If you’re new to the genre of NBA games, any of these NBA games, except maybe Tecmo’s NES NBA Basketball, are a great start to getting you acclimated to the NBA video game scene. I say “except maybe” because the controls can be a little awkward to get used to for Tecmo’s NES NBA Basketball.NBA Hangtime, released in 1996 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Nintendo 64, is an underrated basketball game that brought “3D-esque” basketball to tv screens and video game owners across the world. There’s also NBA Showdown for the SNES and Sega Genesis.
Other NBA games not seen on here (as of yet) include Tecmo Super NBA Basketball, and Beam Software’s SNES NBA All-Star Challenge. There’s also Park Place Productions’ NES title Roundball: 2 on 2 Challenge. There’s also Super Slam Dunk for the SNES. Another such title is Ultimate Basketball for the NES. The Genesis got Lakers versus Celtics and the NBA Playoffs in 1991. Arch RIvals came out for the NES and other platforms in 1980-circa 2002 depending on the console.There’s also All-Star Basketball for the NES in 1989. Konami released NBA Give ‘n Go in 1995. Also in 1995, the Genesis got NBA Action ’95. In 1996, College Slam – a College-focused Basketball game – was released for the Super NES, or SNES in short. Z-Axis released FOX Sports College Hoops ‘99 in 1998. Jobe Bryant, a LA Lakers Player, got his own Nintendo 64 game in the form of Kobe Bryant in NBA Courtside for the N64, courtesy of Left Field Productions.
