBT wins 3-1.
Not a bad round of tecmo. My passing game and wr cycling is still rusty but its coming around.
and on to the RBI.
(TBT) DET 7
(Nate) SF 2
Nate has been 4-0 with SF, but gets pummeled by 2 Tramel homers.
(TBT) NY 3
(Nate) SF 6
Joyner gets a hold of Gooden ball and goes yard plating 3 as the deciding factor in the 6th.
(TBT) STL 4
(Nate) HOU 1
I believe i got most all my runs in the 1st 2 innings. Game over early basicaly.
(TBT) Bos 4
(Nate) Det 8
damn grandslam and some bad pitching gets me killed. i score 4 in the 6th to cut it to 7-4, but cant catch up.
(TBT) STL 7
(Nate) Cal 1
STL gets 20 hits. lots of dink and dunk shit.
(TBT) STL 1
(Nate) CAL 0
a no hitter! Tudor, Dayley, and Cox get it done. my 1st no-hitter ever. did allow 1 walk. pettis almost gets a hit up the middle for the last out.
(TBT) DET 9
(Nate) Bos 0
I give up 2 hits(3 actually but it was off a bop to the 2nd baseman).
I hit everything thrown up there.
(TBT) HOU 2
(Nate) MIN 0
2nd no hitter of the night. same as before 1 walk. Ryan, kefeld, and scott get er done. MIN strikes out 18 times. at this poimnt were thinking were too tired to play.
(TBT) DET 9
(Nate) SF 0
This confirms that its too late to play when i throw 4 straight shutouts. nate is beat, and shoulda stuck to the tecmo action. Overall i pitched like crap most of the night until nate became tired. im also finsing out that i just cant turn on my RBI game when needed unlike tecmo where I can almost always rise to the challenge. hopefully this changes.
Did you go Armas, Burkes, Hendu, Rice, Baylor? Just wondering because you had posted somthing about it earlier.
no. boggs still hit in the 3. Hendu for owen.
I didnt go old school subbing last night like i used to do.

Boggs always seems to whup ass for me(although I seldom use Bos anymore for some reason)
boggs is a decent singles hitter for me. not much for gappers or homers. he fits a need in that line-up though.
Hey TBT. you play much Tecmo Super bowl. If so whats tour take on some of the Roms floating around?
http://www.famssu.com/tecmo/
http://www.knobbe.org/mx/index.php
also do you know of any edits to original Tecmo Bowl???
I play no tecmo super bowl. I dont even own that game.
as for edits for the original, there are a few around on knobbe.org. some guy made 3 roms covering all the teams from the 2004 season. never played them though.
i need to start looking into editting though. we tecmo'ers here wish to have a league that has both the USA teams, and the Japan version teams.
TBT doesn't know a good game when he sees one.. . .. TSB is the shizzle.
I do think TSB is a good game and all, but my alliances will always lie with the original.
i like the bare bones stripped down play of the original tecmo.
Also, I am the Tecmo Bowl Terror, not the tecmo superbowl terror.
you're afraid of the stats, right?
ssshhhhhhh. those things are so disturbing. ive had nightmares.....woke up naked in the street in front of my house with knife in my hand. damn you rushing and passing yards....damn you!
Old school(I hate that phrase) Tecmo Bowl is better. You ever play online? Let me know, I'd like to give it a shot even though you'll no doubt beat my ass.
ive played some rbi online vs the computer. something was wrong with my damn controller though, and i had to use the key pad. it tested out ok, but then when i went to use it to play it never worked. im retarded.
once i figger that out, i'll take on all challengers. and dodge chargers too.
I dont wanna sound like whitedoodie but I too embarress my freinds(who will no longer play me, except on Super), and I'd just like to play a good game. See if you can straighten out your controller issues(using the keypad does blow) and we'll give it a shot
Just a fair warning to TBT, Jed Clampett has NEVER lost a 7 game series.
LoL......No, actually I've lost dozen of tournaments
lost dozens of tournaments? that doesnt sound good at all.
on a side note, the TSB crew who had a national tourney this past fall in minneapolis had some weird set up where you basically only got 1 game i believe per round in the tourney. no best of 3 whatever, and i think they also had some jacked up way or determining who got what teams. it wasnt set up like the cotut thats for sure. i was gonna attend to watch(and maybe participate/get killed at TSB), but a schedule change forced me out.

mucho bueno now
i think i can fairly estimate that i became a bonafide great tecmo player somewhere in the year previous to when TSB was released.
i had a buddy that would stomp the piss outta us. over and over and over. 45-0, 38-0, 35-3. insulting type scores like that. he could run up the score and there was nothing we could do about it on his good days.
on occasion with a superpower team and him having a crap team we'd get a win by a small margin or play a close game and lose late. My other friends bailed on playing that guy, but i stuck with it. eventualy i got so i could win at least 5 or 6 of 10 regularily. my other buddies were astonished. i guess i paid my due going up against a wrecking ball. had he not been so much better than us, i might not have been motivated so much to be great at that game.
anyways that guy was great friend of mine, and got shot and killed on the night the pats and panthers played in the superbowl. his name is on the base of the huge ass tecmo trophy we play for every year. shooty's thread about a good friend of his reminded me of bryan. Bryan Hansen is solely responsible for my over the top obsession with tecmo bowl. Bryan was much more popular than me in school and he was tied into the major social pipeline and everything. but he never would ditch me to go hang with the "in crowd" or anything like that. He was a pretty kick ass human being. i wish i coulda told him just once how much i appreciated his friendship. i know he knew, but words can so much power.
A bunch of my fieinds and I all lived in the same apartment complex when I was a kid. We all played Nintendo constantly, having round-robins and such. We played RBI, Tecmo, and Super Tecmo mostly and also Bases Loaded(although I'm not a big fan of it now). It's weird your story so much resembles mine. One of the guys who we played with every day died in a freak accident in 96. That is kind of why we all still meet up and play to this day.
i think the moral of the story is not to play nintendo with your friends.
That's pretty good. Do you write your own material?
hopefuly nate doesnt catch that heart attack thats been going around.
