[Shieldwolf]

[Mike]

oops my bad that isn't what your looking for

[HeadRusch]

I owned that game.....no...wait...I OWN that game.....Apple II+...in glorious greenscreen

There was nothing better than watching that backboard shatter!

[kspiff]

That was the single coolest basketball game EVER

I still play that on my Apple ][e emulator. I play my son. He is 13 and he laughs at the graphics. He does like to play beyond castle wolfenstien though. He says that is a cool game.

I had that on the C64..... Gawd I LOVED that game!!!!

[HeadRusch]

Please, beat your son...and teach him the way of the true gamer: Graphics always get prettier, its gameplay that matters,a nd that game is still fun to play to this DAY!

Of course he's probably asking "Whos Dr. J? Whos larry bird? White guys played basketball!?!?!"

[Frostillicus]

I had it for my Atari 800XL...that game did rock.  I remember spending long hours trying to shatter the backglass.  

[Hellnation]

The game sounds cool but Wolfenstein and 4d sports driving rock!  


I spent a lot of time playing those!


Ahhh, old days!

Funny you should mention it, but there were recently a series of pictures on RGVAC from a guy who bought out the entirety of Dr J's (the real one) arcade collection. One of the highlights was a Star Wars delivered straight to the great one from the factory, and played some obscenely low number of times. Was pretty neat.
