NBA Jam was rigged.
http://sourcefednews.com/nba-jam-rigged/
Back in the 90′s, the Chicago Bulls were unbeatable, unless you were playing the arcade game, NBA Jam. In a recent interview with ESPN’s magazine, the video game’s lead designer, Mark Turmell, revealed that NBA Jam was rigged against the Bulls. Turmell is a Detroit Pistons fan and told the sports magazine: “If there was a close game and anyone on the Bulls took a last second shot, we wrote special code in the game so that they would average out to be bricks. There was the big competition back in the day between the Pistons and the Bulls, and since I was always a big Pistons fan, that was my opportunity to level the playing field.” There was also a special code written in to lower Scottie Pippins ratings whenever he came up against the Pistons. According to Turmell, fights would break out in arcades over who’s turn it was to play. Midway eventually sold more than 20,000 units and was the first to have secret characters players could unlock. |

that was where you could input the rookie and HOF names and they would pop up in create a player right? That was EA Sports first success at screwing athletes out of licensing fees.

My mistake. that was NBA Live 96.
Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley were not included due to licensing issues. They did however exist as hidden players in the console version of the game. Players could unlock them by entering their surnames (along with the surnames of various legends and rookies from the draft class of 1995) in Create-a-Player. I played the shit outta that game. I think I am gonna play a quick game tonight on my arcade when I get home.
