Favorite Other NES Sports Games

[Baines]

Of course I'm a fan of Tecmo Bowl and Tecmo Super Bowl but I never really liked any other football games.   NES Play Action Football had the potential to be good but was ruined by the fact that it has the slowest gameplay in the history of video games.  John Elway's QB pretty much became pointless after you discovered the reverse play.

I also liked Baseball Stars and Bad News Baseball but wasn't big on the Bases Loaded series.

RC Pro Am was another quality game and I liked Ice Hockey (the one where you pick the skinny, medium, or fat player).

It makes me feel like a fucktard to admit it but I've honestly never played Golf.  After hearing so much about it lately though, I think I'm going to pick it up and give it a shot.

Baines, I just picked up a lot on eBay and it had another copy of golf, you can buy it off me for a few bucks if ya want, I definitly dont need a duplicate copy

I loved Dusty Diamond's All-Star Softball.  I look for it on ebay, but it always goes for $25 - $35.  Not spending that much on an old video game without RBI in the title

Thanks.  I appreciate the offer but a buddy of mine told me he thinks he has a copy laying around that he doesn't play.  If I don't hear back from him in a couple days though I'll send you a PM.

Has anyone else played Touchdown Fever?  It was a football game played from a total top-down perspective, on such a ridiculous scale that they measured first-down distance in tenths of a yard.  It also had no height perspective on passes, so an interception could occur at any point in the ball's flight.  It was really cool, though - you could play two-player co-op, you could lateral at any time, and there were two-point conversions.  I've mentioned it at work, and no one else has heard of it.

I used to play it with my buddy.  Great game.  How about Baseball Simulator 1.000 ?

I have that one, and I really enjoy it - the most RBI-like of any other baseball game I've played.  The season mode (complete with stats!) really makes the game.  The computer opponent is still horrible, but if you play a regular team in a league full of Ultra teams, they can sometimes give you a run for your money.

I hear about this and baseball stars like everyday but I've yet to come accross them at a reasonable price..........They worth it even at 15-20 bucks?

Oh and BTW, I have 2 and maybe a third Famicom to NES converter coming so I can finally play my FS's mouhahahahahahaha
