    Retro Bowl on Nintendo Switch: Worth the Wait




    If you were like me, then Retro Bowl came out of nowhere back in January 2020....

    Love this game so much and still play it all the time.

    I do wish the defense at bit of "learning" to it though.

    If they could adjust to your styles of play, it would be amazing.

    Teams having certain tendencies and playbooks would be cool too.  It'd be fun to have different "types" of games based upon what the defense was giving you and your personnel

        Definitely a learning curve getting used to left stick passing.

          Great review, Bob. This had fallen off my radar so was glad to see this review and use it as a reminder to pick this up on Switch.

              Pretty sure you're not running for 100 yards a game on Extreme difficulty, let alone 250. If you are, well

                      so it is safe to say this is better than the arcade archive's tecmo bowl release? was on the fence regarding which one to get, but i think i'm going with retro bowl. and it's cheaper too.

                        Yes, the game is fantastic. I would prefer more customization to be able to add more teams and leagues, but the game in itself is amazing.

                          Can you do CPU vs CPU games?
