FEATURES
Get off the couch and onto the field!
Whether you’re running for a touchdown or intercepting a pass, Play TV Football
brings the fun and excitement of professional football into your living room!
Choose formations and plays then speed burst, spin, or stiff-arm your way to a
touchdown, just like the real thing!
When throwing a pass, don’t actually throw the football. Simply grip it tightly and
make a throwing motion straight ahead. The motion sensors inside the ball will
read this as a pass and the quarterback on the screen will throw the ball. Once
all nine balls are thrown, your final score is calculated based on your actual quar-
terback rating, just like the pros. A perfect rating equals 158.3.
SETTING UP
BATTERY INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT actually throw the ball. Throwing the ball could
cause injury and damage the game itself. Use the safety strap attached to the
football when in use.
RUNNING BACK CHALLENGE
On the back of the main unit, open the battery compartment and insert four (4)
AA batteries as indicated inside the compartment (alkaline batteries recommend-
ed). Replace the battery compartment door.
NOTE: Batteries in the Main Unit should give you about 10 hours of game play (if
alkaline batteries are used). The game will not operate normally when the batter-
ies begin to run low. The screen may be blurred and resetting the game may not
work. Be sure to install fresh batteries. There is also no memory function. All
game data will be erased when the power is turned off or batteries are replaced.
This will hone your running skills and help you successfully time Actions to run
the ball in for a touchdown. Grip the football tightly and snap the ball to start the
game. It’s up to you to run down the field as fast as you can while avoiding vari-
ous defenders along the way.
Your player will automatically run, but it’s up to you to give him a “turbo boost”
by actually running on the two Directional Buttons. The Turbo Meter at the bot-
tom of the screen shows how big a boost you give him.
Function
When a defender tries to tackle you, just before he gets to you, quickly step on
the Action Button to Spin or give him a Stiff Arm. The faster you get down the
field, the better your score.
