    Haven't bought a Wii game in a while. Looking forward to it.

    I know this is an old post, but do a google search for Tecmo Bowl ROMS and you should be able to find versions playable on your PC with current (or close to current) rosters...

    I saw this post and thought to myself "this guy posted exactly what I was going to post."

    Anyway, I have a Wii and besides the bowling portion of the sports game that came with it, I'm already over it. Maybe this game will cause me to dust it off and start playing again.

    Negative. I'm thought that there would be more than 13 or 14 characters.

    I'm picking this up this week. I'm having a BBQ this weekend and I figured this would be a fun indoor party game after everybody is sun burned.

    That video was fantastic. Once that music hit towards the end? Brilliant.

    My brother sent me a 3am text message about this the other day. Now we need to find some 9-year old kid that has a Wii.

    Was there any other greater pleasure in life than beating up on Von Kaiser? Glass Joe was easier, and the tougher fighters gave you a better payoff, but the ease of movement against that guy. Miss that.

    I remember the original Mike Tyson's punchout. Glass Joe, Super Macho Man and Bald Bull.

    Watch for the wink!
