Technical information

The announcer's character model consists of 18,357 polygons, including 17,183 polygons for the body^[19] and 1174 polygons for the shadow.^[20] This was the highest character polygon count in any video game at the time, surpassing the character polygon counts of Shenmue (up to 14,361 polygons), up until it was surpassed the following year by Virtua Fighter 4 (on the Sega NAOMI 2 arcade system) which had about 20,000 polygons per character.^[21] Sports Jam also had the highest character polygon count of any consoles game at the time (the highest on any other console was up to 15,000 polygons in Dead or Alive 3 and Dead or Alive Ultimate on the Xbox) up until the release of the Xbox 360 in 2005.^[22]
