It is the first entry in the NBA Jam (More) NBA Jam is a basketball arcade game created by Midway in 1993. It is the first entry in the NBA Jam series, and was written entirely in assembly language. The main designer and programmer for this game was Mark Turmell.[1][2] The release of NBA Jam gave rise to a new genre of sports games which were based around action-packed, unrealistic gameplay. The arcade version features team rosters from the 1992-93 NBA season and the console versions use rosters from the 1993-94 NBA season. More up to date ports were released for the Sega CD, Game Boy, and Game Gear later in 1994. Midway did not secure the license to use Michael Jordan's name or likeness, and as such he was not available as a player for the Chicago Bulls or any other team (although Bulls teammate Scottie Pippen was given Jordan-esque attributes, perhaps to make up for this absence). Another notable absence from the home version is Shaquille O'Neal, although he did appear on the arcade version as a member of the Orlando Magic.
===========================================
Midway, no stranger to releasing landmark games (having earlier released Ms. Pac-Man), had started experimenting with the ideas two years earlier, with the High Impact series. Both High Impact and Super High Impact had somewhat average success in arcades. The gameplay of NBA Jam is based on Arch Rivals, another 2-on-2 basketball game released by Midway in 1989. However, it was the release of NBA Jam that brought mainstream success to the genre. The game became exceptionally popular, and generated a significant amount of money for arcades after its release, largely because of the fairly expensive prices for game play. The typical cost to play a full game of NBA Jam ranged from $1.00 to $2.00. Nonetheless, the game was a smash hit. The original arcade release made $1 billion in quarters.
==========================================
NBA Jam, which featured 2-on-2 basketball, was one of the first real playable basketball arcade games, and was also one of the first sports games to feature NBA-licensed teams and players, and their real digitized likenesses. A key feature of NBA Jam was the exaggerated nature of the play - players jumped many times above their own height, making slam dunks that defied both human capabilities and the laws of physics. There were no fouls, free throws, or violations except goaltending. This meant the player was able to freely shove his opponent out of the way. Additionally, the game had an "on fire" feature, where if one player made three baskets in a row, he would become "on fire" and have unlimited turbo, no goaltending, and increased shooting ability, until the other team scored. The game is filled with easter eggs, special features and players activated by initials or button/joystick combinations. Early versions of the sequel, NBA Jam Tournament Edition, allowed players to put in codes that allowed people to play as characters from Mortal Kombat, but the NBA, uneasy over the controversies surrounding Mortal Kombat's levels of violence, forced Midway to remove these characters in later updates.
===========================================
Note: Some home console versions of NBA Jam were coded later than others, and as a result of real-life roster changes or (in the cases of Charles Barkley and Shaquille O'Neal) legal reasons, some rosters differ from version to version.
