Super Real Basketball (スーパーリアルバスケットボール) is a 1990 basketball game by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive. When released in the US, it was given the endorsement of professional basketball coach Pat Riley and renamed Pat Riley Basketball.

Gameplay

The game is a 3D basketball game typical for the time. C passes and A shoots the ball when in your possession. When in the opponent's possession, some button — possibly A (TODO) — intercepts the ball.

Teams

Super Real Basketball lacks an official NBA license so uses eight teams named after US cities.

  • Seattle
  • Denver
  • Los Angeles
  • Dallas
  • Houston
  • Detroit
  • Boston
  • New York

History

Prior to receiving the endorsement of Pat Riley, the North American version of the game was initially known under the working title of Super Basketball. When Riley's endorsement was acquired, this title became Pat Riley's Slammin' and Jammin' Basketball before settling on the final name.
