    The 4th Annual Midwest Tecmo Tournament is quickly approaching, much like the NFL draft.  (It's always held on the same weekend)  Held just north of Cincinnati, OH, the tournament is famous for it's competition and once having David Fulcher in attendance.

    There are still openings available in the tourney.  Go to the forum to find out more information or contact tourney organizer Chris Vogt @ [email protected]

    Some people are following both.  Some people are following neither.  If you're those guys, there is an entire forum of Tecmo

    This is for the guys who are following one or the other.  Just click on the picture below to talk about what's going on with one and continue to simply ignore the other one.

    In case you haven't seen this (you're probably the only person on the internet considering it's 900k+ views), it's been the most popular Tecmo video.  Watch Bo Jackson in all his 75 MS glory run circles around a hapless Patriots defense (the Colts would have been worse), time and again like a man among boys.  Watch the greatest video game running back of all time almost score, get bored, run back to his own end zone, and torture the Pats until the quarter ends.

    While this thing has been doctored a bit (paused, slow motion) it's not all that hard to reproduce if you have a little patience.

    Over the years, many people have come up with the idea of mashing Fantasy Football with Tecmo.  In other words, picking players from the game, simming the games and compiling the stats.  For the first time in recorded modern history, such a league has been started and completed.

    Our championship game featured the High Powered offense of Warren Moon, Earnest Byner, and David Meggett vs the master of the close game in Barry Sanders, Bobby Humphries, and a couple of WRs with running plays.  On to the breakdown:

    Arena Football enthusiast  "Elway" has released some of his  graphics work from his upcoming release for this season's AFL.  If you have some input as to the starting lineups or the ratings of the players, please stop by the message board and help him out.



    Some notes on the rom




    (COA mode only) It's what I only play, so the only mode I'll make.
    (11 on a side rosters) I'm not skilled enough to remove the players.
    (old school playbooks/ 6 pass 1 run)
    (18 game schedule)
    (Graphic alterations up the wazoo)


     

    If Arena Football isn't your thing, Elway has been been putting out other roms for years so check them out here.

    While he may have lost his championship runner up in Louisville the first day, TecmoBama runs away with the championship by correctly picking Uconn over Kentucky in the semis and to win it all.  Special shout out to dean in deadlast for boosting the overall percentage rating of anyone who bothered to fill out a bracket.

    Long time lurker "Sports Nut" first post was a great one as he rolled out a 2011 version of Baseball Stars! Also, TecmoTurd has released a 2011 RBI baseball rom featuring all 30 teams (did you know they made RBI Baseball with 32 teams?

    Tecmo Bowl Tattoo [PIC]

    By Knobbe, in News,

    Our old buddy Brad of TecmoBowl vs RBI was photographed last year in Omaha with his one of a kind Tecmo Bowl tat.  Check out his website to see the rest of them and if you've ever wanted to dominate your friends in the original four play Tecmo Bowl.

    Today there was an April 1st prank where all the traffic from TecmoWorld was forwarded to PureTecmo. Puretecmo had set up a series of fake forums for TecmoWorld leagues. Forwarding an entire site is a tricky task and it seemed to be handled quite well by pulling it back soon after and declaring "it had been enabled too soon." Given the past volatility of the parties involved, it was fairly understandable if some assumed this was going to happen on April 1st.

    This was leaked out by an overzealous Mr. TecmoSuperBowl, so find more information here.
