10-Yard Fight (USA, Europe)

Nintendo Entertainment System ROM

rbx4 says:
10-Yard fight is a little strange. It is probably an advance over the Atari 2600 football games (such as Realsports Football), but not in every way. There is a strange arcade system of scoring, where a touchdown counts as 5000 points, for example. Players also make odd noises when they walk. The game ...

One of the under-appreciated titles in the Final Fantasy series of Japanese RPG's.
