NBA Showtime NBA on NBC 

 

NBA Showtime NBA on NBC is from Midway Games and plays like NBA JAM. I played the Dreamcast version which is what the EIC purchased for video capture coverage and for this review. Basketball teams from the late 1990s can be found in this home console video game.

NBA Showtime NBA on NBC has great audio. The announcers keep the excitement level in this game really high. NBA Showtime NBA on NBC also looks really good for its era. The players are huge, and there is variety in the stands. The counts also look great in NBA Showtime NBA on NBC.

It is much harder to get on fire in NBA Showtime NBA on NBC. Which is a shame because that is one of the coolest things in the NBA JAM franchise. The difficulty in NBA Showtime NBA on NBC starts at a five out of a possible ten. Gamers can adjust this however they want to make this sports game easier or harder.

NBA Showtime NBA on NBC is light on modes and options. It does keep good tracking of your stats. It also ranks players based on a variety of different things like points scored, three pointers made in a game, and more. All of this and it only takes up two VMU memory blocks. Why can’t other sports games be efficient with memory?

NBA Showtime NBA on NBC is a lot of fun especially when two or more family members play together. Note if you are playing a two player game, the second player must put their controller in port three. I know that is a real strange oddity. If you put your controller in port two you will play on the same team.

I wish there were more games like NBA Showtime NBA on NBC on the market today. Since that is not the case I will continue to enjoy this Dreamcast game until current video game companies can properly provide for what we want in video games.
