Super Play Action Football is a football video game developed by Nintendo for the Super NES. Though not a terrible game, it was commercially unsuccessful as it faced fierce competition from competitors such as Electronic Arts. [1] The goal of the game is to obtain the ball and reach the other end of the field to score a touchdown, while avoiding opponent players who can pile onto the character possessing the ball. If the opponent players do manage to pile onto the character holding the ball, the play stops and the team goes back to the previous line.
What made this game unique was that not only could you play as an NFL team, but you could play with College or High School teams as well! This was an unheralded feature that was never seen before or again in any console football game.
A quirk in the gameplay allows the defensive player to get an easy sack if they dive with the nose guard at the precise moment the ball is snapped.
