I wanna cry when i watch this i just miss being 11 years old with no worries coming home from school playing basketball at the courts then coming in the house and play this all night miss the old days
For those saying this is "crap". Think twice. Show respect. Cause without nba 2k or nba 2k1...we will never have nba 2k14. Just saying. And it is not too bad considering how old this gameplay is.
diarraleone They were. This game was really good for its time. Obviously compared to the games we have today, it's nothing. But back then it was amazing.
💪🏾 sega went all out and made games on this system high definition as possible they knew that the fact that this will be last console idk how people talk shit about this system for most people like myself is still underrated
@@zm_assmcgee8404 It may be the most underrated system of all time! I think I'd actually put it there really, especially considering it was Sega's last console. There was plenty of hype building up, especially with their 9.9.99 campaign, but rarely did systems actually live up to the hype, and then exceed it in my opinion. The Dreamcast for its time was really ahead of its time by a good 7 or 8 years. I think that highly of its sound, graphics, and gameplay capabilities
I remember when I got this day one. I wasn’t a huge basketball game fan since the only ones I had played at the time were NBA Jam (good but not realistic and was not deep), and Super Slam Dunk (pretty bad) but I heard great things about the first one was good and wanted a sports game so I picked this up. It was awesome.
This game also had an incredible attention to detail that none of the later games had. For instance zoom in closely on Allen Iverson's middle fingers and he is wearing finger bands that crystal clear have #3 on them. Reggie Miller had his trademark armband, Tyrone Hill has his fingers taped up, Scottie Pippen has a "PIP" elbow pad. You never saw that type of stuff before and you actually don't see those little details in any of the current games! The facial expressions in these games were really groundbreaking as well though NBA Courtside 2 for N64 also featured amazing facial likenesses with moving features. There is a lot about these games to appriciate
@Joey Ford WOW the fact that this system was a fail that killed off sega in consoles is not trolling fuck head or are you to stupid to notices the deadcast was a failure of a system
@Joey Ford No one is trolling here fuck head When you have a company like EA not caring to release there games on your system.. i CALL THAT A FAIL fuck turd
Im sure people who didnt experience NB2K (the very first NBA2K game, which is for dc only) at its release could never imagine how it felt like to play the game at that time. It was such a leap forwards, not only the phenomenal graphics, but also the fantastic gameplay. NBA2K1 was obviously improved and also a bombastic experience, especially with the newly added online mode.
Yeah back when I rented this game as a kid, the graphics were so amazing to me and I thought it was real life lol. It was so crazy to have the legends in the game too like Dr j, bird etc, a street ball mode and just all around more realistic gameplay than what live was doing at the time. I was a 2k fan ever since.
Man I was born in the early 2000s but my uncle gave me his Dreamcast as a hand me down and I grew up playing 2K1, Virtua Tennis, and Soul Calibur like all the time. I actually still have the Dreamcast but I just don’t play with it anymore. Memories
I remember when I got my dreamcast back in 2001. Man I had all the 2k games. Basketball, football and hockey. That was the best system that came out. Plus the first one that went online. I had the limited edition black one. That was gaming back then because you had friends over your house instead of talking on a headset.
That spin move with Iverson or Kobe was such a cheese. You can score 70 with 4 minute quarters with just that move lol. Loved this game on Dreamcast. Classic indeed.
It feels like yesterday that I got this and the keyboard for Christmas 2000 and we were up all night playing online console basketball for the first time ever, so fun! The one thing I really miss about these old games is that you could swing your elbows when you came down with a rebound and could literally clear people to the ground without getting a foul called lol. NBA 2K2 was also awesome, the Dreamcast games were so great. Miles ahead of basketball games before it. The series lost its way for quite a while on Xbox/PS2 but it became really good again with NBA 2K11.
Riley N. Somebody needs to go back and watch shaq hit them when it counted in the 3pt run including 9 for 9 in gm4 of the western conference finals in 2000.
man the first few 2ks had the best immersive and heartfelt intros. the devs/editors really wanted the gamer to experience the NBA rather than just a video game in of itself. fast foward 20 years and they have gotten rid of any sort of cinematic intros/highlight reels on the game start up :/ the early 2ks were art in its purest and simplest form. no fancy gimmicks, pay to win/play to earn, just a homey, feel-good basketball video game type vibe. start up 2k3 and you'll see what im talking about. the presentation is great and makes you feel like you're at ESPN or somethin
I remember going to Epcot at Disneyworld and they had a Sega centre where you could play dreamcast genesis games.. the first time I saw NBA 2k as a kid I pretty much soiled myself at the graphics ;)
Hey for those who were around in the nineties this was the best graphics I have ever seen and it took over ps1 and n64 even the dunk animations were really good I mean NBA 2k 1 was an awesome game then NBA live until I think NBA live 03 and 04 was good as well I hope they manufacture another Dreamcast cause the graphics were so awesome
Yes it was better,but the Dreamcast was considered 6th gen,not 5th gen like PS1 or 64. Sega rushed the release of the Dreamcast costing them in the end.
this is a game that I'm fall in love on first sight. 2K put some serious amount of new stuff in virtual basketball games. first you notice, back then, is signature moves/dunks for players depending what position they are play. for example centers have power hammer slams, but lower guys have better agility and can pull reverse, 360', windmills etc. very satisfying if you ask me. also they introduce signature tattoos, shoes and more. thank you 2k
Sad thing is this was made 10 years ago and it still looks like nba live 14 haha.. If anyone bought nba live I feel sorry for you nba 2k on Xbox one is sweet!!
Just bought a Dreamcast on eBay for my son's 10th birthday so that he can experience the same love I had for my favorite console ever. Awesome memories of playing this online.
This might be the first game that licensed actual music. The upgrade from 2k was big. I loved this game. My grizzlies season....2000 gone, dreamcast gone, and Vancouver Grizzlies gone. :( I graded in 2000, it's been 21 years since high school.....so sad.
I remember back in sept 2001 when I was playing pvp online and used Rasheed Wallace to swat an alley oop, that KG was about to throw down, into the stands. My buddy, who witnessed it while chilling in my living room, still talks about it to this day, haha.
I remember in 2001 how "jaw dropping" that basketball in the loading screen looked. After seeing NBA live 06 on the 360. That made pre 2005 games look dated. I'm was like, "you can see the sweat!!!!"
2k4 and 2k5 were awesome they had the 24/7 mode.... then 2k7 cause it had the 2k reel maker and and 1 street moves... then of course 2k11 cause it brought Jordan in for the first time.
I bought a dreamcast just for this game. It was the best basketball game at the time. Much better than NBA Live. It still looks pretty decent even 18 years later.
This was a huge leap forward in game mechanics and graphics at the time. It almost didn’t seem real. I don’t think we have had such a graphical leap yet. Playing online was a blast. This is and PSO for Dreamcast stole my teen years. I loved this system.
I still like this game better than some of the previous 2K titles (Excluding the last 2) Those are on point. I've played every single 2K game and own them all.
WHOA....This was considered revolutionary when it came out and here it is 10 years later 2k11 technology and expectations....time have changed and im a kid
2k wow I remember me my brother and my cousin use to go hard in this game we use to play Seasons in this game.. Then the following season we will put the old players on the regular team to make it harder.
Just got my Dreamcast Christmas gift yesterday. But I will say 2k1 on all star level is way harder than 2k on all star level. Probably the sliders are different because an inside scorer will always get his shot blocked on all star level

You knew it was legendary when you heard Redman’s Da Goodness.
The best basketball game ever made. Garnett was the best player at 99 overall. His defense was superb.
the dramcast was a game breaking system
Still proves you can have 1 song and be better than most soundtracks out today during these games. These games were great.
2k shouldn't have taken out the starting lineup introductions
Esquivalience they didnt u jus skipit
Played this game religiously
These were the best years of my life. This video makes me happy and sad.

Loved sports games on the Dreamcast. They looked way better than the Ps1 or the N64.
The Dreamcast was much more powerful than both those consoles, so yeah
Crazy how Vince Carter still in the league in 2020
LOL. This was my first Game Ever. Dang I miss my childhood
Bruh! I had the black Dreamcast day 1 and had nba2k and 2k1. The whole neighbor thought it looked real back then. I miss them days.
Why are you showing nba live 14 gameplay?
Man this game was so good I loved Dreamcast I still have mine
you can see the potential in this game even back then. 2k has great SIM fundamentals the cheesers ruin it

bring back memories when i use to play till 6 in the morning lol
This game was ahead of its time for real lol
Sad thing is this was made 10 years ago and it still looks like nba live 14 haha.. If anyone bought nba live I feel sorry for you nba 2k on Xbox one is sweet!!
Some of the dunk animations are better than today 😂
Yoooooooooo this intro was godly
good old days
Memories I tell you. Were going wayyyyy back and 2k17 finna come out in october
This was my favorite game when it came out and I wish we could still play at the street courts!
the commentary in this game was pioneering.
Remember playing this when i was a kid.
Oh Kobe playing his final game today
Rest in peace #kobe
damn bruh. 😕
I mean I would play this
This is really good for a game made in 2000
so this is what people played 14 years ago
It was awesome
The reason i wanted a DC.
Just bought a Dreamcast on eBay for my son's 10th birthday so that he can experience the same love I had for my favorite console ever. Awesome memories of playing this online.
Still better than Live 16

my favorite game of all time...
Everything about this game is fantastic!
it was all our young eyes knew shit I remember when I thought NBA Courtside on the 64 looked amazing....
it still looks good. dreamcast is just legendary. NBA should be on its knees for sega making its sport more popular
My first 2k ever.

wtf hahahahahha live 14 way from 2001 wich im not born yet hahahahahaha
Just saying the graphics for live 14 are horrible

Still going to be better than live 14 :)

Ea, i suggest you look at this video for ideas for nba live 15
Yeah I had this one too...I can't really remember what was my favorite nba2k. I'm thinking it was around 2k2 where I really just loved it.
2k4 and 2k5 were awesome they had the 24/7 mode.... then 2k7 cause it had the 2k reel maker and and 1 street moves... then of course 2k11 cause it brought Jordan in for the first time.
live was lit from 2003 to 2006 after that trash
nba live 2010 was the best live
2k needs to add the player intros and the action replays cause on these original games those look awesome and cool af
I'm watching this in 2016
Same
Same
Same
same
Same too
I wish 2k still had player introductions like this, at least for key games and allstar games
DANG!!!!! this is old!!!
I bought a dreamcast just for this game. It was the best basketball game at the time. Much better than NBA Live. It still looks pretty decent even 18 years later.
Such an unrealistic game. Not talking graphics wise, just saying cause Shaq actually makes free throws in this game.
true tho lol
Lmao true but it kicked NBA lives ass
Bro its a game
damn now 2k19 is out
maybe it was luck :P
Perfect game. Still now
At leAst it's better than 2k17

dont see any improvement from this game to 2k14. in fact, this game is better.

Telvin Beauregard He's right, this is better than 2k14. Next Gen is shit compared to the classics.
Ppl like u should just keep their ps1

The last great 2k was 2K11... aka, the Jordan game.
loooks like nba live
I grew up playing nba live and ncaa basketball. Then switched to 2k sports because of college hoops 2k8
A decade before smart phones
