Kevin McHale? In NBA Jam?

The episode of Parks & Recreation that had Detlef Schrempf on it was great.

Nice to see Dennis Rodman collecting a paycheck. That he will probably blow on expensive high-heels.

I seriously hope they launch this game with Cleveland's team being Lebron and Shaq.

He should be wearing the high-heels and a feather boa in the game.

I have a bad feeling this won't sell but then I think casual families might think it looks really good so they might buy it. I hope it sells well. Cmon EA throw some money out there for advertisements.

Looks interesting, but they seriously need to slow down the gameplay footage. It's way too fast to see any details in it, and the speed is a little sickening. We get it, it's supposed to be heart-pounding and awesome, but the game itself should be good enough to represent that without needing to remix the footage so heavily. Ugh.

Such a waste.  Sucks for the developers and producers to get held down by their contract with Nintendo.  Forcing such a good game to only release on a dead product is so sad.
 
But then again, Nintendoo might have payed them a ton to keep them exclusive.  Since they know it wont sell on the Wii.  But would sell gangbusters on real consoles.  Especially XBLA. 
 
To bad the Wii is a joke.  Hopefully the devs will manage a way to sell it for a real console.  A console that gamers actually play and not kids and sad adults only.

Hahaha, what is this bullshit?
 
Not only that, but the game IS coming to PS3 and 360. So not only are you a fanboy for no reason, but an ignorant one too.

It's not really faster than the original gameplay, see below.

There was recently an ESRB leak where the ratings board rated nba jam for the 360 and PS3 so its probably no longer a wii exclusive. On your other comments though. Don't forget, the wii is in first place in this generation of the console wars. More people have wiis than 360's or PS3's. So far its the undeniable leader in this generation of consoles.  You can say it's a dead failure of a joke because you don't like it, but that isnt a sound argument.
 
If only we could harness "hardcore" gamers irrational hatred of the wii, we could end the energy crisis today.

I'm quite excited about this game, even though I've never played an nba jam game before. Just like to know if this is will be a multiplayer game? I really need to find a game to fill the crazy-party-game void thats been in my life since I got sick of warioware smooth moves (yeah, I played that a lot to get sick of it).

I don't think Schrempf had any more than 15 dunks in his entire career. That's a weird addition.

looks cool, but get new gameplay footage, EA. That disrespectful Lebron is no longer a part of Cleveland.
