Below is a segment from IGN in regards to the inital annoucement of Tecmo Bowl 2008 last May:

Next, Tecmo Bowl...

7:23: Seriously, Tecmo Bowl? People at the press conference cheer. Mr. Inaga, Vice President of Tecmo Inc, takes the stage. Inada takes the stage and jokes that the title of the game wasn't supposed to ahve been revealed until the end. "Just pretend like you don't know that it says Tecmo Bowl here" (pointing to the logo on the screen) "Instead of telling you about it, we're going to s how you a video that is very memorable."

The video begins. The video shows Tecmo employees (including Inada himself) playing SNES Tecmo Bowl. Jumps to a trailer for the full game. Set for release in 2008. But, no footage of the game itself ... just a logo. And no platform announcement, intentionally. "I can't tell you what platform we're making it for. But I can tell you that it's probably not going to be on the platform that you're expecting... if that makes any sense." This 2008 game will not be a port. It's a band new game for one of the new systems. But which one?!? "That's one thing I can tell you for sure. This is going to be a brand new game for one of the new systems ... We're confident that the new Tecmo Bowl is going to be the talk of the town in 2008."

I think they are spreading it across a few platforms. I could definitely be wrong. I seen the DS version and laughed. We've been able to put roms on the original xbox. Not to mention roms in general for the pc. I am stunned they did very little with the graphics for that game in particular. It looks like super nintendo.

Found an updated roster as of 2007 for tecmo bowl.

http://www.famssu.com/tecmo/tbowl.zip. I didn't know they had one with the rosters this recent.

Emulator to play it with

http://superb-east.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/nestopia/Nestopia131bin.zip

If anyone downloads this and wants to try playing it online it's possible. Go to Netplay/Start. Add the Tecmo Bowl file/ launch Kailera. You have to create a user name.Then, go to the GodWeapon's Best of the Best server. You'll see a list of games, and click on TECBOWL.NES, and click join. You play with the arrows, and the comma and period keys are the A and B button.
