@@MegaBronsky1 Actually the joke's on you, since this particular version of the game was NOT released on the 32X though! 😉You're thinking of the sequel, that was NBA Jam: Tournament Edition, which WAS on that console, and several others. The Sega CD had the overall best port of the original NBA Jam I.M.O., even if it was still far from arcade perfect however.
@@dajcarroll30 Definitely. The Saturn version was amazing too for certain though, albeit with slightly lesser quality than the PS1 port. That was when those consoles could initially do near arcade perfect ports of games back then as well.
this is the only sports game I could ever tolerate... (that's of course not including _Microsoft Motocross Madness 1 or 2_ of which I was the MSN Gaming Zone #1 _Rated Race_ player in Supercross for like 3 weeks & Nationals for like 18 months...)
I think I got it worked out. At the 960 setting, I notice the screen cuts off at the top and bottom if I set the filter settings right. I can then use that for my Sega emulator without going to full screen. ^_^
Do you know if there's any way to get a 800x600 window size in Kega Fusion? The middle size they offer is a little small for me, and the 3rd size is too large. I'm trying to customize the window size. If I could, then Fusion would be the only emulator I use.
AtariBorn the quality and variety of those sound effects in the SNES NBA JAM destroys, eats, kills the music in Sega Genesis/Mega-Drive NBA JAM + Sega CD conversion/port of NBA JAM
Exactly. At least we got it with 32x but I feel they could have done it sooner. Either it can't scale multiple sprites back and forth at different times freely and fast enough "the players and ball can get a little hectic." or they were lazy.
That, and this (and other home console versions of the game) also didn't have the announcer say the name's of the players like the arcade game did either. Not sure if that was simply because of console limitations, and/or also due to laziness either.
Same was the case with the original Mortal Kombat on Sega CD, which many were expecting to be a near arcade perfect port, but was sadly nothing more than an ever so slightly enhanced Genesis version though.
@@willpowerrazorblade6436 Though the Sega CD was able to have slightly better detail and animation with the graphics (along with far better sound), but didn't do anything to improve among the grainy color palette the Genesis had though.
Majerle! For two! No good! Graaaabs the rebound! Whoooaaaa, jams it in! From long range....swish! O’Neal....to Skiles! At the buzzer! :HONK: IT’S GOOD!
Shouldve said Barkley. The version I always played, even on SNES was Barklet/Majerle. They later changed it to Kevin Johnson. None of the home versions had Shaq. They replaced him with Nick Anderson.
None of the home console versions of NBA Jam did so until the ports of Tournament Edition for the Jaguar, Sega Saturn, and PS1. Not even the Sega 32X edition could do so either. Not sure if it was due to limitations, or pure laziness either.
@@jasonlee7816 get the hq filters and Set full screen resolution to HD resolution 720p or higher I do mine like that. My Mortal Kombat comes through clean
for real..? They have 700MB of storage and the best thing they could do was this garbage? the 32x version is much better .. I can't believe they miss the capacity of the sega cd and the capacity of storage and processor of the sega cd.

Other than the load times, I think this is the best console version. Would spend hours playing this as a kid.
32x laugh on this

The Playstation 1 version was the best version of NBA JAM. It was NBA JAM TE, but still. It was damn near the arcade.
@@dajcarroll30 Definitely. The Saturn version was amazing too for certain though, albeit with slightly lesser quality than the PS1 port. That was when those consoles could initially do near arcade perfect ports of games back then as well.
@@freakyfornash I thought the Saturn was better then the PS1 version.
God,I miss the 90's :(
exactly even the video games felt fresher nowadays the new ones are just rehashed remade recycled or repetitive
Capcom 90s arcade games were the best...plus Konami and Taito!!
TONYskittlezzz I liked MIDWAY's arcade games the best.
OMG tell me about it.
ChariotManVideos If only we had time machines. Go back to '94,try and save Kurt Cobain's life and abort Justin Beiber.
I still have this system with this game and more
That NBA Jam background music brings so much memories of my teenage years
My childhood
this is the only sports game I could ever tolerate... (that's of course not including _Microsoft Motocross Madness 1 or 2_ of which I was the MSN Gaming Zone #1 _Rated Race_ player in Supercross for like 3 weeks & Nationals for like 18 months...)
Wish I still had my SCD and NBA Jam =(
Get you an nba jam arcade one up arcade machine they are Amazing only 400 bucks
The iguana is funny
I must have something set wrong because I only get 3 window sizes - 320x240, 640x480, and 960x720.
I do full screen 1280x 720
“YAS!”
sega was the best back then before xbox one and ps4
Lol, I think ya skipped a couple of generations there buddy!
LOL i like how the Sega CD make music better but the graphic is still shitty like the genesis versions
That was the case with most Sega CD games... very unfortunate... there was quite a bit of untapped power in the CD/32X back then.
ronjon83 how do you know the power in 32X and Mega/Sega CD games were untapped? list games you believe were
Said another way, Snes still a better port than Sega CD
Did Sega mega drive by the way, use alot of the Amigas music / style?
Claus P when Sega designed the Genesis/MD console i believe the Amiga might've served as the base both had different audio/sound chip
I wish they woukd have put more talking in this version and had the audience movie. They could have even had the bigger and smaller sorites

960 x 720 is best for windowed
Whats better this or Sega 32x version. I would have to say sega 32x was the best version of this game
NBA Jam T.E. was on the Sega 32X. This is the original.
BoredBro.com a fair 16-bit comparison of NBA Jam Genesis/MegaDrive, SNES, Mega/Sega CD the SNES had the best looking 16-bit conversion of NBA Jam
Jason Lee But not the best version because it had no music during gameplay.
AtariBorn the quality and variety of those sound effects in the SNES NBA JAM destroys, eats, kills the music in Sega Genesis/Mega-Drive NBA JAM + Sega CD conversion/port of NBA JAM
AtariBorn having no music does NOT make another NBA JAM version better
Sega cd had hardware scaling why not use it on the players like the arcade had?
Good Question.
Exactly. At least we got it with 32x but I feel they could have done it sooner. Either it can't scale multiple sprites back and forth at different times freely and fast enough "the players and ball can get a little hectic." or they were lazy.

I did and I do have the latest version - Fusion 3.64. 3.65 isn't out yet.
Pretty much identical to the MegaDrive except the music.
The vocals are cleaner. But otherwise yea agree. Looks about the same.
pretty much identical to the original but with 10x as long load times
Same was the case with the original Mortal Kombat on Sega CD, which many were expecting to be a near arcade perfect port, but was sadly nothing more than an ever so slightly enhanced Genesis version though.
That's because it is still a SEGA genesis with CD enhanced features.
@@willpowerrazorblade6436 Though the Sega CD was able to have slightly better detail and animation with the graphics (along with far better sound), but didn't do anything to improve among the grainy color palette the Genesis had though.
They didn’t even call the players names in this version lol

I wonder if it's the emulator, or something to do with my monitor display settings.
Is this on HDTV? If so, you do you get it to look so crisp? On my TV, you can't read the player's names during gameplay, no matter what settings.
aggrostyle84 Nah, its not on a HDTV. I used a Sega emulator and then rendered it in HD.
+aggrostyle84 this is an emulation.
VideoGaming4U how do you render it in HD high definition?
@@jasonlee7816 get the hq filters and Set full screen resolution to HD resolution 720p or higher I do mine like that. My Mortal Kombat comes through clean
Will do. I have Gens as my Sega emulator for now, with Fusion as a backup.
THIS SOUNDTRACK IS 100% AWSOME, on second place, NBA JAM SNES with a personal rating of 94%, 3rd place, SEGA GENESIS VERSION witha 90% of score.
Where does the Arcade fit in to that? I like Arcade as much as CD though very different.
Skybolter SNES version sucks, jank gameplay, no music, few voices.
4:37 BOOM
Just get a 64 play NBA Hangtime
SEGA OVER SNES ALL DAY FOR SPORTS GAMES...NOT EVEN CLOSE.
for real..? They have 700MB of storage and the best thing they could do was this garbage?
the 32x version is much better .. I can't believe they miss the capacity of the sega cd and the capacity of storage and processor of the sega cd.
Different game though, wasn't it?
I think 32x was tournament edition like the Saturn was.
@@TheRetroManRandySavage Correct.
Even the snes version was better.
