NBA Jam Tournament Edition is pure arcade basketball chaos, and it's freakin' awesome! The two-on-two action is fast, crazy, and those over-the-top dunks are still hilarious. Add in the iconic announcer with his catchphrases, secrets to unlock, and the nostalgia factor...it's the perfect game for those quick pick-up-and-play sessions with a buddy. Sure, it's definitely not a sim, but sometimes you just wanna go "Boomshakalaka!" and slam a ridiculous dunk in someone's face.

NBA Jam was great in the 90s but has been improved upon several times since. Uniforms are generic and the game is missing the biggest stars of the era due to licensing issues. I would choose NBA Showtime (1999) or NBA Jam 2010 if I was looking to play a 2-on-2 arcade hoops game today.

Near flawless port of the arcade game. Saturn version actually has an edge over the PS1 port due to the AI not being broken so you won't be dealing with them immediately tackling you down the second a game starts.

i love the frantic action of this game. shrunken basketball rocks. this guy was playing against the computer at the arcade and I joined in and won by two points... a great time.

its been 30 years and its still the best arcade bball game

I play this every time my friends and I get together to play retro games. A perfect game!!!
