NBA Jam for Nintendo Wii

Boooooooom-shaka-laka! EA Sports is bringing back the classic, most beloved arcade basketball game ever - NBA Jam, exclusively for the Nintendo Wii. Originally made back in 1993 for video arcades, NBA Jam was a humongous hit, with exciting, over-the-top, cartoony 2-on-2 basketball action that defied both traditional basketball rules as well as the laws of gravity and physics. It was the basketball game for people who didn't like or even know how to play basketball. And it even let you play as Bill Clinton if you knew how to unlock the character. Now EA Sports is reinventing the game for the 21st century with all-new graphics and physics, as well as new game modes and features. No word yet on whether Clinton is coming back, or the Mortal Kombat characters, or whether the new game will still cheat to ensure that the Pistons always beat the Bulls. One nice update that we can confirm: You won't have to keep feeding quarters into your Wii to keep playing! Hooray for the modern world! Slam-a-jamma!
