Great Basketball (グレートバスケットボール), known simply as Great Basket in Brazil, is a sports game developed and published by Sega for the Sega Master System. It was released internationally as part of the Great series of sports games.
Contents
Gameplay
The game is a basketball game that can be played by one or two players. It features eight teams, representing different countries. Teams consist of five players. Games are divided into two halves, each three minutes long, with a halftime show in between. If the game is tied, a 90-second overtime period is played (and additional overtime periods are played until a team wins). In the one-player game, the player chooses a team and plays a tournament against a series of opponents (which are chosen by the player before each game). The player wins the gold medal by winning seven games in a row or loses the tournament by losing two games. In two-player games, each player chooses a different team and plays a single match against each other.
The game has multiple fouls: charging (one player runs into another), pushing (a player pushes or bumps the player with the ball), and traveling (a player jumps and lands while retaining possession of the ball). The other team gains possession of the ball when a foul is committed. The ball can also bounce out of bounds if a pass is not completed, which likewise awards possession of the ball to the other team.
Teams
Great Basketball features eight national teams, which have different strengths. After selecting a team, the game plays an excerpt of the country's national anthem.
