NBA Jam Returns



In 1993, NBA Jam came out for Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo, and every dude on my block became addicted to the 2-on-2 game, with classic NBA rosters. Then, when everyone got a Playstation or N64, we expected the game to step up to those systems. SIKE. The creators, Midway (which is bankrupt as of last March) lost the NBA license to EA Sports and we never saw NBA Jam again. Ironically, EA announced they would be bringing back NBA Jam on the Wii (XBox360 and PS3 heads, I feel your pain). It's a quirky concept. I wouldn't mind if they kept the music though..
