NBA Jam Extreme (ver. 1.10I)

NBA Jam Extreme brings over-the-top arcade basketball action to the three-dimensional realm. Released in 1996 by Acclaim, this coin-operated game lets up to four players compete in fast-paced matches featuring exaggerated dunks and gravity-defying plays. Players control their favorite NBA athletes using an eight-way joystick and button controls to pass, shoot, steal, and slam dunk their way to victory. The game’s unique gameplay features allow for strategic manipulation of player stats through specific button combinations at the start of a match—maximizing abilities like three-point shooting or rebounding. Players can also alter the ball type with combinations such as using a soccer ball or beach ball for varied gameplay elements. A successor in the NBA Jam series, it followed earlier 2D titles and preceded later installments across various platforms including consoles and computers.
