I've had cheese in some capacity every day at least since I graduated college in May 1997.

Allowing Jay Schroeder to complete a pass taints your accomplishment IMO.

How did you limit them to two plays?

Now it makes sense. Congrats on your accomplishment.

Tecmo Super Bowl might be the best sports video game of all time, relative to its time. I remember pre-ordering and getting it the day it came out. It was just so far beyond almost every other game on the market. Simulating full seasons, managing rosters, tracking statistics, editing playbooks--virtually no other game at the time was doing this.

So using a Rasberry Pi I built an emulation station right before new years. My son went to visit his nephew played the new nba2k whatever and Madden while visiting. Came home to play Techmo, Super Techmo, NBA Jam, Nintendo Ice Hockey (fat guy, medium, and skinny guy), nintendo beach volleyball, and RBI baseball.

What I love is that he appreciated the differences but could enjoy both. The simplicity of these games really does add to the enjoyment of just a fun game.

When I taught school I'd come home all stressed out and really enjoy playing a game of Madden. Tried playing on my brothers PS4 and it's gotten way too complicated to relax and play. maybe I've lost all the fast twitch reflexes or something, but I really enjoy the 5 button max games.

Found an online emulation of NHL 2004 that I've been playing with a college buddy, pretty much the perfect combo of ease/complexity.
Did you see that ludicrous display last night?
