ok, cool... but does it use regular controls on the Wii or some motion crapola scheme??

k, i found the controls in a GameSpot preview

Hold Z for turbo, hit A to pass, and flick the remote up in the air to shoot, dunk, block, or do anything that requires jumping into the air.
Holding Z and pressing B will do an ankle-breaker crossover, holding B after grabbing a rebound will throw a flurry of elbows, and holding C and flicking the remote will perform a pump fake.

Hey the game was going to be $60 bucks anyway so you can't complain about this move. I personally have no interest in Jam but still a nice marketing move. I wonder how much I can sell the download code for on Ebay?

Seriously though, now that EA has Magic and other legends for the Wii can someone please explain to me why we can't have them on Live? I realize there is no shot at Jordan but give us something.

Oh come on don't be foolish^^ They wouldn't have decided to do it this way if it wouldn't be profitable. Don't even think that way that you're getting 2 for 1 here^^ Plus, you don't get the whole experience..

I don't get how a person could say ''poor move'' ea. That's a great news and a smart move by ea, you get to have 2 different kind of game one for simulation one for arcade and fun, so cheers.

I'm looking forward to elite 11 so hopefully i get to play jam,too. Great.

The big news is the true physics but packaging NBA Jam with it is also HUGE. All of you have played Jam back in the day and with updated graphics and players it is going to be a ton of fun. Plus, 2 on 2 online is gonna be great. Big ups to EA. Now if 2K would do something special besides whore out Michael Jordan we would have great options this year.

I'm not sure of the mental stability of the ones saying ''poor move'' ea. That's a great news and a smart move by ea, you get to have 2 different kind of game one for simulation one for arcade and fun, so cheers.

Definitely good words to try and discuss reasonable in a forum..
Man just read my whole comment if you don't get it. For the people who don't want Elite but would love Jam, it's a misery. Try argue in a different way next time around.

Then please tell me how much would it be, if the jam on its own to be in stores?

It would be no less than this price so yes that's my argument.

this is ea's way to make more money because they know 2k is gonna be hard to compete with.

Maybe elite is gonna be pretty lacking.... seems strange to me that they would bundle this. EA are all about the $$$$

Was thinking the same. Hope we are both wrong and Elite really delivers as it's known Nba Jam is a quality product but not for everyone.

Mj, the new player movement, and the IGN previews are the reason EA made this move. Though I like this decision it kind of spells bad news for Elite 11 alone.

lol you don't get it.
Jam on the Wii will be around 50€ (not dollars!) and there's a mode which contains at least 20h of gameplay experience. This mode won't be in the ps3/x360 product. Take it as you will, can't argue against these facts. And you can't argue against the wish of many people to buy Jam as a stand-alone product.

Meh.. I really have no incentive to want to play NBA Jam at this point, it was fun 18year ago.

EA already knows at this point that Elite 11 can't stand on its own when facing 2k11 . Theyre going to lose in h2h sales vs 2k without some incentive... so they decided to scrap XBLA and PSN downloads, by making you buy Elite.

At some point though I do wonder, if Elite sales are bad to begin with, will EA reverse their stance and still make a XBLA and PSN if Elite is getting crushed in sales?

I'm not sure loling to anyone's post is any better word of choice mate.

The thing is i edited my post and my argument stands solid so.
