How about Backyard Football?
There's nothing like MLB Power Pros for football, is there?
How about Backyard Football?
Boat - Backyard doesn't scratch the same itch as Power Pros does.
It's too dumbed down, it is made for kids after all. I had one version, and did a scoring recap version of the Super Bowl here...the final score for a 3 minute / quarter game was something like 77-74, I think my post was about 3 pages long. And the opposing team did stupid stuff like punt on the last play of the game...down by only 3.
I guess NFL Blitz may be the closest, but I don't think that's quite right either...

Nothing that I know of since its got a kiddy look and a non arcade feel. What scoots keeps referencing to are arcade styled games (ala Blitz and NBA Jam ect).
Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

Power Pros is based on a Japanese baseball series, and they don't play American football in Japan.
Currently catching up on PSN, WiiWare, Wii U E-Shop and Xbox Live Arcade exclusives I missed.
