I remember playing the hell out of NBA Jam on SNES with friends...we'd use the hidden codes to unlock players like Bill Clinton, Mark Turmell, and other random guys...

I'd be interested for the nostalgia factor, but you guys are right. This was kinda popular when I was 12....Most younger gamers have no clue what it is.

I am with the majority on hating the Wii-exclusive decision, but it would probably be with the classic controls and not the motion controls, so a port would be very possible to PS3 and Xbox 360.

I would also love to see modern rosters and stuff, but why don't we get a full-blown NBA Street or something? They wasted the anticipation for their "new game" to just be an old game, on the Wii, that could easily be created for PC and modded with new rosters and played for free.

Ummmmmmmm why not make another NBA Streets....???

maybe they should get van earl wright to do the announcing. i remember him on a basketball game on the 3D0 system.. (dang im old.., and yes i did have a 3DO, and no i did not pay 700 bucks for it.. (had to use oven mitts to carry it home.. lol!) he was damn good on that one.. get him.. if hes still alive..

I agree to an extent.. the old game is a classic... this just screams ..."please buy this so we(EA) can get some type of NBA $$$".. hints to poor sales of Live and NCAA.
