NBA Jam (Video Game) | comment |
NBA Jam is a two-on-two basketball game that was released in the arcades (by Midway Games) and 16-bit consoles (by Acclaim). The game is notorious for its insane dunks and equally insane catchup. The game became a phenomenon when it was released in 1993, earning over a billion dollars in quarters over its lifespan. An Updated Re-release titled NBA Jam: Tournament Edition quickly followed, with new players, stat tracking, and hidden players. In 2010, EA would release NBA Jam on the 7th-generation consoles with two iterations: the first one (simply called NBA Jam) was released in 2010, with the On Fire edition released the following year.After TE, Acclaim won the rights to use the NBA Jam name and used it to make basketball games until its demise. Midway, meanwhile, made several games that took the Jam formula and expanded on it. These games were NBA Hangtime and its Updated Re-release NBA Maximum Hangtime; NBA Showtime: NBA on NBC, which took the series into 3D and used a presentation based on NBC's basketball airings, and NBA Ballers, an answer to EA's NBA Street series.While not technically part of the series, the game NBA Fastbreak could be considered the pinball cousin to the Midway installments, particularly in Tim Kitzrow announcing (as Midway was part of the same company as Williams Electronics, Kitzrow was a frequent voice in their 90s pinball tables). | |

Genre Shift | |
NBA Jam (Video Game) / int_177a6464 | comment |
Genre Shift: Acclaim's Jam games from '99 to Jam 2002 shifted from its traditional arcade gameplay to simulation-style gameplay, akin to NBA 2K and NBA Live. | |

Boss Battle | |
NBA Jam (Video Game) / int_1e14ea2a | comment |
Boss Battle: Surprisingly implemented as a gameplay mechanic in the 2010 version of NBA Jam. The bosses themselves are equally divided between the Eastern and Western Conferences, and between preexisting players and legends, who just so happen to be powered up just for the fight. The battles themselves are usually played as games of 21 (where the first player to hit 21 wins), yet there are some exceptions to the rule: Western: Kobe Bryant (stat boost in a close game), Magic Johnson (can teleport and pass the ball to himself), Yao Ming (grows bigger with every dunk, power-ups are scattered to shrink him), Chris Paul (domination rules with four slots instead of 6; if he gets all slots, he wins), Karl Malone (superpowered shoves, rubber powerups are placed to counter this) Eastern: LeBron James (goes on fire if losing), Dwyane Wade (game is played straight with no interruptions), Shaquille O'Neal (smash rules, if the backboard is destroyed, he wins; the backboard can be repaired by shooting), Larry Bird (can shoot three consecutive 3-pointers if on fire), Julius Erving (domination rules, can dominate all points if on fire) The classic tour mode pits players against teams of two legends from the same city, with the final game being played against Magic Johnson and Larry Bird - the only cross-city team in the game, and fittingly enough, cannot be used by human players. | |

Manual Leader, A.I. Party | |
NBA Jam (Video Game) / int_2905964a | comment |
Manual Leader, A.I. Party: You controlled the player who had the ball and the rest were AI driven (successfully passing would shift control to the player who caught it). If the opposing team had the ball you could switch between players freely. The game had a multiplayer mode which allowed up to four human players to control the team in the arcade version (leaving only one AI), however. | |

NBA Jam (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: Aside from all of the games' legendary cheat codes, inputting a certain combinationnote Up and all buttons on Player 1 and Down and all buttons on Player 2 while booting up the original arcade game allows you to play a hidden 3D tank minigame. In revision 3.01 of Jam, your team would get a massive stat boost if you lasted for a minute in the minigame. | |

Getting Crap Past the Radar | |
NBA Jam (Video Game) / int_4b86a724 | comment |
Getting Crap Past the Radar: Tim Kitzrow slipped in quite a few cleverly risqué lines and puns in EA's Jam that never would've flew in 1993. And the game still got an E rating! Here's a few gems: Subverted with NBA Jam XXX, an in-house prototype of the SNES port featuring profane calls from Kitzrow that was never meant to see the light of day to avoid pissing off the NBA. When the prototype surfaced in 2012, Kitzrow called it a hoax, but Jon Hey, the game's composer and sound engineer, refuted that claim, and Kitzrow himself would later admit to recording the lines years later. Check out all of the prototype's X-rated glory here. Showtime has the bowdlerised "Get that shot outta here!" | |

The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: When playing a one-on-one match against Magic Johnson in the 2010 version of the game, Magic will literally use some magic teleporting skills to make some very improbable plays, even by NBA Jam standards. | |

Author Appeal: A rare case where the designer actually admitted this and bragged about it. Series creator Mark Turmell, a Detroit Pistons fan, specifically programmed the game to make the Chicago Bulls miss last second shots in close games against the Pistons. Ironically, the development team was based in Chicago. | |

Hangtime and the 2011 On Fire edition adds Team Fire, by performing three consecutive alley-oops. The team is given 20 seconds of fire status, but can be extinguished by an opposing alley-oop. | |

Character Customization | |

Character Customization: Starting from Hangtime, Midway's line of games began including create-a-player features tied to specific name and PIN combinations. While it was extremely basic by today's standards, and the fact that you're locked into using the character once created can be annoying, it was still a huge selling point upon introduction, especially next to Acclaim's Jam Extreme, which didn't allow it. | |

NBA Jam (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The announcer line "It's gotta be the shoes!" is a reference to Spike Lee's character Mars Blackmon from his film She's Gotta Have It, who first used it as a Catchphrase in several late '80s-early '90s Air Jordan sneaker commercials with Michael Jordan. The team select theme for Hangtime interpolates some of the backing vocals from Michael Jackson's "Jam," which might explain why the King of Pop was such a big fan of the game. | |

Guest Fighter: Raiden, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, and Reptile from Mortal Kombat were Dummied Out from NBA Jam: Tournament Edition, although they can be played through hacks. George Clinton, (under the name "P. Funk"), DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, and former U.S. President Bill Clinton can be unlocked in Tournament Edition. Bill Clinton reappears in the 2009 revival and its 2010 update, this time bringing along Barack Obama and Joe Biden as teammates, and John McCain, George W. Bush and Sarah Palin as rivals. In the On Fire edition of NBA Jam 2010, Elise, Mac, and Kaori are members of Team SSX. Another bonus team (Team EA) consists of Mirror's Edge and Dead Space protagonists Faith and Issac Clarke. The game also features the now-defunct Seattle SuperSonics as a playable team (with Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp playing), as well as a team of NBA Street characters, some international teams and a couple of other random oddball players. J. Cole and 9th Wonder are unlockable bonus characters in the 2010 version of Jam. in the 2010 On Fire edition, they're replaced by the Beastie Boys. Midway's dev team also frequently put themselves into their games as hidden characters that could be unlocked with specific cheat codes. | |

Expy: Traditionally, when Michael Jordan was not on the game roster, his stats would be given to Scottie Pippen. However, in Jam '99, there's a player on the team simply named "Roster Guard", who strongly resembles Jordan and is given very high stats. To avoid legal issues, he was given a generic "99" jersey instead of the iconic "23". | |

Wake-Up Call Boss: If the Rubber-Band A.I. doesn't get you, the Dallas Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves in the original 1993 game will. To make matters worse, they are usually the first two teams you will go up against. In Hangtime, after defeating a certain amount of teams, opposing teams will start the game "fired up" at the beginning of the match, allowing them to activate Team Fire if they score the first point. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential: You're able to knock opponents down. On top of that, this can be used as a strategy - if a player is a little too strong for you, just gang up on them so they will be swapped out during halftime. Because knocking opponents down not only stops them, it can also weaken them. | |
