NFL Football Pro ’99 Recalled

Sierra Sports announced today the total recall of the just-shipped NFL Football Pro ’99 due to errors in the program’s code. With this unprecedented action, all retail copies of the game will be removed from store shelves nationwide and consumers will be given a full refund and reparation. The existing code for NFL Football Pro ’99 will continue to be enhanced and refined, resulting in improved simulation and arcade gameplay.

For January 1999, this is the business side of gaming doing what it always does: studios forming, publishers moving money around, lawsuits flying, and everyone promising the next big thing. Somewhere in that mess, players eventually get the games. Maybe.
