      Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff is an American football video game developed by Polygon Magic and published by Tecmo for the Nintendo DS. A remake of Tecmo Super Bowl, the game was released on November 18, 2008.[1][2][4] A Wii version was also announced, but was quietly cancelled and retooled into a new game called Family Fun Football.[5]
