In summary, there is a game for the NES called Tecmo Superbowl Football and the speaker is interested in modifying its code. They are informed that they can either use a hex editor to change values or decompile it into assembly, but both options have limitations. The speaker expresses disappointment that they cannot add another team to the game.

There are two things you can do:

1. Use a hex editor to change some values (Good for cheating, but you can't really add stuff)
2. Decompile it into assembly. First you have to know assembly and second you need to link the program back together. I don't know if there are any apps to do number 2 for nintendo.
