NBA Action 98 (NBAアクション98) is a basketball game released as part of Sega's NBA Action series for the Sega Saturn and Windows PCs.

The Expert Software PC release was named simply NBA Action and had different cover art. Screenshots on the back cover confirm it to be the same game and not the earlier NBA Action.

Gameplay

Due to Michael Jordan pulling out of the NBA Players Accociation in favour of his own licensing deals, NBA Action 98 replaces Jordan with "1 Guard", who wears a 98 shirt.
