Although the game was released in late , all team rosters and player attributes were based on the prior NFL season, which means no '91 drafted rookies and no newly signed or traded players prior to the beginning of the season were added to the game.
The original game utilized the NFL schedule only; therefore, playing multiple seasons with alternate schedules was not possible. The game was very successful in the final years of the NES and, although more than 20 years old, it has maintained an extensive cult following. Team data could also be accessed from the main menu.
In the original NES Tecmo Bowl, each team had 20 players on its roster, with nine players for offense, nine players for defense, a kicker, and a punter. In Tecmo Super Bowl, each roster had 30 different players.
Each team had eleven defensive players, which could not be substituted, nor injured. Each team had seventeen offensive players, which included eleven starters and six substitutes.
At any given time, eleven players were on the field for each team, consistent with NFL rules. A kicker and a punter were also on the roster. In addition to using real teams and players, TSB incorporated the full-length NFL regular season schedule for the game. The playoff format, including the Super Bowl and the post-season Pro Bowl game, was also used. Tecmo Super Bowl retained the arcade-style football gameplay of the original which included no penalties and the ability to break tackles.
However, the game added new features, such as the coin toss, fumbles, five-minute quarters, timeouts to avoid ten second runoffs, stat tracking, single season NFL Records page, expanded and editable playbooks, the ability to substitute players, varying health conditions of players and player injuries.
As it had previously, the game used cut scenes for important events like touchdowns and halftime shows. Tecmo Super Bowl also added cutscenes when injuries or big plays occurred. As part of the gameplay, players can adjust offensive plays and substitute players for each NFL team and for the two Pro Bowl teams. The Pro Bowl team's roster can be edited as well. Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams players could be viewed as an individual 'player card' with their statistics and attributes and their status, which can improve or decrease, making the player better or worse.

Don't let the 'Vanilla' moniker fool you as there is a laundry list of modification from the original game besides the roster updates.
For instance, the touchback has been changed to the 25 yard line and the extra point attempt has been moved back to the 15 yard line.
There are logic changes like the computer taking less sacks or not kicking a FG too early towards the end of the half. Little things like the animation of the QB being changed as he dropped back To quote Shawshank, " I mean, seriously, how often do you look at a man's shoes? The Hard Type versions are for the "do you even lift, bro" Tecmo crowd as the famed Tecmo Juice gets turned up quickly and the CPU quarterback starts throwing at the receivers you're not covering.
Come get some. Another year, another prediction as Kansas City returns to try to repeat as Super Bowl winners whereas "Tompa Bay" put behind some early seasons growing pains to become a force in the NFC. This conflict unfortunately devolved to the point that litigation was brought against some long-time members, something certainly to avoid.
