About Tecmo Bowl Mobile
Tecmo Bowl first broke ground in the mid eighties, setting the standard for all football video games to follow with its fun and highly addictive game play. Today, Tecmo Bowl is revered by critics and gamers alike as one of the best sports video game titles of all time. Game Informer, one of the nation’s leading video magazines, touted it as top-notch when they
ranked it as one of the best games of all time, while a recent review of the mobile game on
leading editorial web site IGN extolled the new wireless version, "Tecmo Bowl is an excellent, real-deal footballer that does more than rekindle fond NES memories -- it advances the ball and shows that mobile games can be a decidedly more complicated affair than number keys and so-so graphics. An excellent opening salvo from Tecmo Mobile".
The original football game is now the must-have mobile football game as users and fans of the sports video game can relive their

favorite Tecmo Bowl moments on the digital gridiron
by downloading Tecmo Bowl on all major mobile phone carriers including Cingular, Verizon, Sprint Nextel, and Boost Mobile Phones.
Featuring up to 16 national teams, each with their own distinctive plays, Tecmo Bowl for mobile phones is a classic throwback to the original game. Players are able to call the plays like a coach and then control the action on the field in the role of the quarterback or other positions. Once the ball has been handed off or the pass completed, the player then switches gears to control the receivers and running backs in real-time action. Boasting the original audio and tackle-activated vibrations, Tecmo Bowl is the only football game mobile gamers need for high stakes pigskin play on the go.
