input ="Madden Football 64" is a football
video game . It is the first Madden game on theNintendo 64 . The game has commentary by Pat Summerall and John Madden.This edition does not use real NFL team names or logos, so as with past games that had players' association licenses but not those of the league, the teams use devices that consist of two bars with the team colors, and the team name on top of them in white, accompanied by players in their uniforms. The Pro Bowl is referred to as the "Madden Bowl," and the Super Bowl as the "EAS Championship."
Oddly, the
New England Patriots are referred to as Foxboro and the Los Angeles Rams historic team are referred to as Anaheim. This refers to where their stadiums are actually located (despite the Rams not playing in Anaheim until the 1980s. Despite this, theBuffalo Bills ,Dallas Cowboys , andDetroit Lions are not referred to as Orchard Park, Irving, and Pontiac respectively.This was also one of the first football games that could be played in the first person.
The uniform colors are also wrong at times. The Bears' helmet is orange rather than navy. The Chargers' helmet is yellow rather than navy. The Patriots' helmet is red rather than silver.
