@@MrBubblecake "Nostalgia"? I played this game for the first time in 2006. I found it really thrilling, even if graphically outdated. How can I be "nostalgic" of something I discovered more than a decade after?
1993. The first appearance. First version. You are right. It' s a great game. I saw, in internet (UA-cam) a new version, called "NBA JAM - on fire - LEGENDS". I do not know how we can install this. If someone knows... It' s the BEST version of this game, so far...

I swear I played an arcade machine that had this amazing synthesizers theme song playing that I never found or heard again. Not even on any Mame rom versions. Until I played an emulator SNES version which has that exact music (totally different from Megadrive version). To this day that arcade music still eludes me.
always played with the Seattle Supersonics. Jordan was my favorite player but since he wasn't in the game my second favorite player in the 90's was the Reign Man, Shawn Kemp
I may have only been an infant with this game come out, but i don’t find it real hard to comprehend why it was so popular. Why this game didn’t feature Michael Jordan is beyond me.
I love how insane the statlines can get. My guy Pippen really had the greatest game in NBA history here. 91 points on 40/49 shooting with zero free throws and 56 steals is ludicrous 😭
Cuando era chiquito en la casa de mis primos y recuerdo con estuche la portada de nba jam de SEGA génesis tenia imagenes del juego pero tiene esperar años después jugué en la compu de mi hermano me gustó mucho ese basket por eso sigo jugando ese clásico deporte.
Damn, I remember this game! I don't play sports games anymore but this, NFL Blitz, Wayne Gretzky 3D Hockey, and College Slam were all amazing games! You know, back when you paid for a game and got the whole game....before the great milking began.
Gamers have nobody to blame but themselves for that, it’s the idiots who justify it and continue to spend their money to get an advantage who re responsible for this system. If everyone refused to spend money, I guarantee they’d stop
NBA Jam is one of the main reasons why i like basketball so much (but ironically i don't watch too much NBA nowadays, im sticking with cibacopa, LNBP both mexican leagues and the filipino league) anyways, this game was great! probably one of the best sports games of all time
The release of NBA Jam popularized a subgenre of basketball based around fast action and exaggerated realism, a formula Midway later applied to the sports of hockey (NHL Open Ice and NHL Hitz), American football (NFL Blitz), and baseball (MLB Slugfest). Midway had also developed Power Up Baseball around 1996 based on the same concepts as NBA Jam, but it 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.
I agree, i had this game on the mega drive/genisis. The only sporting game, with no rules just pure gameplay action. Plus breaking the law of gravity, with those slam dunks! Awesome.
I broke this game at the arcade by being shaq and timing the jump perfectly to do a goal tend without it being called a goal tend lol. Grown men would cry and call cheating…I was 14 years old taking away their manhood lol
How truly bad were the Mavericks back then when one of their two featured players in NBA Jam (Iuzzolino) was a guy who averaged nine points per game? He also didn’t play more than a couple seasons in the NBA lol
It' s a very impressive game. I noticed a “new” version, called “NBA JAM on fire edition - LEGENDS”. It' s a mod, or something, I don' t know exactly. I want to ask, if someone knows how we can find it and install on an ANDROID phone. Please, show the steps. How
Yeah I remember their being a new version with the same classic "look" but I don't remember what platform it was released on. I thought it was mobile But maybe not? Idk
1993 the first appearance. Classic. 1995 or 1996 NBA Hangtime. 2010 or 2011 a new version on many platforms. And mobile (Android). But! Soon, it appeared a better version called “NBA JAM on fire edition” which was the best one so far until then. (Sorry for my mistakes, very sorry of my english; I 'm not an english speaker) I saw a video, recently. A version that really impressed me. NBA JAM on fire edition - 2023 - Legends. I do not know though, how we could install this
Sorry for my english. I have not learnt the language. I 'll try to write something. 2010, maybe (if I remember) appeared a new version, for Playstation 3, and X-Box 360, was pretty good, better than the first one (the original) but not as much as we waited. (Sorry for my mistakes). Soon, very soon, they published an other similar version, called “NBA JAM, on fire edition”, which was the BEST version (of all) so far! But, they sold it unfortunately ONLY via internet! Not in a box. They published that version on phones, too. In my language, I would be able to explain better, now I just hope... not to make great mistakes on grammar, or in explanation. Sorry, again. This (on fire) was the best version, THAT version we want to find, and play! EA stopped this version! We can' t find the game anymore, and install! I saw recently some great videos with an amazing newer “hacked” version, called “NBA JAM - LEGENDS”. But, I am afraid, that it' s a mod ONLY for the lucky owners of a PLAYSTATION 3. I do not know other details. I did not find a way to have this game.
For some reason NBA hangtime looks much better, and have better sound and music compared to this. It doesn't even look like the Arcade, it looks and sounds more like a Genesis lol.

Truly one of the best sports games of all time.
Yeah - I'm not much of a sports game fan, but I really enjoyed this
Perfect example of how nostalgia makes people delusional
@@MrBubblecake "Nostalgia"? I played this game for the first time in 2006. I found it really thrilling, even if graphically outdated. How can I be "nostalgic" of something I discovered more than a decade after?
I bet it will be even greater with today’s NBA teams and players.

You had to really be alive during this time to really understand how popular this game was...
On one of the biggest screens in the arcade, with the volume up louder than surrounding machines...
The fact jordan wasn't in this game was a crime against humanity.
Facts... should have been Jordan and Pippin instead we got Horace Grant 😒

@@FigureFarter I remember that game
Stuff like this and NFL Blitz made these sport games actually fun.
same creator and developer
NFL Blitz sucked😂
I love how consistent the play by play was between this and NFL Blitz.
same man created it and worked on them
13 friggen years old when this game came out 😮😮😮😮 time flys people
"Stay in school" 🤣
Meanwhile, kids would literally stay home from school just to play this and older kids would ditch school to go play it at the arcade lol
That "Here's The Tip!" soundclip is still embedded in my brain all these years later!
This is a classic period. Thanks for the video AL
I remember playing this at the laundromat as a kid.
Ah NBA JAM, one of the first games that told me to stay in school
The backboard smash was my goal every time I played.
It still looks amazing even today
Met the man who announces this game down Pittsburgh at a gaming convention. Tim is super cool.
The cherry on the cake was breaking the backboard,and you delivered.good job!
Damn even the beep noise when selecting a team brings back memories
This game contributed to the already exciting real life 90s basketball. Good times
My childhood, I only I have played this game here on SNES, this port is so amazing.
I swear I played an arcade machine that had this amazing synthesizers theme song playing that I never found or heard again. Not even on any Mame rom versions.
Until I played an emulator SNES version which has that exact music (totally different from Megadrive version). To this day that arcade music still eludes me.
one of the best game i have played when i young ^^ A very long play with defeat of all teams will be awmesome !
I just bought it on Amazon. 🕹 2023
One of few actually fun sport games. Loved it on SEGA
There were a lot of fun sports games on genesis
@@davidkruse4030 I only know this one, Mutant League Hockey, and WWE Wrestlemania. All the other banal simulators.
Hey broz u wanna unblock me after I blocked u?
How my eyes lit up as a middle school kid when I saw this in the corner store. This game blew my mind.
always played with the Seattle Supersonics. Jordan was my favorite player but since he wasn't in the game my second favorite player in the 90's was the Reign Man, Shawn Kemp
This game takes me back to memory lane 😢 good ol times
I may have only been an infant with this game come out, but i don’t find it real hard to comprehend why it was so popular. Why this game didn’t feature Michael Jordan is beyond me.
Jordan wanted too much money for his likeness in it .
I used to play in the arcades, the best sports game, the commentator audio is hilarious
I thought my arcade speaker was broken but glad to hear that chirping noise in the background is standard in the game lol
I remember when I played it...brings me memories
I love how insane the statlines can get. My guy Pippen really had the greatest game in NBA history here.
91 points on 40/49 shooting with zero free throws and 56 steals is ludicrous 😭
Had to have had some super defense code on. That was an insane amount of steals
Cuando era chiquito en la casa de mis primos y recuerdo con estuche la portada de nba jam de SEGA génesis tenia imagenes del juego pero tiene esperar años después jugué en la compu de mi hermano me gustó mucho ese basket por eso sigo jugando ese clásico deporte.
Dude your good at this game
I don't even like basketball but we'd always play this first when free play Sunday was on.
I spent a lot of money on this as well as on Cruisin USA.
I don't see much "A.I. rubberbanding" here.
4:58 Pippen.
Terrible shot!
*goes in*
Gets a lucky bounce!

No you had to pay 50 cents per quarter so it was $2 for the game
One of the all-time classic video arcade games along with Street Fighter 😂
In my opinion, I think Scottie was the best player on this game.
will smith was

Wow time flies, my friends and I played this like crazy back in the day.. I always heard there was a secret code to get Shaq?
Those Friday nights at pizza hut in the 90s were timeless playing this
Wouldn't trade it for anything
I wanna go back to these days
I remember . And the mortal kombat carácters

Favorite line, “whoooaaaa, BoOM shakalaka!!!”
“From Downtown…!”
Classic. I was a youngin'. Damn
The best part of NBA Jam was if you attempted a dunk in the dying seconds and time ran out. The announcer would say "BAD DECISION!"
Do codes work for the arcade version?
Muito bom, joguei muito na minha infância aqui no Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Remember, this is an educational game!
It tells you to stay in school!
I agree, i had this game on the mega drive/genisis. The only sporting game, with no rules just pure gameplay action. Plus breaking the law of gravity, with those slam dunks! Awesome.
Perfect finish
Too bad MJ wasn't on the game. Everyone would've picked Chicago.
Are you going to play the whole league? I'd recommend better Tournament Edition for that, tho.
I played It approx 14 seconds ago,
Classic game.
Why do the graphics not look this good on the 1up arcade game?
NFL Blitz is the football version of NBA Jam.
Now the next thing is “campaign mode”: playing the other 26 teams.
I'll probably do this for one of the home conversions ;)
@@AL82RetrogamingLongplays arcade version is the best 👍
Can you do this for NBA Showtime: NBA on NBC
I wish Michael jordan was in the game
What a blow out 😲
They should re release a super insane version of this
I miss this game so much. I wish they would put all the sega games on xbox pc app
How did you play this? Been looking for a way. Was hoping it was on the Switch but nope.
Did this game have the phrase "Boom shakalaka" ?
I used to have a cheat code on this game where I would dunk from all the way from the other side of the court
Nice play here
Scottie was still 3 points short of Wilt haha
auto_awesome
Amazing game. But...don't you remember it with more definition? I remember the characters were sharpier
I love this game because you can unlock will smith and bill clinton and Merlin the wizard and several mk characters
Brad lohaus …. Wow….. nice throwback
I loved it!
Comment jouer a ce jeu ? merci
Kept waiting for the CPU rubber band and was disappointed
😂😂😂😂😂😂 I would’ve walked away if this was me losing angry and all
How do you steal the ball so easily?
I broke this game at the arcade by being shaq and timing the jump perfectly to do a goal tend without it being called a goal tend lol. Grown men would cry and call cheating…I was 14 years old taking away their manhood lol
Does this emulate well ?
Pippen! Terrible shot...gets a lucky bounce! Steal...by Pippen, finger roll! He's heating up!
Ah the 90s
This probably would be the final score in reality Derrick Harper was a "decent" player but I never heard of this Iuzzolino guy( ???)
How truly bad were the Mavericks back then when one of their two featured players in NBA Jam (Iuzzolino) was a guy who averaged nine points per game?
He also didn’t play more than a couple seasons in the NBA lol
Jim Jackson would have been in this game if he didn't hold out for like half a season
I wish Sega and SNES was as good as this
🎮 Classic!!!
This game is really good And the AI rival is really bad like in mortal kombat 2 and 3

Bulls without MJ. Just the way Pippen and Grant wanted it.
Pippen!
このゲーム面白かったんだよなぁ… (〃ω〃)
56 steals 😭
Either it cost too $ much to put Jordan in this game or he had already left for his Baseball career before his comeback
