NBA Showtime: NBA on NBC is an arcade-style basketball video game developed by Midway for the Sony PlayStation 1. Released in 1999, it reflects the genre's emphasis on high-flying dunks and fast-paced gameplay over realistic simulation. Players can choose from real NBA teams and compete in 2-on-2 matches reminiscent of the classic NBA Jam series, with exaggerated player abilities and accessible controls. Its graphical style is vibrant, featuring exaggerated character models and signature on fire boosts, while the iconic NBA on NBC theme song adds to the authentic broadcast feel.
