Finally we have NBA Jam Tournament Edition on the Super Nintendo. Even if you don’t like sports games, NBA jam is a clear exception to the rule. Just look at what’s going on.
From the insane moves you can pull off, to the announcers shouting out ridiculous catch phrases from the 90s, the net literally catching fire when you score a bunch of points to the extra characters you can unlock like bill or Hilary Clinton. There’s even Heavy D, the Fresh Prince and even members of the Beastie Boys. NBA Jam is a fantastic arcade basketball game and set the bar for years to come.
