Converse Hardcore Hoops, also known as Converse City Ball Tour, is an unreleased street basketball game set to be published by Virgin Interactive Entertainment around 1995 or 1996.
Converse Hardcore Hoops was shown at E3 1995 and was set to release on a wide variety of systems, including the Super NES, PlayStation, PC and three Sega consoles; the Sega Mega Drive, Sega 32X and Sega Saturn[3]. It was set to be a two-on-two half-court basketball game, however the project was drastically changed after performing poorly in focus groups[4]. It was claimed at one point to have had twelve players and 15,000 frames of animation, but was cancelled entirely during the summer of 1995[4].
Very early screenshots (possibly mockups) were documented in some gaming magazines, although the version cannot be identified, nor can it be confirmed that the game was ever playable. Reportedly Virgin dropped its support for cartridge-based systems around the time of cancellation, with their last cartridge game, Spot Goes to Hollywood being handled by Acclaim Entertainment (in the US at least)[4].
