Did you guys noticed how after the dunks the backboard and rim shook?
That was pretty nice. Lakers are my team so Kobe and Pau are going to be my team. Artest likely will be my sub.
Maxi is dead. I killed him and took his posts and changed genders.

Also I like the added touch of the flexible hoop and backboard.

The trailer does look pretty sweet. The game looks a lot better than I assumed it would.

The players look absolutely ridiculous with the pasted heads on, but I kind of feel like that's part of the charm.

As much as I want this game, I don't know if it's worth $50.

I can't wait to play some online and unlock my Obama Biden team

I also hope Samuel L Jackson is in the game.

If it is anywhere as fun as it looks(like the original) then it is worth $50 easily, especially if online play is flawless.

Have you played the original NBA Jam to get inspiration for this game?

Is there a certain kind of pressure involved in creating a sequel to/updated version of a beloved classic?

Questions to ask:

About how many secret characters do you expect to have in the game?
Can we count on a Team Obama (Obama/Biden/Hilary)?

Any classic players? Like Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, etc. etc.?

Are motion controls used in the game? and if yes, how are they used?
Is there classic control support, wiichuck support and single wiimote support?

Do you feel that motion controls enhance the immersion into the game?
Do you often find your self jumping out of your seat with wiimote held high in the air during a critical shot or standing in my opponents face having just slammed the wiimote and nunchuck to down towards my lap because I didn't want to "fake the funk on a nasty dunk"?

Is it true that the breaking of the backboard is out in this game? Is it also true that it's because of the backboard manufacturers not wanting to make their product look flawed?
 
The videos make it seem like you've recaptured the look and feel of the Original NBA JAM and the T.E., will my skills from the old school version translate into instant familiarity with the new version too?

how is the online component going to add to this experience? Is there WiiSpeak support?


The videos of this game makes the front of my pants swell(with nostalgia). Can I have a free copy!? please!?

I guess Megabyte isn't going to answer my question.

Is there going to be 2 teams for each team?

I mean a Classic Team and a modern team?

If this is true can you select which players you have on each team? Like for the Lakers can you select players from different eras of that team and place them in one team?

Is Tag mode in the game?

Is there going to be an all star team in the game and a Rookies team? In NBA Jam TE there was like 20 combinations of players for the Rookie team.

How many combonations of players can be in the modern team and Classic team?

Any secret characters in the game?

What's the targeted price point?  I don't see this game doing very well if it's a full $50 game, but if it's $20 or $30 it could be pretty huge.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

Is it possible to announce who will be providing the play-by-play?

Or to put it another way: Gus Johnson: Yay or nay?

I don't know about play by play, but the guy who voiced the original is voicing this one too.

Apparently, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird are the "final boss" team in the game and this is not an April Fools joke.

Magic Johnson and Larry Bird Confirmed for NBA Jam

Was Michael Jordan too expensive to get into the game? I'm still hoping for more Hall of Famers like Charles Barkley. Yes, he needs to shut up most of the time, but I was a Sixers fan back in the day. Celebrity teams would be sweet too...

Also, lulz @ Gilbert Arenas. That'll teach you to be an asshole....

I think I mentioned that at least Bird was in the game in this thread.

Anyway do you have a "Jamism" A catch phrase to put in NBA JAM?
EA will put your phrase in the game. You got to go to the Facebook page linked to in the below video and post your Catch phrase.
Well here you can see all the details.

Did we ever have that interview?
