[@thebrendan03]

I found this channel about a month ago and noticed a bunch of hints this guy might be from Minnesota and this mostly confirms it. Trolling Packers fans with the Sterling Sharpe bit it hilarious.

[@whosaidthat84]

mtildsley random story but way back when my friend was selling QB Club 98 on N64 to game crazy and they would only give him 9 cents. from there on we called it "9 cents: the game"

[@thejanglezclan]

... I remember Sterling Sharpe...

[@LegendoftheDragonSword]

Sterling was the man. Every time Favre was in trouble early in his career he just hocked it in Sterling's general area. When Free Agency opened up in the early/mid 90's Green Bay went out and bought a Super Bowl team (Just like the 1994 49ers did). Reggie White, Andre Rison, Sean Jones, Desmond Howard...All those guys were major players in their Super Bowl run in 1996. Without that "talent stack" I don't think Brett Favre would have ever had that ring. I was really sad Sterling didn't get a ring since he had to retire early but then his Bro Shannon gave him his Broncos ring after they beat GB in '97. Now that's classy!

[@herogibson]

[@PhuryousOne]

I used to wear his jersey back in jr. high. Hell of a wideout. Unfortunate injury.

[@comfortable.and.furious]

Came in to say this hurt my soul as a Packers fan.

[@duaneking9731]

Yeah , how does he not know Sterling Sharpe, shannon said he was an even better football player than him during his HOF Induction

[@PaulGaither]

Troy Aikman football was released in 1994 and remained the second best Football game on the SNES until maybe Madden 97/98 came out. You bash on it, but it had a lot more going for it than you give it credit for. It had: • a deep play book • the ability to create plays of your own • the ability to customize teams by increasing and decreasing the salary of your players in a balanced way. • Unlike the other games, including Madden titles, running both inside and outside was balanced and fair and fun. • The passing game worked. No windowed passing or tipped at the line like Madden and there were real concepts • the weather effects were a lot of fun. Rain, snow, grass and turf. When picking the best SNES football games, I would probably recommend this order: Madden 98 Tecmo Super Bowl (any) Troy Aikman football Seriously, give it a try and remember that it came out 4 years before Madden 98 and was doing things better than Madden 93-96 ever did.

[@MrPotteeMouf]

SNES DRUNK IS bar none the best reviewer on KZbin. Thanks for these videos

[@SamuraiSam]

Cool video. It's great to see a retro gamer covering these sports games that don't get talked about often enough. Fun fact: the fake field goal pass in Pro Quarterback works almost every time, no matter where you are on the field!

[@Darbobski]

Sterling Sharpe was an amazing talent. If not for a neck injury, he'd be in the HoF. His brother, Shannon, is a HoFer.

[@CeruleanChurch]

Shannon telling the HoF to induct Sterling during his own speech still gives me chills

[@eklypised]

I remember watching Sterling as a kid at South Carolina

[@TheBrett04]

Even with the neck injury, he belongs in the HoF. He was the only offensive weapon the Packers had in his 8 seasons.

[@Darbobski]

@@TheBrett04 Agreed. He was more talented than his brother, which is something Shannon acknowledges to this day. Football is such a physical sport that it seems unreasonable for players to play for 15 years just for a chance at the HoF.

[@jesot]

Tecmo Super Bowl III also has create-a-player that works like an RPG in how they improve over time which really adds a ton of value to it over the other two games in the series.

[@SkepticalKat]

This is the best the Vikings have played in years!

[@thenostalgiafactor5023]

Total length of video: 718 secs. Total length of "SNES Drunk": .5 secs. .07% of the video was spent listening to "SNES Drunk".

[@gluserty]

There's also the rare "Tecmo Super Bowl II: Special Edition" in which you can play a three year, 1992-1994 NFL schedule with corresponding rosters for that particular season (I think that's impressive). The knocks I have on the game are that there's no first down marker of any kind, the CPU goes for two much too often, when you intercept the ball you aren't informed of the player who picked off the pass, and the stats screen during games doesn't acknowledge enough players for all the space it has. Otherwise, it's a lot like the third game, which I do agree is the best football game on the SNES.

[@evanschmitt2830]

Tecmo 3 was weird with rookies because some of them were in the game but not named (for example: Joey Galloway is with the Seahawks but listed as WR Seahawks). But other rookies like Steve McNair weren't in the game.

[@parker_aug2]

I never realized how many developers the NFL used to license their rights to. It's sad to think about it as now only EA is allowed to make NFL games which means no NFL 2K or Blitz.

[@luisvilla799]

Blitz was the shit!!! Hated street

[@thunter992]

Fuck 2k. They're worst than EA when it comes to microtransactions in their sports games now

[@shaggyturtlestudios]

Man, the state of modern licensed games kinda sucks nowadays. I miss when more then one company could make a game based on a license. Because that just doesn’t happen much anymore.

[@METALFACEDOOM441]

It's all Roger Goodell's fault.

[@geekgo4]

@@shaggyturtlestudios Do they really need a license to make a sports game?

[@SlyBeast]

I LOVED Tecmo Super Bowl III but don't follow sports at all. To me, that's the mark of a great sports game. A store shipped it to us by complete accident and my parents just gave it to me. Score!

[@mhans311]

The tecmo games are definitely the most fun to play. I have nostalgic memories of ABC Monday Night Football because my parents bought it for me one year, but it's true the game play is slow and painful. But it does have power plays which are kind of cool. Nice roundup here!

[@mizer9510]

All the Madden games were good, and Super High Impact is so amazing and fun. Super Tecmo Bowl is awesome too.

[@samuelgallagher8112]

Hi SNES drunk, I really enjoyed your video and I agree with your opinion and your Top 5 picks, but I just want to let you know that you forgot to include Sports Illustrated: Championship Football & Baseball in which is both Football and Baseball games in one game. Also, I think Sterling Sharpe: End 2 End was actually the Worst and Hardest Football game for SNES. I also want to like Troy Aikman NFL Football as well. See You Later.

[@alfgwahigain5544]

I remember renting NFL Football with a friend. We thought the game was broken, it was SOOOOO slow. Just incredibly frustrating and tedious. It's amazing to me that anyone thought this was acceptable to release.

[@TheRetroViking]

I might be 9 years late to the party but great job :)

[@christopherpennetta8973]

I love your videos SNES Drunk but most kids/teens who really liked and watched football like I did remember Sterling Sharpe. He was an underrated receiver but still a good one. With the way they throw the ball in today's game his numbers may look like he sucked but in that day and the way the game was played then he was a really good talent. Didn't help that you had Rice, Carter, Rison, Irvin, Moss and other really great WR's in or entering the league as teams were finally starting to open the field passing with HOF QB's. Aikman, Montana, Young, Cunningham, Simms, Esaison, Kelly, Elway, Favre... the league was ripe with so much talent at the QB position in the early 90's.

[@kentatm2663]

Come on now, what self respecting football fan who grew up in the 90s doesnt remember Sterling Sharpe? That dude was a beast until he injured his neck. His bro Shannon is gonna come after ya! :-D Also, maybe I'm weird but I played the ever living hell out of Super Play Action. Once you get used to the way the field is presented it's not too hard to get the passing game down and it has a fairly decent run game for the era.

[@MrAdriaxe]

Sterling Sharpe was so good that Mike Ditka once wrote "he's the best receiver in football" when Jerry Rice, Michael Irvin and Cris carter were at their peaks. And Ditka's a Bear.

[@NathanLJustice]

I'm not even into football and I know Sharpe.

i never played EA NCAA Football '97 on SNES but it's surprising to hear how bad it was because EA NCAA FB '97 on the Genesis is one of my favorite video games of all time. Now that i think about it - it probably is my favorite video game of all time. Between it & Sonic 2, i'm not sure which i played more, but i can guarantee it's between those two games that i spent the most hours actually playing as a kid.

[@SpaghettiJoBayBay]

I'm glad I found this video. I've been looking for the Football game I had as a child and as soon as I heard it, I knew it was the game. Super High Impact was the game I remember owning and always liking how it sounded but never cared enough to learn how to play it. Did anyone else throw on games you had just because why not? I had many Super Scope games but not the actual Super Scope. I listen to the damn Metal Combat title screen over and over because I liked it so much but never got to even play it. Anyway thanks for helping me find Super High Impact.

[@danfortuna1984]

love these sports dedicated videos and wouldn't mind if ya did some for the the other systems

[@GrunkyMcSaucy]

I liked Super Play Action Football. The playbook was kind of a learning curve, but the leaping interceptions and stiff arms were satisfying. Also the college version let you customize your schedule which was nice.

[@BaronLector]

That's also how you (or I, at least) had to catch passes. Switch to the intended receiver, move a couple yards before the catch-marker, and jump up for it.

[@acvieluf]

Oh good, someone else talking about this game! Here's my copied and pasted comment from the main thread! (I hate this game now, but i loved it then!) OLD vid, new comment: I had Super play action football growing up. It was the only football game i owned, and i was a huge football fan, so I got to know that game inside and out. Here's a "fun" fact: The computer couldn't make any decisions. They could only follow a script. If they were on offense, the play would always happen the same way every time, throw to the same receiver, run to the same gap, every single time. And to top it off, each offensive play looked slightly different on the map. After you play defense long enough, you can literally memorize the formations, and where the ball will go EVERY SINGLE TIME. Games that were 100-0 were easy to accomplish. (but extremely tedious.)

[@GrunkyMcSaucy]

@@acvieluf I definitely knew what play the computer was running 90% of the time based on the formation. But I thought it was genuinely fun to play against another person (if they were familiar with the game). Also, the college mode. It was challenging winning the championship with certain teams, even if you were super familiar with the game. Even if you won every game.

[@tonyfabiano3053]

Tecmo Super Bowl III is my favorite football game ever and in my top 10 of favorite games period! So many memories with friends!

[@TheStapleGunKid]

I love Super Play Action Football. It's the only game ever with HS, College, and NFL in the same game, and you really feel the difference in each mode. This was the game that made me a football fan. It's an absolute masterpiece. Easily one of the best football games ever made.

[@PKzenn]

[@mikehorrigan7806]

In Madden ‘97 I believe Jax and Carolina were hidden teams, both ranked 99. In Madden ‘98 they were playable with actual roster and ratings.

Interesting that there were so many options! I knew about Madden and a few others....While most of them look rough, at least there were choices....Unlike how it's been for quite a while where the one option is Madden and the games tend to have many bugs and glitches and little more than updated rosters....

[@yiorgo187]

Would like to see other sports series like this one, baseball, basketball, soccer etc. keep it up!

[@PatMcCarthy420]

The reason why the ball is being batted down in Madden is because you’re throwing bullets by holding down on the throw button. If you tap it you throw high-arching rainbows that easily clear the line of scrimmage

[@chadcook5934]

Sterling Sharp was a great WR for Green Bay idk what you mean by no one remembers who he is. He wouldve been in the hall of fame if he didnt get injured and had to retire early due to it. He had a prime Bret Farve as a QB and then it was a young Aaron Rodgers and no im not a Green Bay fan at all. It's just people know who he is.

[@dacypher22]

I remember renting ABC Monday Night Football back in the day. I actually found out that with one of the post route plays, if you kept running backwards with your QB until your guy ran into the right side of the end zone and you threw it to him, he would get a touchdown every time. I was crushing the CPU 84-14 every game. Suffice to say, it was fun for one evening but once I returned the rental I never thought about it again.

[@fabricatedreality418]

[@NWAWskeptic]

Sports games of this era were fun for most part. It was cool to experience them evolve. Especially when season stats were finally counted. But the computer managed teams were written annoyingly. Results were team based, not roster based. Typically game reflected the strengths of weaknesses of the trams of the era it was released. But instead of making the players on the good teams the reason why, the game was written to make certain teams good regardless of roster. I used to test this by trading an entire roster from a very good team with the entire roster of a very bad team and invariably the teams would stay the same in regards to being good or bad, irrespective of rosters.

[@gameboysleepyd4277]

3rd Tecmo Bowl game was my absolute favorite SNES game period. It was my old stand-by. I would play other games, experience the bigger and newer titles but always had Tecmo Super Bowl: III to fall back on. I probably put in thousands of hours on that game being an American military kid who lived off base in Germany. At the time the stat tracking and continuous career/season modes were unique. They were also the first game to introduce a hurdle animation that worked and the spin actually looked like a real football maneuver. Plus they had a crap ton of CAP slots where you could mix and match actual rosters, keep up with real world free agency and transactions, and even create big name rookies onto teams. Definitely makes me miss the side scroller football game design. I know it wasn't perfect for strategy but the presentation always seemed closer to actually watching a real game. The only Sega game I found that could compete with the Tecmo series as far as entertainment value was Joe Montana's Sports Talk Football II. Similar side scrolling presentation, a tiny bit of voice announcers, smooth gameplay, and pretty impressive graphics for the time but still nowhere close to Tecmo Bowl.

[@CookieByNature]

[@DeathsNitemareShepardOfHope]

I played a ton of Techmo Bowl on the OG GameBoy, SF was my team, there were two plays that seemed to always work. 1 pass play to Clark and 1 run for Rodger Creig always got major yards or scored. It was a fun game, Cincinnati even seemed a bit more difficult to beat when i would play against them and i swear some teams were better at "covering" certain plays but once you found the one that worked it was like that catch always happened or the run gap was always there as if to emulate the strengths and weaknesses of each team from the era the game is based on(mid-late 80's maybe early 90) It sounds like alot of programming and depth for a GameBoy game and it could have just been my young mind perceiving "depth" in the intricacies of Techmo Bowl😅 Great Video though 👍

[@Billyshatner88]

Alot of people remember who Sterling Sharpe is lol he was to Bret Farve what Jerry Rice was to Joe Montana he's also Shannon Sharpe's older brother career cut short because of this injury but 1 of the best receivers of his era hall of famer

[@untexan]

The big flaw in 16-bit Tecmo Super Bowl (and all the revivals since then) is that you can’t throw the ball more than like 30 yards down the field. It’s a lot harder to beat the CPU defense through the air because you literally can’t get deep. The end zone to end zone throws in 8-bit TSB were ridiculous but in a fun way. Also: Super High Impact was WILD in the arcade. Tons of fun.

[@thelegendinhisownmind7038]

I remember Sterling Sharpe. How could I not?... I know him personally. One of my best friend's older sister dated him while he was in college at the University of South Carolina; and they remained close after he left school for the NFL. After his neck injury, which forced him to retire, he worked for ESPN; and since I live in CT, he would visit my best friend's house on occasion, and I was always allowed to come over when he was there. I even have a picture with him from back in 1996. What sucks is had he not had the neck injury, which forced him to end his career prematurely, he would've easily been a top 10 all time NFL receiver. A year after his career ending injury, the Packers won the Super Bowl, so he would've had that accolade as well. Even Shannon Sharpe, his brother, said that Sterling was easily the most talented between the two.

Sterling Sharpe was a beast. I love your reviews, but you’re way off on Sterling.

Madden 96,97 or 98 all play the same, with same menus updated rosters. Hummmmmm i sure hope that does not happen again in the Madden series on PS2/Xbox, PS3/Xbox360 or the PS4/ Xbox X consoles???

Super Tecmo Bowl was the best football game ever made. That Houston Oilers squad was my favorite team to play with

[@noaht2005]

I know literally nothing about american football, but this was still an entertaining video

[@cfinecoco]

Bring back tecmo bowel for the Nintendo switch.

[@stevenumana9034]

Well, the first one is available for the online service but we need Tecmo Super Bowl!

Switch needs TSB and also needs to add THE BEST BASEBALL NES game ever - Baseball Simulator 1.0000 the Wii U had it why can’t the switch? Don’t tell me Baseball Stars and RBI are better, if you want the best of both worlds you choose BS 1.0000 or whatever where am I ?

NCAA Football 5:27 okay that game is playable and has the Fighting Illini on it. You just need to throw to backs swinging out and get the hang of it. In fact the running game in that game is more the major fault than the passing/receiving game. Good video, unfortunately THE GOAT VIDEO FOOTBALL GAME EVER was never released on the SNES. It was the first Joe Montana for SEGA GENESIS and designed by EA Sports for SEGA. In fact they took their Madden programming and tried to dumb it down but did it for a favor to SEGA and accidentally made the best game of all time. What do mean nobody remembers Sterling Sharpe? His game was decent, you got that part right.

NCAA Football is actually pretty decent. Not sure why you had trouble catching the ball, you just throw it in the direction of the player and they catch it, there's no secret. It's nice they went minimalist on the graphics because it meant the game ran smooth. The perspective also helps it run smooth because the SNES doesn't have to worry about scaling anything.
