DS - Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop - New games this week for North America G4 writes:

"Some might say last week, others the week before that, but for me, there is no competition: This week is the greatest week in games EVER! Mass Effect, you say? Well, how about History Channel: Battle for the Pacific? Super Mario Galaxy? I've got my copy of Space Ace HD right here, waiting for you. That's it, fellas. I'm blowing my holiday pay on these hot titles and maybe I'll pick up a copy of The Tuttles Madcap Misadventures: Starlight Starbright Charity Challenge just to play in my down time. Tell me, how do you compete with that?"

DS News | Tecmo Bowl (2008)
After announcing Project Rygar and showing a demo of Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword, Tecmo felt it necessary to further egg on the world by mentioning, in an almost passing sort of way, that Tecmo Bowl is coming back in 2008. No platform was named, no screens or art were provided, just the announcement. Seems like par for the course this week, huh? Lots of talk, not so much action. Look for more on the revamped Tecmo Bowl as it becomes available, or check out the NES original on Wii's Virtual ...

DS News from N4G | Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff
DS - Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff - New Tecmo Bowl Screens Oh how I miss the days of sweet smelling 8 -bit football in the morning. I miss Bo Jackson hitting the sideline, Iron Head Heyward running through 6 men at a time , the days of Warren Moon's 100 yard passes to Drew Hill or Haywood Jefferies, and this great Quarterback by the name of "Eagles". I may have never seen him play a true NFL game but in the Ole Days of Tecmo bowl On Nintendo he quite possibly was the man people would look for on each and every Sunday Morning when the ABC's, CBS's, and NBC's would grace our lives with Beautiful NFL Bliss. Will we ever see those days again, mmmhhhhh, Oh Yes my friend we most definitely will. That is ofcoarse without the NFL endorsement but worry not good scholar Tecmo Bowl is back and better than ever on the Nintendo DS.

DS News from N4G | Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff
DS - Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff - Tecmo: No Bo Jackson, No NFL For New 'Tecmo Bowl' - But Still Faithfully Old-School MTV Multiplayer writes: "Yesterday's announcement of the return of "Tecmo Super Bowl" in the form of "Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff" for the DS was a long time coming. And it sparked several questions that a Tecmo spokesperson answered for me overnight.

First of all, I'm told that this game isn't a new 3D re-invention. It's a classic 2D game.

I've also learned that the game won't include any NFL teams or players, due to EA having the licenses locked up. It won't include retired players either, and that includes "Tecmo Super Bowl" icon Bo Jackson.

The teams in the new DS game will be aligned with the cities from the original "Tecmo Bowl," with a few added to bring the team count to 32. "Although the team names are not NFL, we picked names that fit with the original spirit of 'Tecmo Bowl,'" the company rep told me. Customization features will let players change the team names."
