Double Dribble is a two-player basketball game released in 1987 under license from Nintendo of America and produced by Konami for the PlayChoice-10 arcade system. Players control their chosen team as they navigate through increasingly difficult levels, attempting to score points against the opposing side. Gameplay involves dribbling, passing, shooting, and stealing the ball while facing off against computer-controlled opponents. The game utilizes a unique presentation on the PlayChoice-10 hardware, offering a distinct arcade experience compared to its home console counterpart. Using an 8-way joystick and two buttons, players direct their player’s movements and actions on the court in a fast-paced basketball contest. Each team strives to outmaneuver the other and ultimately achieve the highest score within each round. This version of Double Dribble represents Konami's contribution to the PlayChoice-10 library, providing a compact sports title for arcade environments.
