Tecmo Bowl is coming to DS [news]

Does this count as an alliteration?

Remember Tecmo Bowl? Well Tecmo Bowl remembers you and they are deciding to come back! It's like a long lost girlfriend that you thought you would NEVER see again, but you knew you'd never find anyone better, actually wants to come back to be with YOU. How amazing is that?

Good news, bad news time depending on who you are. The game is set to release for the DS in September (sorry console owners). Also a good news bad news depending on who you are, Tecmo Bowl may be getting developed for the Wii in 2009 as well. I hope that both versions will be playable and bring back solid memories of wonderful nostalgic times playing such a classic game.

So there you have it, nothing more, nothing less. I imagine since the NFL exclusive licensing is still Satan's ...er... EA's that Tecmo Bowl will use older players no longer in the NFL. It is being reported that Bo Jackson was approached to be in the game but he nixed it because he has other private investments that he is busy with. Guess "Bo knows investments."
