10 Best Original NBA Jam Starters By tyvick [25 more lists]

BOOMSHAKALAKA! Is it the SHOES?! If you say those words with childlike glee, then you probably grew up getting your hands sticky on all the disgusting, germ-ridden joysticks of typical 90s arcades, wasting hours and quarters on classics like NBA Jam. When Midway was a giant video game studio, these players reigned supreme in one of the first truly cool extreme takes on sports. Pump up your Nike Airs, get a fade haircut, hum some Ace of Bass and check out the best duos of one of the greatest video games of all time. Barkley and Majerle FTMFW.

"He's on fire"! I loved trying to make half court shots in NBA Jam every time I was on fire. Best game ever, alongside Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball of course.

This list is awesome. But, I think you're missing someone: Pippen without Jordan? Makes no sense.

    Thanks! And, to Joanna, I definitely would've added Jordan, but I don't think he was included due to legal reasons and his fantastic flop of a game Jordan in the Windy City, or some asinine name like that. You guys remember that one?

Mitch Richmond was one of the top 3 guys in the ORIGINAL NBA Jam. I don't even think Barkley was in the original. I have the 1st one and TE for SNES. Mitch Richmond was almost full in 3s, was full in speed, and full in dunks. Ridiculous.

They need to stop making video games realistic like the new NBA2k10 and go back to greats like NBA Jam... that game was just too much fun

When Midway released NBA Jam in the arcades in 1993, it became an instant smash hit, as players enjoyed the over-the-top arcade b-ball action. The following year Midway followed up with a sequel called NBA Jam Tournament Edition,

The NBA is a league run by marketers. Thus, it might not make sense for the Rockets to have Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming, but, in this game, they're on the team.
