Some consider the 1990 NFL season as one of, if not the best, NFL season in history. Around the same time Tecmo was starting to work on blowing us away with the all time NES classic Tecmo Super Bowl. I grew up in this era and my NFL fandom was at my peak around this time. For years I have been working on a side project of mine, Tecmo Super Bowl Redux. I wanted to make a more accurate simulation of the 1990 NFL season instead of the 1991 season with 1990 and 1991 players we got. This is the 3rd edition I have released and hope people enjoy this variation of the game. There have also been so many hacks that have been discovered since I first took this project on back in 2004 that it inspired me to revive this project. Thousands of hours have gone into testing how the game simulates in both SKP and COM vs COM seasons. Some of the features of this game include:
- Updated player ratings
- Rosters updated for the 1990 season - Players like Eric Dickerson, Michael Dean Perry, and Brent Williams are now included
- Updated playbooks - No more reverses! (New plays added to v4.0!)
- Schedule is in chronological order just like the actual 1990 NFL season
- Team uniforms edited - All teams have a dark and light uniform. Team matchups have been edited so they use the correct uniforms like the games played in 1990 (Divisional games are the only games where uniforms won't always be accurate
- Numerous color edits
The game has three versions available: Base, Vanilla & Hardtype.
