LEGEND BOWL - Nintendo Switch Review | Don't Miss It

Developer Super Pixel Games and publisher Top Hat Studios have really outdone themselves with this one. Legend Bowl is the perfect blend of arcade fun and deep football sim. It immediately became one of those games I just can't put down - the true spiritual successor to Tecmo Bowl.

Thanks for reviewing our game! Just a head’s up we’ve pushed out new performance updates which dramatically improve the speed at which the game plays! 🙏

[@reggiepathak9684]

hey bro love the game and i have it on the pc and i am going to buy it on the switch as well but one quesiton. On the pc you can download mods for nfl teams players ect to get all the latest teams, players ect and is that possible for the switch? Or does some individual have to come up with a method to add that to the switch?

[@MrKingJavo]

@@reggiepathak9684 Unfortunately, it's not possible as far as we're aware and we obviously can't comment on it since we don't have the license.

[@reggiepathak9684]

@@MrKingJavo for the pc version someone made a mod with updated teams and roster ect and its fucking great, i just wish there was a way to do that with the switch thats all but other then that its a great game

[@maniacmatt1782]

Been playing on Steam for over a year. It's a great game, much much deeper than the retro style graphics lead on. From a purely gameplay standpoint, the game is as deep if not deeper than Madden. Madden may look prettier and have better animations. Legend Bowl plays closer to real football.

[@simnation5331]

I'm a beta tester. The switch and older consoles got a speed multiplier. Unfortunately it came out a little before reviewers got it. The multiplier will help the speed of the game tremendously. Newer consoles are really fast like the PC without it.

[@TheBrosen1]

Any word on the game breaking issue after the punting? I just had it on my third game. Really kills wanting to invest any time into a game.

[@simnation5331]

@@TheBrosen1 The publishers and dev know and are aware. They will be working on it.

[@stragum5683]

You won't find a more passionate developer in @King Javo.

[@TheDannyStylez]

Multiplayer is planned but it was too expensive to implement now. But hopefully if the game performs well online should be added

[@benjaminbigham2814]

If tecmo super bowl & 90's madden had a baby legend bowl would be it

[@danielsmith2982]

I just bought it two days ago and it either crashes or there is a glitch where the ball carrier gets stuck in the air and you cant tackle him. I love the game but i keep losing my progress

[@CashMoneyKennels]

Best game ever

[@CashMoneyKennels]

16 bit is the future. If you want good graphics go outside!

[@chrisspearline767]

Retro Bowl is the spiritual successor to Tecmo Bowl. It took the game to another level

[@maxmustardman298]

I just purely for the art style. Tecmo all over again

[@zachholstine]

Does franchise mode keep track of stats year to year? Like career passing yards, stuff like that.

[@AidenEdmond-p9w]

he

[@couchfort3934]

I might still check this out. I just wish the “retro graphics” were more Sega Genesis Madden, and less Newgrounds sprite art.

[@marioolivo8188]

They should add some way to share rosters or teams

[@harrychristopher8548]

Bro im with you on that something feels lost

[@daRealRoot]

The gameplay shown for switch is normal speed or is it in slow mo for recording sake? Ive seen the ps5 version is much much faster. Just wondering

[@Watcher-Gaming]

It’s normal. The PS5 version looks MUCH faster.

[@kentanyamartin8313]

Yea I been playing for 2 days and it’s def faster on the 5

[@daRealRoot]

@@kentanyamartin8313 yeh I got it on the 5.. great speed.. but. Now with Madden out it's gonna be hard to find time for this.. great game tho

[@icey32]

Question I know you can edit the teams / players in the game can you do that in franchise mode too ?

[@Watcher-Gaming]

Yeah! You can edit the coach's appearance when you start your save file. To edit a player, go to Team > Roster > [Player] to edit jersey number, facemask, eye color, etc.

[@chrisspearline767]

This actually reminds me of a cross between ten yard fight and an early Madden title with better gameplay

[@chrisspearline767]

You should be able to accelerate your QB when scrambling makes no sense that everyone else can but him

[@yaboi5047]

Liked and subbed thanks man.

[@Sharkbajt1791]

He might have said this and I missed it, but are you able to select sides during gameplay? I want to be able to play as both teams.

[@Watcher-Gaming]

As far as I know, you can’t switch sides during a game

[@allenantonio4389]

Looks Sweet

[@AEWMARK2504]

If there online multiplayer

[@usaliengames9810]

If that's a question, the answer is 'no' and it's addressed in the video.

[@KWPZ21]

No but it has 4 player local play.

[@glimmeringharpy]

love the graphics on this game!

[@rudesback5013]

Legend bowl is super fun and challenging
