NBA Jam, a groundbreaking release from Midway in 1993, brought a new level of excitement to the sports arcade genre. This 2-on-2 basketball game introduced a fast-paced, action-packed gameplay style that put a fun, exaggerated twist on realism. NBA Jam features licensed NBA teams and players and their real digitized likenesses. Players can jump many times their own height, execute improbable slam dunks, and even catch on fire for unlimited turbo and increased shooting precision. The game also includes easter eggs, special features, and hidden players, contributing to its enduring popularity and status as the highest-earning arcade game of all time.
