Editorial Review
Showing off the extreme attitude of the arcade smash hit NBA Jam, Midway's NBA Showtime: NBA on NBC brings intense two-on-two arcade-style hoops to the Dreamcast. The emphasis is on fanatical basketball, with gravity-defying dunks and over-the-top animations. The game lets you select from 140 actual superstars representing all 29 NBA teams. Throw in wacky unlockable players such as team mascots and characters from other Midway games, and NBA Showtime: NBA on NBC is a fun departure from the more down-to-earth basketball simulations. Complementing the goofy gameplay is a feature-rich player editor, where you can customize everything from your created player's height, weight, and ability to clothing and facial features. With a TV-style presentation and impressive visuals, this is one hoops game that any arcade sports fan will enjoy. Simply put, if you liked NBA Jam, you'll love NBA Showtime. --Sajed Ahmed Pros: - Remarkable in-game graphics, and even more impressive replays
- Detailed sideline commentary
- 4-player simultaneous action makes it a great party game
- Endorsed by Shaquille O'Neal--what more could you want?
Cons: - 2-on-2 arcade basketball has been around forever
- Shallow arcade play, without lasting depth or long-term playability

Not quite "NBA Jam" on Xbox but the best you can get on Dreamcast April 17, 2007
Blake Adams (NJ, USA)
After playing NBA Jam on my friends Xbox I really wanted to get a similar game for the used Sega Dreamcast I had bought for $20. This game is no NBA Jam but it's as close as your going to get for the Dreamcast. If your not comparing it with any other basketball titles then you're definitely going to love this game. Like most basketball games though, this is not exactly realistic since you can pull off all kinds of crazy moves the real NBA stars could only dream of. The controls are easy to get the hang of and the game has most of the features you would expect from a game like this.
Conclusion: If your looking for a basketball game for your Dreamcast then this is what you were looking for!

 NBA JAM on Steroids July 25, 2004
Dante Scudella (Arizona)
If you're going to buy this game, ask yourself a question, Did I like NBA JAM on SNES? If the answer is YES then buy this game. If the answer is NO and you want a more realistic basketball game go for NBA 2K or NBA 2K1. The gameplay is much the same is NBA JAM, 2 buttons each for turbo, shoot/jump & pass/steal. This is a fun game, don't get me wrong, but I also enjoyed NBA JAM back in the day. Creating a player is very worth it, as you tend to feel a connection with your player. As you progress your character gets stronger, faster and so on as you distribute attribute points both from answering trivia questions and from winning games. So, ask yourself that one little question, and base your decision off that.
The fast speed b-ball game (great!) December 15, 2002
This is about the best basketball game for Nintendo 64 (I think). You can do every thing in it. Creat players, make a hot spot for your player, do insane dunks and insane shots. Make your player look crazy, have him be a team mascot, make him have an afro, make him look like shaq, kobe and much more! You can change your player so that he can be short, tall, fat, skinny, good at 3's bad at 3's good/bad at dunks and so much more. I like this game because it is fast paced not like some other games. This is a fast pace game if your are winning by 10 you most likely won't be winning by far for long. This game is also a 2 on 2 game (which I like), because it is a lot easyer to find who you are. The only bad thing (this is not that bad it is sort of cool) is that if you are the shortest that you can get (5'8") you can pack (block) someone who is 6'9"!

I bought NBA Showtime with the purchase of my Dreamcast hoping for some real basketball. I was sure disappointed. After playing it twice I put it away for good. The game is stupid. NBA Showtime has the worst gameplay ever. The computer can jump 50 feet in the air to make a block then swish a full-court shot. The graphics are terrible. The players' muscles' are bigger than their heads and they look very unrealistic. This game blows! It's just like NFL QB Club except for basketball, an NBA 2KX wannabe! Do not buy this game. Midway sure know's how to [mess] games up!
