      The three decades after the 90s have been trash for sure. Not sure if they match the dumpster fires of the 1910s-40s, but they’re down there. This game has so many Marv-isms in the announcer lines, from “Yes!” To “Delivers a facial!” It takes me back.🥹

    The game was devised after Midway's previous arcade release Total Carnage (1992) failed to meet sales expectations. Lead designer and programmer Turmell wanted to develop a game with a wider appeal and decided to mix the digitized graphics of some of Midway's previous titles to create a title similar to Midway's previous basketball game Arch Rivals (1989). Midway was able to procure a license from the NBA, paying royalties of $100 for each unit sold. The NBA initially reacted negatively to the game feeling that an arcade game was wrong for the branding; however, after a second pitch, they eventually became convinced of its potential. In one of Midway's original pitch videos to the NBA, they stated that they planned on including various additional features. These included different camera angles, tips from coaches, instant replays and a first-person view on fast breaks. None of these features were included in the final game. The graphics for the NBA players were created from digitized video footage of several amateur basketball players, including future NBA player Stephen Howard. These players were available as secret characters in certain versions of the game.

    I thought... Surely the first play of the 2nd quarter will show me just what the Bulls are going to do. Here is what I saw: 4:31
    An excellent play develops later. As the play begins... The Bulls stumble. They almost gave away an easy two points. Pippen drops a wicked recovery-to-block-to-assist of the year candidate. What a play: 5:28

    Utah Jazz - John Stockton and Karl Malone.

    NBA Jam was the third basketball video game released by Midway, after TV Basketball (1974) and Arch Rivals (1989).
    The NBA Jam games were ported to many home video game consoles as well as PC, beginning with the original's debut on the highly publicized Jam Day (March 4, 1994). Console versions were well known for featuring many new secret characters; the home versions of Jam T.E. even allowed the player to use then-President Bill Clinton, First Lady Hillary Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, and Atari's Vice President of Software Development Leonard Tramiel on the Atari Jaguar version. Acclaim published the console versions and later ended up winning the exclusive rights to use the NBA Jam name.
    Acclaim used the name on NBA Jam Extreme in 1996, a 3D version of Jam which featured Marv Albert doing commentary (whereas the previous games by Midway had Tim Kitzrow doing an impression of Albert on the commentary). The game was a flop in comparison to Midway's version released that same year, rechristened NBA Hangtime. Hangtime added a create-a-player option to the usual batch of new features combined with classic, but refined NBA Jam gameplay. An update called NBA Maximum Hangtime was subsequently released.
    Also in 1996, Acclaim released a collegiate version of NBA Jam for home consoles entitled College Slam. Although the game was created to capitalize on the popularity of March Madness and the subsequent Final Four, it did not enjoy the popularity of the earlier NBA Jam games.
    The release of NBA Jam gave rise to a new genre of basketball sports games which were based around fast, action-packed gameplay and exaggerated realism, a formula which Midway would also later reused the concept for apply to the sports of football (NFL Blitz), hockey (2 on 2 Open Ice Challenge, later NHL Hitz, Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey), baseball (MLB Slugfest), and wrestling (WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game). Midway had also developed Power Up Baseball around 1996 based on the same concepts as NBA Jam, but was cancelled as they found the game did not test well due to the
    large number of paid plays users would need to complete one game, among other issues. Midway produced successors to the series with 3-D graphics, NBA Showtime: NBA on NBC and NBA Hoopz. Acclaim continued to keep the name alive with its console games, although the games were only mildly popular.
    After making the switch to develop console games exclusively, Midway used Jam's idea on several other sports, with NFL Blitz, NHL Hitz, MLB Slugfest, and RedCard 20-03. Many of Jam's influences remained in their games including the NBA Ballers series.
    On October 5, 2010, EA Sports released a new version of NBA Jam for the Wii. The game was later ported to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in November 2010. Original NBA Jam creator Mark Turmell was hired to work on this new version in conjunction with EA Vancouver. Following the game's critical and commercial success, a follow-up, NBA Jam: On Fire Edition was released on October 4, 2011 on PSN and XBLA on October 5, 2011.
    In 2020, Tastemakers LLC released a 3/4 scale replica of the original NBA Jam cabinet featuring emulated versions of the original arcade game, along with Tournament Edition and Hangtime, with newly added online play.

      I had college slam (u sure that was the name?)
      Any way, the graphics were a major improvement, that's what grabbed me initially.
      The downside for me at least, was no player names, no real players. It had real college teams.
      I know now about college rules and why there was no player likeness.
      But that really zapped the fun out of the game for me.
      But I do remember the graphics being near arcade quality

    By the way, you did NOT want to be the Mavericks in this game or the Tournament Edition. In those two seasons alone, the head coach was fired, the _interim_ head coach was fired, the coach they hired to replace _HIM_ was fired, and they had to beg Dick Motta out of retirement just to get going again! Even Motta couldn't turn them around, and he retired in disgrace after being fired by the Denver Nuggets in 1997. The Mavericks were a first-class joke until they drafted Dirk Nowitzki.
