The game is a two-on-two basketball game with fast, arcade-style gameplay. Players can play any of the NBA teams of the time, with each team having a roster of six players with different statistics from which to choose. Matches consist of four quarters, each three minutes long. The goal is to outscore the other team; baskets from within the three-point line are worth two points, and shots from outside of it are worth three points. There are no fouls, free throws, or violations except goaltending and a 24-second shot clock. Teams can substitute players between quarters.

If players enter their initials and birth dates for record-keeping, they can play a tournament against every other team in the league. The tournament mode can be played by a single player with an AI teammate or by two players on the same team. If players do not enter their initials, they play a practice game instead. Practice games can be played by up to four players (using a [[6Player]]).
 +
 
 +
Players are moved around the court with the D-Pad. Players can use "Turbo" by holding {{R}}, which makes them run faster, jump higher, and shoot and pass better. Using turbo expends the turbo meter, but the meter replenishes when it is not used. The game adds "Extreme," used by holding {{L}}, which is turbo with even more heightened effects. Extreme drains the turbo meter twice as fast, however.
 +
 
 +
The game also has a Computer Assistance feature enabled by default that increases the precision of the losing team's shots to ensure a more competitive game.

Unlike its predecessors, ''NBA Jam Extreme'' was not developed by [[Midway Games]]. Instead, Acclaim Entertainment bought the rights to the name "NBA Jam" and tasked [[Sculptured Software]] with producing a 3D basketball game with a similar theme (before going down a more realistic route starting with ''NBA Jam 99''). Many of the staff of ''[[NBA Jam: Tournament Edition]]'' would instead go on to create the 2D ''[[NBA Hang Time]]'', released in the same year.

NBA Jam Extreme (NBA JAM エクストリーム) is a 1996 arcade game by Acclaim, an entry in the NBA Jam series (and the last to see release on a Sega platform). It was ported to the Sega Saturn by Sculptured Software in 1997, and introduces full real-time 3D to the series.

Gameplay

The game is a two-on-two basketball game with fast, arcade-style gameplay. Players can play any of the NBA teams of the time, with each team having a roster of six players with different statistics from which to choose. Matches consist of four quarters, each three minutes long. The goal is to outscore the other team; baskets from within the three-point line are worth two points, and shots from outside of it are worth three points. There are no fouls, free throws, or violations except goaltending and a 24-second shot clock. Teams can substitute players between quarters.

If players enter their initials and birth dates for record-keeping, they can play a tournament against every other team in the league. The tournament mode can be played by a single player with an AI teammate or by two players on the same team. If players do not enter their initials, they play a practice game instead. Practice games can be played by up to four players (using a 6Player).

Players are moved around the court with the D-Pad. Players can use "Turbo" by holding R, which makes them run faster, jump higher, and shoot and pass better. Using turbo expends the turbo meter, but the meter replenishes when it is not used. The game adds "Extreme," used by holding L, which is turbo with even more heightened effects. Extreme drains the turbo meter twice as fast, however.

The game also has a Computer Assistance feature enabled by default that increases the precision of the losing team's shots to ensure a more competitive game.

Tip-Off
Each game starts with a tip-off, where a player from each team leaps for possession of the ball by rapidly pressing A. Possession of the ball goes to the home team (team two) at the beginning of the second and fourth quarters and to the visiting team (team one) at the beginning of the third quarter, regardless of who wins the tip-off or who had possession of the ball at the end of the last quarter.

Defense
When the player's team does not have possession of the ball, the player can jump to block the opposing team's shots with A or C. If the ball is on the downward trajectory of its arc when it is blocked, the player is charged with goaltending and the other team receives points for a successful basket. However, if the ball touches the rim of the basket, any player on either team can grab it. If a player blocks two shots in a row, the player is "Smokin'" and can goaltend without penalty, which lasts until the opposing team makes a shot.

When near an opposing player, the player can try to steal the ball with B. The ball flashes white when the other team touches it. If the player has turbo, the player can shove another player with R+B. Shoving can cause the other player to drop the ball or move another player out of the way to clear a shot for a teammate.

Offense
When the player's team has possession of the ball, the player can perform a jump shot by holding A or C. The ball is released when the button is released; releasing the button at the apex of the leap leads to a more accurate shot but increases the risk of a defender blocking or stealing the ball. Shooting while running toward the basket with turbo performs a lay-up or a dunk. If a player makes three baskets in a row, the player is "Smokin'," which gives the player permanent turbo for the next three shots or until the opposing team makes a shot.

The player passes the ball with B. The player can perform a jump pass by pressing B after jumping with A or C. Opponents can intercept the ball as it is being passed.

When playing with an AI teammate, the player can force the AI to shoot with A or C or to pass with B.

History

Development

Unlike its predecessors, NBA Jam Extreme was not developed by Midway Games. Instead, Acclaim Entertainment bought the rights to the name "NBA Jam" and tasked Sculptured Software with producing a 3D basketball game with a similar theme (before going down a more realistic route starting with NBA Jam 99). Many of the staff of NBA Jam: Tournament Edition would instead go on to create the 2D NBA Hang Time, released in the same year.
