Play NBA Jam - Tournament Edition on Snes Online

NBA Jam Tournament Edition came out on the Super Nintendo in 1995, a Midway release that built on the original's arcade success. It was a solid addition to the SNES library, a time when sports games were starting to embrace more over the top action alongside the traditional sims.

You control a team of two NBA players, working together to score more points than the opposing team before the clock runs out. The main objective is simple: win the game. Signature mechanics include the ability to perform exaggerated, gravity defying dunks, often from near half court, and a physical shove move that can send an opponent stumbling across the screen. The pacing is relentless, a constant back and forth with very few stoppages in play. It feels like pure, chaotic fun from the moment the ball is tipped.
