If Tecmo had just did a straight port of this on XBLA and PSN it would have been awesome. Instead they made a sim/NBA Jam hybrid and it sucked horribly.
Still waiting for Tecmo to do a straight port of this for XBLA/PSN like they did with Tecmo Bowl Throwback.
Absolutely loved this game!!! Hated when my players would tear their ACL at the beginning of a season though. I use to own with the Magic though...Nick, Penny and Shaq would tag drop like 90 a night. Shaq would have like 9 blocks a game too lol.
I always felt like this game didn't ever go anywhere - but I did love how it says "block" when you block a shot. Too many charges called unless you just shoot jumpers every time. I do think Zeke tried to offer BJ a deal at halftime for 5 years, $90 mil during this game, anticipating his time as a great GM.
dont forget jordan is also on nba showndown for snes and this was after jordan left so it was supposed to be pete myers with jordan's stats left over like forward celtics is supposed to be the late reggie lewis but he died before th3 93 season started
On the SNES version, which I have and still play to this day, Jordan's name appears in the game. Supposedly the only basketball game that has Jordan's name.
Yeah, I have this game too for SNES. Jordan is on there, I don't know why he's not on this one. Actually Reggie Lewis is on mine too. Not sure Gerald Glass is on Detroit either, he's on the Timberwolves on mine.
the reason he isnt on there because when the snes version was release in 1993, he didnt announce his first retirement yet . on the genesis version that came out in 1994 he was out of the league and was playing baseball. that why he isnt in the genesis version.
10 B. Armstrong. This game is by Tecmo. Think he's related to Bass and Tina Armstrong? XD

Good game. This version for the NES was probably the best bball game on that system. Double Dribble would be a close #2

You know, oddly enough Tecmo had hellafied street cred with its sports games in the 90's. . .Almost more so than EA. . .

Not really. Jordan didn't opt out of his NBAPA contract until 1992. He's in every one of EA's games from Jordan vs. Bird through Bulls vs. Blazers.
